I am pleased to announce that I am ready to offer Certified Canine and Feline Massage Therapy in your home beginning July 6th, with new safety procedures in place:
- I will only be booking one appointment per day to considerably reduce the potential for cross contamination. Know that yours will be the only home I will visit (besides my own) on the day of your scheduled appointment.
- I will wear a non-medical mask/face covering for the entire duration of our appointment(s). If you live in a condo/apartment building, I will also wear my mask in your lobby, elevator and hallway.
- I will wear a separate non-medical/face covering as well as cotton gloves when/if travelling on TTC on my way to our scheduled appointment(s). Gloves will be sealed in a ziplock type bag and stowed prior to entering your home.
- I will bring my own soap, towel and hand sanitizer, washing my hands before and after your pet’s massage (as usual). Hand sanitizer will only be used after appointments to avoid getting any on your pets fur.
- Drop sheets and mats/bedding are washed with unscented detergent between all appointments. Clean drop sheets and towels will be transported inside plastic bags to and from appointments (so they do not contaminate or become contaminated by my carry bag).
- For the comfort and safety of your pet, I cannot use gloves when performing their massage, but as mentioned, I will thoroughly wash my hands prior to and after their session.
- If I become sick, I will cancel/reschedule our appointment. Please let me know if you need to cancel/reschedule from your end as well.
- If you live in a condo/apartment building, please let me know what safety/visiting procedures are in place so I am ready to sign in/hand sanitize etc. prior to our appointment.
I look forward to seeing you and your fur babies once again! Contact me at kurik9massage@gmail.com or call or text 416-471-3955 to book your appointment or if you have any questions.
And remember, I’m also available for Distance Reiki sessions — the ultimate in physically distanced treatment! 😊
Regan Macaulay
Kuri K9 Massage
I am a Toronto-based mobile Certified Canine and Feline Massage Therapist.
Our pets’ lives are all too short, and parents of fur babies are well aware of this.
In 2013 I started my business - Kuri K9 Massage, to help your pets live healthier, happier lives by relieving physical and emotional pain and tension, thereby also relieving stress for fur baby moms and dads—boosting quality of life together for longer.

I have worked with dogs and cats in one capacity or another my entire working life. Ever since I was a small child, I have made strong connections with animals of all sorts. I could empathize with them, quickly creating incredible bonds through my calm demeanour and positive energy, winning their trust when others couldn't. Friends, family and even strangers have commented that I have "a way" with animals.
I have continued to strengthen this connection with animals, especially dogs and cats, over the years by working with them in many different settings and circumstances, by being an animal parent all my life, and by being attuned to Reiki Level II (healing through the channeling of energy - something animals are very much in tune with). Reiki is a non-invasive technique I carry with me and supports my every interaction with both canine and feline clients. My massage therapy sessions are thereby strengthened, more meaningful and positive both physically and emotionally to the pets I work with.
I also find the dog’s or cat’s Moms and Dads relaxing during their loved one’s session! I am proud to have forged excellent relationships with both my dog/cat clients and my human clients as well. I feel I am a part of their team.

Praise for Kuri K9
"I took up Regan’s offer of Reiki for my cat, Lews Therin, because he’s getting older and was dealing with the transition of having my sister and her two toddlers moving in with us. Regan’s long-distance Reiki therapy soothed Lews Therin and let him nap more soundly during the day, which ultimately helped with his patience and confidence in regards to the children. I was impressed by Regan’s ability to sense, even from such a great distance, how Lews Therin was feeling and I found her to be a pleasure to work with. She opened my eyes to the possibilities for reiki therapy on animals and their efficacy."

"I love to have Regan from Kuri K9 come to massage my pets. We have monthly appointments and she even comes to me at my pet grooming salon to see my dogs while I work. The service is totally convenient and I see the difference in my pets. My older miniature poodle benefits from her monthly massage and i see the difference in her mobility. Regan also sees my other dogs who are show dogs and preform at their highest potential when they feel good, especially after a massage. My dogs are relaxed and happy to see Regan every time she walks through the door." - Nadia B., Nationally Certified Master Groomer, 2017 & 2018 Canadian Groomer of the Year, current member of Groom Team Canada
We booked a massage for our senior dog Casey, for her muscle atrophy and arthritis. Casey is typically not great with strangers and especially when they touch her back, but Regan had no issue and she was very relaxed from the start. After the second session, Casey was in a better mood, and sprinted around the block (typically she is so slow, she needs to be dragged). While I know she won't be healed of her arthritis, I'm glad to know she feels some comfort from the therapy. - Casey's Mom, Rebecca C.

“...He’s a long boy and it (massage therapy) keeps him healthy and...keeps him flexible, and makes sure that he gets to be around to be my Top Dog for a very long time…"

Holly after her very first massage!
Holly has been feeling great since her massage. Literally slept for the rest of the day except for a short walk...Amazing to see how quickly she felt amazing after it. - Holly's mom, Pam C., Toronto Dog Walking & The Cat Sitter.
Pickles is the Runner-Up for Toronto's Top Dog 2019
Regan was so great! Pickles is a it fearful of new people and she totally respected her boundaries and was very professional! Once there was lots of treats flowing, Pickles trusted Regan and loved the massage she was given! - Miss Pickles' (@miss.picklesthepug) Mom, Margaret S.
Isis and Casper
Regan has a very comforting presence and was such a help with my two cats when I moved from a condo to a house. I would highly recommend her massages for your fur babies! - Isis and Casper's mom, Priya R.
Waldo and Homer
Regan has given massages once a week to both dogs for four years. She's GREAT! Both dogs love her, she unwinds tension and puts them at ease." - Waldo and Homer's mom, Hannah R.
