We have been using Loretto for years. The dogs like him and the vet thinks he is amazing. He does whatever I need and makes my dogs look good. Average pricing and it's very nice not to subject the dogs to a loud grooming salon. He pulls up and Voila! read more

I was communicating with this business. I gave them availability for any time. Then they ghosted me. I mentioned that I had Parkinson's Disease and am having trouble finding a mobile groomer. I even asked for a recommendation for another if they were too busy. I still need a mobile groomer. I would like to talk to this company. read more

Loretto was on time and worked well with our 2 very big and hairy fur babies! No complaints here. Thank you!

Our Springer Spaniel dreaded grooming visits. It always took half a day. When we tried Loretto we were so pleased to see the gentle caring way he has with dogs. The best part is he comes to our house! I am always pleased with the bath and trim and the whole experience is good. read more

Loretto....poor Loretto. It is sad that you have to attempt to rewrite history to justify your inability to manage your customers appointments (blaming your phone is a convenient cop out)....you never offered a next day appointment to make up for your careless way you run your business. Moreover, on two different occasions you hurt our dog, You shaved her too closely on her stomach and neck that caused her to have burn marks and you knicked her paw with your razor. You have to get a grip. You screwed up and hurt a helpless animal. You should be ashamed of your storytelling. We know you are lashing out for other reasons that do not need to be exposed....but you know what they are, Pathetic. Loretto you and I know what happened. You admitted to us that you cut our dog by mistake....I forgave you. You did it again and we felt compelled to raise the issue. Bottom line is that you don't care about animals or your customers....and you hide behind your poor memory to block out your mistakes....how sad. Your ridiculous excuse about your phone mistake....trying to fit us in...so weak. It was your mistake....really? You forgot your scissors one time to rescheduling appointments. You are a sad excuse for a business person. You need to get a grip and pay attention to your other reviews....you are in denial. read more

Took a bit longer for Bear today but what matters is the great groom for my boy. He's a happy camper now and so are we.

Loretto was absolutely amazing...he's as close to a dog whisperer virtuoso as you can get. Our extremely anxious Springer Spaniel had, let's just say, a not-so-great experience at a local big box groomer last summer which resulted in a 2 month stint with the cone of shame. Needless to say, we were reluctant to take him back. Before Loretto came to our house, I provided him with the details of our unfortunate experience. With confidence, Loretto told me not to worry. He explained that we would "start fresh knowing about the past but not having it so present". Right then, I knew Loretto was a perfect match for our dog. After today's wonderful experience, we will continue to call on Loretto for BOTH of our dogs' grooming needs! read more

Still loving my dog groomer after all this time! Loretto is the BEST! He gets busy so I usually text him for appointments. My dog loves him and he does a fabulous job. Plus he's a mobile groomer and comes to me - DOUBLE BONUS. No seriously this is really hard to beat. If you doubt this, scroll down and read the not recommended reviews down below. Loretto is truly the dog whisperer. read more

If I could rate Loreto a "0", I would do it without hesitation. He is not who he appears to be. Grooming skills: He badly sliced our dog's paw. He shaved too closely to our dog's skin that it was very red in multiple places. He supposedly cut our dog's nails, but they kept getting caught on our rugs and we were forced to go to our Vet to get them trimmed. Since having the Vet trim our dog's nails, there has not been any getting caught on the rugs. We have seen Loreto go from taking an hour to groom our dog down to 30 minutes. He is cutting corners and not doing quality work. Scheduling and Commitment: You can never count on Loreto to remember appointments he makes with his customers. He has been having our groomer for over a year and we always have to chase him down and reconfirm to make sure he arrives when he committed to. He has shown up without his shears. He has called and canceled saying he is having a bad day and can't make it. However, with our last appointment, when we called to confirm, he admitted forgetting to write it down and had an attitude when we wanted to have an appointment in the same week. He complained that he had other appointments and was unable to fit us in...so the people who made appointments after us got priority treatment over us. And he does not follow up when it suits him....he has not bothered to call us back when he said he would two days ago. He has bragged to us that he is trying to only work three days a week and he tries to put as many customers in a day as he can. An admirable goal, but why sacrifice your customers and their animals to achieve it. He clearly does not have your animals best interest in mind....his schedule....Yes...time off is very important to him! His pocketbook...most definitely!! We know him very well and I have been trying to get my wife to leave him for another groomer for a long time. His unprofessional behavior and rude treatment toward her finally pushed my wife over the edge. His harming of my dog did it for me a long time ago. Don't wait for your animal to be hurt....run from this guy...you won't be sorry. read more

