Pets are family, and taking care of them is a form of self-care for owners, too. Mr. Nigel’s Salon Care for Pet Hair really rolls out the red carpet for its four-legged clients. Mr. Nigel’s pairs your pet with a stylist, who takes care of him or her for the whole visit. Some of the luxurious menu items include a blueberry facial, hemp shampoo and a grapeseed oil pad and nose application. Mr. Nigel’s, an upscale, full-service pet hair salon named after owner Michelle Goldfarb’s goldendoodle, is basically a puppy palace and a mini-getaway for your beloved animal — who really deserves a break from all the stress of being the glue that holds your life together. mrnigels.com.
