    the best place I ever gone to !! my Pom looks so good . the staff is very professional, and very nice. Felt very safely for my dog there.

    If I could give this place zero stars I would. I usually take my dog to Petsmart but thought I'd try a small business in the neighborhood for a change, NEVER AGAIN!!! If you have a Labradoodle please do not take him or her to this place. She has no idea of how to cut a Labradoodles hair. My dog had some matting and she shaved my dog down to her bones!!! Using a longer blade, to loosen the mattes, I could understand but she used the shortest blade possible! She also shaved the top of my dogs head, all around her nose and all the hair on her tail!!!! Completely unnecessary! Before and after pictures of my gorgeous dogs hair. How anyone can think that shaving a Labradoodle down to their skin is ok is beyond me! I also posted a link on the basics of grooming a Labradoodle. https://agapelabradoodles.com/basics-labradoodle-grooming/

    Took this handsome boy for a bath and we loved it. From the initial phone call to picking him up, everyone was so nice. Definitely coming here again!

    We are very happy with Bark Out Loud. They did a great job grooming our GSD. Ava is a shedder, so we got the furminator treatment. She is now smooth and glossy. Her big dog claws were clipped as well, not an easy job to do at home. It was a good experience all around. We will bring our small dog in next week and scheduled Ava again for December. Very happy!

    Ann did a great job on our Cockapoo pup, Izzy. He had been the victim of a horrible haircut, but Ann fixed him up and made him into pretty boy. He was sweet smelling, nails trimmed, paws cleaned up, cleaner than I've ever seen him. Gorgeous! Would highly recommend her and Bark Out Loud to anyone. Will be back.

    Cute bandana they put on him. Such good work!

    I am so pleased with the grooming services at Bark Out Loud. I took my 8 yr old shih tzu mix for the full grooming service. I got exactly what I asked for - not too short, beard intact but nicely thinned out, tail fluffy, and nails trimmed so they are smooth and not scratchy. I love that they don't use a cage but rather a leash attached to the wall. So much less stressful for my little guy. He looks adorable and not stressed. Pricing is very reasonable too. We will be back!

    See all

    So easy to schedule and get new looks for my pup. We've taken him here for years and always love how he looks after a nice, fresh cut.

    The service and staff are awesome and the bandanas they put on my dog are great this place should be known more.

    Noble Square, West Town

    I don't even know where to begin. We recently moved out of Chicago and guess the only thing that we…read moreare missing, John. I know we won't be able to find someone like him anywhere else and that makes me and my husband really sad. A. My dog loved going to John, he never felt stressed after John's haircut. B. Have you seen how clean his shop is? My jaw dropped when I first went there. C. His cuts are so amazing, Toby was getting complements constantly. D. Shampoo that he uses is amazing, smells so good. E. My dog is anxious, but John never had a problem working with him somehow , he usually never sits still for anyone. F. He is a professional groomer and I don't think you will find someone like him at least in Chicago area. I can go on and on. I don't think he needs my review but I just wanted to share for someone lucky who lives in the area and is able to get appointment at Clean Dog.

    Not sure what superlatives I can add to what many others have written except to say all of them are…read moretrue. One of the true pleasures of living in a big city it to discover treasures in the most unexpected of places. Who would think that dog grooming would be one such place but I consider CleanDog to be a treasure in Chicago. John brings a rare combination of pride or work and some kind of genius for dog grooming that is ineffable; he just has a feel and an incredible talent for working with dogs. What brought me in the door for our Maltipoo Bailey is that I was looking for someone who would not immediately resort to shears to deal with some matting (admittedly, we had let Bailey go and she was very matted). I know that taking her to our prior groomer would result in her coming home shivering and looking like a short-haired chihuahua. Reading the reviews here led us to CleanDog. In short, John did not disappoint. He is so kind and helpful and went the extra mile (and then another extra mile and then another after that). As others have experienced, we could not believe how wonderful she looked. In fact, it was the best she has ever looked, hands down. John patiently brushed her out, gave her a much needed bath, and then working his own unique magic, brought out the scissors and turned her into a show dog. I can't imagine taking her for grooming anywhere else in Chicago.
