Good tubs . Need more comfortable tether for dog to stay in tub . Not sure why they don't come up with a check out system to keep behind counter so then you have to return it . This could all be a great plus for dog's experience . The chain is too short and uncomfortable for my dogs neck . Otherwise good experience for self wash . read more

Eli loved it, but was a wee bit weary getting in the tub. They have warm showers but the soap is mixed with cold water and the dryers blew cold air. Eli didn't seem to mind. Is definitely go back. read more

Do It Yourself Doggie Detailing - Walter, satisfied client! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Boise, Idaho

So When I called I was looking for a last minute grooming for my golden doodle Because everywhere was sooo booked out. The man I spoke to was very nice about fitting her in but I have to review the quality of the job done. She looks HORRIBLE. Doesn't even resemble a golden doodle. They basically just shaved her...and not even well. She is completely uneven. Chunks of areas longer than others...her tail wasn't touched...still Has long chunks of hair on her ears that weren't done and her face was shaved down so much so really resembles a butchered greyhound :( I know now I need to wait it out and not look for a last minute fix but I am SO Disappointed that we paid $65 for this... golden doodles are a very common breed and she looks so bad...it'll take weeks for it to grow out enough to look descent. The guy was friendly but I would never recommend anyone to get groomed he read more

I'm impressed with this place. Just your basic dog wash but they have Everything you need. What is impressive is that despite being short handed on help (who isn't these days) the place is always clean, the staff is happy and pleasant and they are helpful. This is what makes this small business a success. Not sure if the blonde haired woman there is the owner or manager but she deserves 5 stars for her hard work and great attitude. I come here often. read more

This place is great. Friendly staff, plenty of supplies (different soaps, ear cleaner, towels, aprons) and stations. Great water pressure and temperature control. Nice drying system. It was our first time here our boy loved it. We will definitely be going back! Pricing not horrible either. We did our very large (95 pound) Labrador Retriever for $18. read more

This place is great if you absolutely can't wash your pet at home or need a wash on the go, but as a regular place to go I would definitely have to pass. The employee was nice. I did not like that the chain that used, I felt it was too short and needed to put in the middle of the tub. It would be better to have to posted on either side and in the middle. The soaps were extremely watered down. We got there around 9:30, they opened 9 at and the trash can was full of dog hair. The trash needed to be taken out. The place in general needed a make over. Just because a business is dealing with animals it can be kept clean. read more

Used to be good but the last few times I have been there the employee keeps making new rules, gives your ID for clippers, you can't groom today but you can give her a bath. I have been going there for over 5 years, what ever happened to looking after loyal customers. I don't think I would go back or recommend dozens of my friends who make the half hour driver from SE Boise to go there anymore. If you want to be treaded by rude employees, this is the place for you. read more

This place leaves a lot to be desired Was not greeted by anyone nor was I offered a bottle for the shampoo an apron or any brushes or other items such as towels or even help with the operation of the water and blowdryers After I was halfway done with my dog someone I believe to be the owner came over and instead of asking me how things were going or offering any assistance started talking to me about his solar energy panels on his house??? The only reason I returned to this place in the first place was because last time I was assisted by a very helpful young woman who I did not see there this time The place looks and feels dated, the water took forever to turn warm, and everything looked a little run down Prices are all right but I don't think I would return here again read more

This place is great. They make washing a dog easy. Tubs are up high so no killing your back. Water is temp controlled with easy to use sprayers. A variety of shampoos, conditioner, brushes, scrubbies, towels and more are included and easily accessible to make tub time a breeze. The attendant was helpful and polite. So much easier than trying to do this at home. We have been here multiple times and have always had a great experience. read more

This place is amazing. I walked in and the owner immediately jumped up and knew I had come in for my dog to get washed. He pointed to the aprons and said grab one and bring my pup to the wash tub. He showed me the ins and outs of washing my dog and made sure I knew how to do everything. My dog was super nervous when we walked in and by the time I was in the middle of washing him, he was relaxed. The conditioner I put on my dog really did make his coat super soft! I was worried because when his coat was wet, it felt like I had stripped all the natural oils off it. When it came time to blow dry, the owner showed me out to do it and explained everything in detail. He really bent over backwards to make sure I had a great time with my dog. For my 50lbs dog, it only cost me $12. What a stellar price! I'll definitely be back and I highly recommend them!! read more

We really enjoy this place. The guys that manage it really love dogs and have a great relationship it seems with most dogs. They are a bit over extended but they stay busy keeping stuff clean and taking care of customers. read more