I've taken My little Joey to a number of groomers in my area, then I discovered Loretto. He listens when I explain how I'd like Joey groomed. He not only does it, but Joey is not traumatized. I know Loretto loves dogs, and Joey knows it and trusts him and so do I. Make your life easy, give Bark-N-Bubbles a call, you will be glad you did, I'm glad I did. read more

What a joke of a company! I would NEVER recommend this guy. I scheduled him about 10 days out and was confirmed for our Tuesday 230-3 appt on MONDAY the day before. Come Tuesday morning he is blowing up my phone which isn't turned on because I'm busy with work (go figure) about wanting to come earlier. When my phone was turned back on I had a ton of messages from him and apparently he tried to call me a bunch from his messages about wanting to come earlier. I confirmed via text that it was still a 230-3pm appt. 5 minutes before 3pm I receive a message that he left the area because I wouldn't reply this morning. BRO, you confirmed YESTERDAY WITH ME! Who does business like this?!?! read more

Loretto is not a dog groomer he is a dog whisperer. We adopted Lila a month ago and she's being shy around us but when she saw Loretto this morning she ran to him. After her groom she looked better than we expected but must of all she was so happy to be around him. We highly recommend Loretto!!! read more

Awesome service and super convenient! Setting up the appointment was a breeze and he was amazing with our little guy. The best our dog has smelled ever!! We will definitely be using Bark-n-Bubbles again and you should too! read more

Loretto is such a wonderful groomer! He truly makes a connection with your animal and treats them with such love and concern. We've used him for years and now that our dog is older, she tends to shake when nervous or excited, so Loretto took extra time to work with her and make her comfortable. I would highly recommend him! read more

Loretto is a nice guy who seems to love what he does. My experience (and others it seems by reviews) was a bit disappointing. He arrived over an hour late, couldn't let me know because of phone problems and then the quality of work seemed rushed. My search for a good groomer continues. read more

We are dog sitting a stinky dog and don't really know how dog grooming places work. But, we were in desperate need of a grooming. After one call to Bark-n-Bubbles we booked an appointment easily and had a great experience. No more stinky dog. Claws clipped, fur combed, shampooed, glands expressed. Full service. Awesome service. We will be back. And, Schatzi loved it too. read more

Laretto has been grooming my senior dogs since 2013. I had never tried a mobile groomer before but loved the idea. And let me say, it's fantastic! Quick. Convenient. Priced extremely competitive. I'm very picky with the quality of care my fur babies receive while being groomed. This is why I refuse any type of crate drying situation. From their first groom he was very mindful of findings spots on both of the dogs that may get hit with the clippers. And they were never hit with his clippers, ever! If you are looking for a groomer who is cautious, compassionate, and patient with your dogs then he is the man. I value his opinion at the end of my pups groom as to how they responded. I highly recommend bark n bubbles! read more

I am so glad I found Loretto! He is great with my Pomeranians and asks what you want and does it with great care and concern. He was on vacation last week and squeezed me in early this morning since I am on vacation this week. I even recommended him to my daughter and everyone at work. Thanks Loretto!! read more

Bark-n-Bubbles - Bear is looking good! - Pet Groomers Near Me

Loretto was super friendly throughout the whole process. I contacted him via email and scheduled our dogs first appointment. He made the whole process very easy, and had no problem grooming our over anxious dog. Our dog is quite a barker and gets scared easily, and Loretto did great! When Jeffery (our dog) was all finished he looked great!! We will be going to Bark-N-Bubbles again!! Great job! :) read more

Very disappointed!!! I waited 3 weeks for an appointment since he was booked up. My appointment was for today at 4 pm. Loretto did not show up to groom my dog and he didn't call either. I left a message at 4:30 and did not receive a call back. I had even left work early since he only takes appointments during business hours. I DO NOT RECOMMEND. Don't waste your time. read more

I called and left 2 seperate messages and I never got a call back. This really bothers me. It seems like business's these days, just don't care to return calls. read more

Loretta is great with my dogs and does a wonderful job grooming them. It's so simple now to have him come to your home and he treats the dogs as if they were his. read more

