First time grooming our aussie & I could not be happier with our decision to use Barkbus! Robert was so kind and gentle with our pup and did a phenomenal job! It's so convenient to have a groomer come to you, and they made it super easy & quick to book an appointment & they arrived timely. They also gave him a blueberry facial & now his face smells like blueberries I love it haha. Will be using them again when it's time to de-shed again!

I was intimidated by the few reviews about their punctuality, but I was pleasantly surprised by their communication and customer service. It seems they're really trying to step it up to ensure it doesn't happen again. I have used their service a total of 3 times and Calvin is an absolute gem of a groomer. He immediately identified my dog's breed and reassured me that he would work to calm her anxiety down. He's even made an effort to walk her out of the bus and update us after each visit. We are definitely sticking to their services! And prices are very reasonable for a mobile groomer, which is a major plus!

Update: I am adding a photo to this review because it clearly shows that my dog was not groomed properly. The sanitary trim was incomplete and uneven, with long, stray hair still left throughout his private area. This was not a finished groom. It appears he received a bath only, not the full grooming service that was paid for. After this review was posted, the company initially apologized and offered a follow-up grooming with a different groomer to correct the issues. The night before the scheduled appointment, they canceled and stated that we were "not a good fit," issuing a refund instead. No correction was ever provided. It is also important to clarify that my dog's temperament was not the issue. Cowboy is a high-energy but extremely docile dog. He is well trained, listens to commands, and has never shown aggression. He is not vicious, violent, or difficult to handle. Suggesting that the incomplete groom was due to his comfort level does not align with his behavior or with basic professional grooming standards.

I booked grooming for my 2 dogs last week. The groomer text me to change my appointment times at 6:20 AM this morning asking if I'd be available to change to a morning appointment rather than the afternoon. I agreed then they sent groomer to the wrong address I'm very disappointed in this experience so far.

Cooper had yet another great spaw day with Andrew! As usual, as soon as he sees the Barkbus van pull up, he gets excited and runs straight to the door. Thank you for always taking such great care of my best bud!

Happy Puppy

Happy puppy. What a wonderful experience. Olivia our groomer showed up on time and was very professional. She went the extra mile to make sure Kona our 1 year old Cavapoo felt welcome and loved. This is a much better option than taking her to a groomer where she was caged and surrounded by loud barking and anxiety. Yes, it cost more but it is worth every penny to know that a part of our family is less stressed and kept in a cool, calm and clean environment. This company takes the time to make your dog feel loved. I have already booked for another future appointment and my neighbor came out to book also. Kona was dolled up with bows and a scarf. The quality of products used is top tier. This is one happy puppy.

Bill S.

Very pleased. I was recommended by a salon where my boy use to go. the groomer said due to environment of salon my boy gets very anxious. I will say mobile grooming is pricier than salon -so expect that. Customer service was attentive. His groomer, Kat was wonderful. She understood my dog is anxious and assured me she will go at his pace and give him needed breaks. They send pictures throughout service. My little guy was happy, looked great and didn't want to leave her arms. Thanks barkbus.

I was worried about my German shepherd he's never been groomed. Michael was awesome. The dogs loved him. Great job all around. Barkbus and Michael have my business. Worth every penny.

Barkbus is a very professionally managed and run mobile dog grooming company. Booking is easy and the groomer arrives within the time frame promised. The groomer who took care of our dog is Elizabeth. She's very pleasant to work with and took great care of our pup. She even sent me a photo while the grooming was going on. Highly recommended.

Bubbles!
Cammie P.

We absolutely love the Barkbus groomer, Elizabeth, who has worked with our sassy cocker spaniel for over a year. Barkbus is very reliable, great with communication and hires kind and knowledgeable people. We are able to set up repeat visits with our preferred groomer and get regular reminders. Elizabeth is so amazing with our dog who HATES any grooming! Our dog runs to meet her with a wagging tail. Elizabeth has helped us to get skin irritations under control and always makes her look and smell wonderful. We love the postcards, too!

Bubble Bath and Blueberry Facial?  Yes please!
Lynnann W.

This has been a sensational first experience for Sidney and his Mommy! This company is exceptionally professional and their entire program is top notch. Needed mobile grooming and this place had excellent reviews across all platforms. We took the leap and Sid will tell you this is now a permanent monthly relationship for him and doesn't want me to be jealous! (Alyssa O, if you are lucky enough, will love on your fur family member sincerely.) Easy to find out pricing and setup an appointment online. Following morning a friendly phone call to tie up loose ends and educate us on how epic the communication will be during the process. Alyssa was a sweetheart with the photos of her spoiling Sidney; reflecting the process in real time. So consider... * Professional experienced groomers who all have "first responder" training for animals. * "At your door" convenient mobile grooming. * Arrive in a self-sustained state of the art van with 5-Star spa pampering ready and waiting. * Your pup falls asleep he's so content! Barkbus is worth every cent - invaluably totally trustworthy, will treat your pet like their favorite family member and keep you in timely touch throughout your pet's five-star spa day! Sid gives an all Four Paws Review!