Kelly has earned 5 stars for this establishment. I recently took my dog here to wash and groom her. I'm new to grooming her and Kelly gave me tips and showed me the most effective way to groom her. If you are wanting to learn how to groom your dog, I highly recommend going to Do It Yourself Doggie Detail. read more

I have a six month puppy who likes to cry at the top of his lungs the entire wash-he acts like he's in a torture chamber. The staff is always patient with us and they walk me through techniques and offer suggestions on how to help me and him get through it. They always do a good and quick job with his nails. Haven't had a bleeding nail yet, in my book that's awesome! Hopefully with time my boy will relax more, I mean, I'm trying to give him a warm water all over body massage! Thanks DIYSDW! read more

I was house sitting a temperamental older Pug, who was shedding badly, and well, was kinda stinky. I decided to take her over to Doggie Detailing. I went in with the squirming dog under my arm, and the staff immediately helped me to a station. They helped me get started, and I put on an apron and put shampoo in my bottle. I wasn't sure if they charged you by the bottle or what. They don't. The owner, she kept telling me to get more shampoo. I thought the Pug was going to have a heart attack but after a while she calmed down, until it came time for the blow dry. All in all, it was quick and painless. It is very clean, and to have the dog come out squeaky clean for only $11 dollars, I thought it was a bargain. I would definitely come back. read more

This place is a great place to clean up your dog. They have great tubs, blow dryers and towels as well as a variety of grooming equipment. Brushes clippers etc. Also they will clip your dogs nails too. Be prepared to hold the dog tight though they don't like this part. The guy is very good and patient but if the dog is jerking too much they will hurt them on accident sometimes. We go here every other week. Get your dog clean read more

Responsible Teenager/ Irresponsible Owner/Manager... Signage says opens at 11:00am Sunday. We got there 15 minutes early. A teenaged employee showed up at the same time. Many potential customers began showing up. The teenaged employee called the owner/manager (who didn't show up) to troubleshoot the situation at 11:04am. The teenager walked across the street and seemed to have returned with keys. She was unable to unlock the front door, nor back door. We finally left at 11:15am. I give the teenaged employee 5 Stars for early arrival to work and trying to troubleshoot opening the store. But what kind of business manager can't maintain professional hours of operation?... Yet the teenage employee was early, and cared enough to trouble shoot the situation. read more

Employees are always so helpful and check on you many times during your wash. They let us use their blow drying cage so we can blow out our husky's fur. And recommend paying for the nail trim!!! read more

The only reason we don't give 5 stars is because the 3 times we've been there, we have never been helped by the same person. Which means we have paid a different price occasionally. So the price list is by the judgement of the employee. We paid for a "mini pet" twice and a "small pet" today. Pretty good deal either way with unlimited shampoo and conditioner, two towels to dry off what the blow dryer might not get (or in our case, what our pup won't wait for us to get), and a wide variety of grooming equipment. We have only used the nail clipping option once and our little guy was pretty timid about it. Overall, we enjoy the convenience of the location and prices and the staff has been friendly. read more

I appreciate this place because it saves my back and my budget. Aesthetically speaking it's a bit worn, and sometimes the staff are too. However, Iike that I can hop in and out in about half an hour. I can bring my own supplies or use theirs, which includes shampoos, conditioners, and ear cleaners. My dog hates the bath so we always get a treat of dehydrated chicken for her after we are all done. read more

This was perfect for what I needed. There was plenty of shampoo and conditioner and ear wash. The dryer part really made the trip worth it!

It is almost fun to wash our dog anymore. Rylee is a large dog so bathing her at home is quite a challenge. Our experience has always been positive from the very first time on. The staff is helpful​ and competent in answering any question we have. Cheryl our favorite groomer is so knowledgeable​ about​ dogs. One other thing. It is obvious they care about animals and this is really​ important to us. read more

I just left after washing and drying my two heelers. One is afraid of water and the other afraid of the dryer. I was so grateful for the prompt and sweet customer service. From the moment I walked in Lori helped me find a tub to wash them at the same time and get them secured in. Then because my dogs were super anxious and I didn't want to walk away from tub to get soap she grabbed it for me. They offered me an apron to help protect my clothes and Jen came by with a wash cloth for a problem spot. It was super reasonably priced considering they provide the soap and much better than having to clean out your own tub. I'll definitely back. Very impressed and thank you. read more

We have been going to Doggie Detail for many years and love the facility and the people. They are always so helpful! They do our Sophie's glands and trim her nails as well! read more

The owner was so nice in helping my boyfriend and I wash our yellow lab. We didn't even know where to begin! The facility was so convenient, clean and well equipped. Definitely highly recommend. read more