All around we had a great experience! He was on time to our appointment and friendly. We have three mini Australian Shepherds and all three are neurotic in their own special way lol he handled each of their personalities with gentle ease and made sure they were more than comfortable. All of their cuts turned out great and they smell even better! My dad sat and watched the whole process (because our sensitive dogs can be emotional basket cases) but we've never seen them do better in the hands of a groomer. Thank you Loretto we appreciate the services you offer and our pups can't wait to see you next time. read more

A returned phone call or returned e-mail would be nice. I have tried contacting these people for almost 2 weeks and there has not been a response. Either they are out of business or should be out of business for not responding to customers. I don't know what their actual grooming is like but I can say their customer service sucks up to this point. read more

I set up a grooming appointment a while back and he never showed. No call, nothing. Guess he didn't want a new customer.

Had a appointment today at 11:30. No showed! Called 10 minutes later and straight to voice mail. Made an appointment a week ago and even texted him after our phone conversation with the time of the appointment and address and still no showed! Poor business... Had my girlfriend stay home from work for nothing! read more

This was my first time using a mobile groomer and I must say I was disappointed. I was charged extra for my dog being matted however all he did was shave her. He refused to trim her nails because they were "too long", her hair had uneven patches and she smelled as if he didn't even bathe her, and rather than cleaning the hair out of her ears he just clipped it so now my dog is digging at her ears. Iwill try mobile grooming again but not this company. read more

We had used Loretto in the spring to groom our two 12-year-old Golden Retrievers. He came on time & did a stellar job. His prices were very fair. Called him again recently, and again, came on time and we have two clean, groomed, happy dogs and two happy owners. Loretto is at the top of our list for dog grooming. read more

First Time using Barks-N-Bubbles for Charlie. Communicated through text and emails to schedule. Loretto is a professional and extremely knowledgeable. We will definitely use Loretto again and highly recommend!! read more

So, our dogs are very picky, a 10 year old Schipperke with separation anxiety who takes forever to groom, and a small 4 year old pinscher mix who takes about 10 minutes, tops. Before hand, our Schipperke had been injured at a Petsmart groomers (clipped her toe) and she's been wary of the groomers ever since! But the groomers here made her feel right at home! He took the time to make her feel comfortable and safe before starting, as he did with our smaller dog. Not only were they both happy after they were finished being groomed, but they have NEVER smelt so good and been so soft! And this was a last minute before the holidays grooming appointment! This will definitely be our go-to groomer from now on! They treat your pets like you'd treat them! I highly recommend them to anyone and everyone who loves their pups!! read more

First time using Bark- n- Bubble... We have 2 dogs that needed brush outs and all the trimmings. This was the best grooming experience ever, I will recommend Bark- n- Bubble to anyone and everyone. Loretto was awesome we have tried several groomers the area and no one compared to Loretto's knowledge and expertise. Stop looking, you found your groomer, trust me! read more

Our little dog was matted and required a special touch - which was provided well! He spent additional time discussing how we can avoid problems in the future. We look forward to our next appointment. read more

I attempted to get an appointment to have my dog groomed, although it took a couple of days to even get a text back .( do not call as they will not return your voicemail messages) after a series of reasonable questions which I answered all honestly, he did not like that I said my dog was old and moody. I gave some suggestions as to maybe muzzling him etc ( which I personally have never done) but just wanted to help out..he abruptly ended our convo and cancelled our appointment with a good luck. All dog groomers have to deal with moody dogs if your dog is at all like this do not attempt to use these services go elsewhere. read more

We used Bark-N-Bubble for about 1 year- it is convenient to have a mobile groomer if you are unable to drive- I was disappointed when the rates were raised (35% not commensurate with ability in my opinion)- it was just too expensive on a monthly basis- If you live in the Gold River area- I found a great groomer close by read more

HOLLA AT BARK-N-BUBBLES FOR YOUR MOBILE PET GROOMING NEEDS!! I contacted 4-5 different mobile pet groomers 2-3x and never even got a "we're too busy to recognize your call" communication. Bark-N-Bubbles sent out one of their reps and the family enjoyed the experience - inside the van was impressive too. Will DEFINITELY be doing business with Bark-N-Bubbles again - http://www.bark-n-bubbles.com/ read more

Loretto is the best! Groomed my two huge Newfoundlands and they look Fantastic! He handled my older newfie with such compassion and my younger puppy with patience.