I have worked for a dog groomer before. I know how jumpy scared dogs can be. Giant Schnauzers require a special haircut. I've been hearing so many stories about dogs being mistreated/injured/killed lately. 1. patient groomers? 2. Skillsfor Schnauz?

I don't think she mistreated my dog but he's a big boy. He's not a jumpy dog either.. I just think their smaller vans aren't good for large dogs.

I used to have no issues with Paw Sweet Paw years ago but after just brining my 1yr old rescue here twice that was enough. First time he was return smelling awful, accidents happen. Second time boarding with them (12 hours) he was returned to me COVERED in both pee and actual poop on him. Before he was return the second time, the staff told me he had a "little accident" and asked if I wanted him bathed or just wiped down. After already waiting an extra 1.5 hours because of the cut operational hours, I said just wiped down him down and I'll bath him later. It was clearly not a little accident and wasn't even wiped down. The attendant brought him out less than a minute later. Wiping down a dirty, poop covered dog would take longer than one minute. The extent of the odor took 3 baths and he is now dealing with multiple stomach issues results in vomiting and diarrhea. He also was returned with a clearly visible scab and swelling on his nose. Trying to contact management has been extremely disappointing after a very disappointing 12 hr dog boarding visit. The asst. manager seemed to be the only one to take the time to respond and discuss these issues, but very limited to how she can remedy or alleviate some of these issues. I have been waiting for a week now on Janelle, the top Manager of both locations to reach out with fur to we discussions about the incredibly low standards, cleanliness, and overall care for our pets staying there. Seems like Janelle couldn't care less for the well-being of the dogs she is being entrusted to take care of while she is the one in charge from what I've been told.

After reaching out to several grooming places for quotes, one place stood out--they called me back promptly after I expressed my interest, and they offered a fantastic first-time customer discount, which I thought was a wonderful touch. I took my dog there, unsure of what to expect but hopeful. To my surprise, she seemed incredibly comfortable with the groomer right away, which is unusual because she's typically a bit skittish around new people. I was amazed when she walked over to the scale on command and actually sat down--a feat she rarely accomplishes with anyone other than me! I explained exactly what I wanted, dropped her off, and to my delight, I received a call much sooner than expected saying she was ready. When I picked her up, she looked absolutely fabulous! I did ask for a little touch-up in one area--a tidy-up for her bottom--and the groomer took care of it without any fuss. The best part? My dog was so calm and relaxed with the groomer. Given some past horror stories with other groomers, I couldn't believe how smoothly everything went this time. It was pure joy to see her happy and stress-free when I brought her home. While the prices felt a bit steep, I realized that having my dog groomed without the anxiety for her is totally worth it. I can't wait to bring her back for another pampering session!

I paid 45 for a bath for my dog with trimming and ear cleaning. I will say the guy who handles the front desk is kinda difficult to communicate with and i had a lot of struggles booking over the phone. My only thing is that I am not sure if they were understaffed or overbooked but the bath for her took almost 2 hours so I was waiting in the area for a pretty long time. Her coat and skin have actually been really good since bringing her, so I'll probably be back but hopefully the wait won't be as long

We brought him in at 13 weeks to the EveryPup Program, where he is in a clean and disinfected facility with other safe and healthy pups and he gets training every day by Dave. Almost from day 1 we started noticing huge changes, and he matured so rapidly it's like we have a different dog! He is very calm, polite and attentive, and has been able to self-regulate so well. Dave is always available for our questions and follow ups, and he sends over progress notes and photos every day from training sessions. We also would ask him about problem behavior such as counter surfing or jumping up on people to greet, and Dave would target those specific behaviors as well. We also appreciated how fast and quickly they acted on our puppy swallowing something he shouldn't have, and immediately gave him some hydrogen peroxide to get him to throw it up, which saved us from extremely expensive and likely traumatic vet visits and possible surgery. Very grateful! Every day we pick up our puppy he is so happy from a day of playing and getting love from all the staff, and is tired and ready for some cuddles and naps when he gets home. The staff here are so caring and really love each dog, I trust them to take care of our puppy. Highly recommend!