Extremely friendly and helpful service! Prices we're very competitive and affordable. I definitely recommend this place, it has everything you need all sorts of different shampoo types as well as conditioner and ear wash. They also have a blow dryer and brushes for your dog and of course towels to dry off your dog. I always have trouble bathing my dog in a normal bathtub because it hurts my back but this is standing level and is completely comfortable and easy they even provide an apron so that you don't have to get wet at all! I will be back for sure :) read more

Brought my two dogs today, and it was great. Susie was friendly and helpful, and they had everything I needed, even a ramp for my dog with a bum hip so he didn't have to jump up into the tub! I got a discount for bringing my two dogs and will definitely be going back! read more

They offer the grinding which is nice for my dog, gets her nails short and dulls them out. She always has been great getting her nails trimmed, I have never ever seen her so uncooperative. The girl really didn't know what she was doing... Kept pulling her foot straight back which dogs do not like and will yank their leg away. She kept jumping away from this girl. I think it was too loud and the girl who was helping was too inexperienced. Not great for skiddish dogs. Will be looking somewhere else next time. read more

I've never been to a do-it-yourself dog grooming but I was greeted professionally and was showed the different items. My dog just came from the trainer and really stunk! She now has super shiny fur, smells nice and the whole thing was done in about 20 minutes. Yay! read more

extremely fair prices, friendly and helpful staff! It's do it yourself, but you are not alone if you have any questions! My only complaint would be when i get my dogs nails trimmed, they dont trim much, but he also has pitch black nails, so it's impossible to see the quick, so it's understandable they do so. read more

This last weekend my husband took two separate trips to wash our Labs. All was fine until the next morning when both of them woke up sick with the same symptoms-not hungry and lethargic to practically comatose. By the evening our female could hardly walk. Next was a very expensive trip to West Vet to find out she had a 105 degree temp, and had to have IV fluids and labs drawn. The following day our vet concluded that their skin was flaming red under her fur and that a bacteria in the soap must have gotten into their blood stream and gave her an infection. The type of soap he used is called Filthy Animal so be forewarned. We have not had problems in the past but we will never go back again. read more

This is a great place to bathe or groom your dog yourself. The staff is always super friendly, and they provide everything needed to get your dog in tip top shape. It's also a good value. Highly recommend! read more

Dropped my 15yo Border Collie off for a grooming appt. Went in to pick him up an hour after his appt. and the groomer was just starting. I left asking them to call when they were done, said they would but never did. I finally just went back right before they closed to get him whether they were done or not. When they gave him to me he could barely stand after being cramped in their kennel for so long. They even tried to switch leashes on me with some cheap twine slip leash. I tried to get the owners contact info to complain but they wouldn't give it to me. Sent an email to the stores email address but never got an answer. Their service was terrible. The groomer should be avoided like the plague. I won't be going back. read more

I brought my lab mix here to get a much needed bath. Unfortunately I also had to bring my very energetic 3 year old with me too. The staff was very polite they even helped me lift my not so light pup into the tub. They gave my son a stool to stand on and a child sized apron so he could help. My son was more interested in helping the staff with their chores than washing the dog. They were great showing my son around and answering his never ending stream of questions. This was all very helpful while I was tied up washing my dog. They have a great selection of shampoo and conditioners. I was asked more then once if I needed help or if I had any questions. We never ran out of hot water and I left with a very clean doggy. read more

I looked and reviewed multiple places to take my very, very hairy newfie who was in desperate need of a wash and trim. I called in before and asked if there would be anyone who could help me trim my pup, since I never have before, and they informed me they were more than willing to help me. I ended up here and was immediately greeted by a very helpful gentleman who was nothing but friendly. He showed me how to use everything and gave me recommendations. I gave my pup a good scrub and used their "blow dry" system that really helped get rid of her loose fur. Then, the gentleman dedicated at least an hour to helping me trim all of her hair and helping her look like a normal dog again. I am most definitely returning and highly recommend this place. read more

I have taken my dogs here for a few years. And for the Do It Yourself option, it is great. But I have a 3 dogs, and 1 of them needs to be groomed, and one needs to be de-shedded. It seems that recently (2 years or so), Do It Yourself has gone through a few groomers. Always someone new when I go in lately. But I am not going to go back for grooming or de-shedding. The last time I took in my Yorkie for a grooming (once again, new groomer), when I picked her up, she just didn't seem right. After her grooming, she was very depressed and just laid around for 2 days. I am not sure if they were mean to her or what. But that is the last time she will see Do It Yourself. And just the fact that they have a very high turn over rate recently indicates to me that there are problems. read more

Had a wonderful experience here, after having a horrible experience at another self-dog wash place in Boise. Prices are great, and the staff is so friendly. I would recommend it to all of my friends with dogs. read more
