As a fellow groomer I have to give a huge shout out to Nikole and her team! I came in with a giant breed dog, a Great Pyrenees, and used the self service dog bath. She went above and beyond to support me! Knowing the hair would be everywhere she didn't mind one little bit! And it took me AGES! She never once hurried me, or complained. I also saw her finished product of a pup she groomed and it was so cute it should be on the cover of Groomer Magazine. We've both been in business for decades, and have seen many groomers come on the scene yet not know much about grooming at all. Just know, if you're booking with Nikole, you've found yourself a hidden gem! Be sure to tip her, or treat her to a massage, a mani/pedi, or something! She deserves it! read more

This place is such a great idea and life saver for me and my super dramatic husky! He hates being washed and I cannot take him to groomers because he acts like he's dying so that's what made me discover this place. The prices are great, for $20 I can wash and dry my pup and I don't need to bring any of my own supplies! They are also super understanding of how much my pup screams and they don't discriminate against screaming huskies. This is my new spot for all my dogs bathing needs, so glad I found this place! read more

Rub-A-Dub Dog Bath - Entrance - Pet Groomers Near Me - American Canyon, California

Affordable, no fuss self-service, family-owned dog wash! I'm so glad I lucked up on this place during my search for a last minute grooming service. I took my timid 1st timers 1 at a time on this fine Saturday mid-morning and there was no wait. A choice of 3 shampoo types, conditioner, face wash, ear wash + washing leash, scrubber, towels, hose dryer & attachments are provided in the semi-private roomy space. There were no dogs nearby for my pitties to be concerned with, although I saw both tiny pups and MASSIVE ones coming & going, so the space is accomodating for all type and sizes. My Staffy/American pit siblings are 38 & 45 lbs & I paid a total of 40 bucks to wash them both. Can't beat that for the convenience of still doing it yourself, with all the supplies and space provided, and no clean up or backaches to worry about. We've definitely found our new doggy bath house! read more

Walked in and got an appointment that week for self service. Very friendly and helpful. All supplies/towels were provided and semi-private bath space too. Going back again as experience was fabulous! read more

Last week was Kalis first time being bathed anywhere but home. Until recently we've never needed a groomer or self service but she's 13 and getting her clean at home was becoming increasingly more difficult. It was so easy to get her washed and dried with their steps, elevated tub, and provided supplies. They had a variety of shampoo options for different needs. We went with the sensitive skin shampoo due to her allergies and she had no skin reactions. Self wash is a great price and they accommodated my request quickly ( I called beforehand and she said I could come down in 15 minutes). We were greeted kindly and shown everything offered. It's nice to have this available in town, we will be bringing the rest of the "pack" here as well. read more

Love love love all the girls at Rub-a-Dog! They are truly the sweetest and treat us like family. I wouldn't take my dog anywhere else.

Came by again. It's convenient in American Canyon. Very nice workers! Price was around $25.50 including nail trim. DIY dog bath, but all the shampoos, conditioner, ear cleaner, teeth spray, hairdryer, washcloths and towels are provided- and you don't need to clean up afterwards (although we wiped most everything down as a courtesy)...and we didn't need to make an appt. It was slow at 4pm. - friendly workers trimmed my dogs nails and the dogs were quite happy! I took out 1 star just because of the self service price compared to going to the almost full-service at petsmart or petco. read more

Once again, rub a dub has impressed me! It's been 2 years and 1 new addition to my fur family since my last visit here and I must say, nothing has changed! After a fun filled muddy morning of hiking and fetch, we weren't able to get in at Petco so we decided to come to Rub A Dub for self service grooming. Service and staff is still exceptional. The owner is on board and available to provide you with everything you need from towels and various shampoos to ear and oral care supplies. Everyone is always so sweet and caring from the time we arrive, to the time that we leave our muddy mess behind. Self service is first come, first serve. Pricing is fair, and goes by the weight of your dog. No additional fees for excess hair and messy clean up. You come, eff ish up, and you leave! We have 2 Belgium Malinois who weight 65 and 70 pounds. We paid $31 TOTAL today! That's less than a full service grooming for 1 dog. I will return again and again! read more

This is a great business. Was with them through the management change up until my pup passed. Nicole and her team are professional and super friendly. Definitely recommend if you can get in. read more

Staff was very friendly and got everything all set up for me to bathe my dog. You get to pick from 3 different types of shampoo depending on if you want for flea and tick, hypoallergenic, or deodorizing. They also provide conditioner, special tear free shampoo for their face, ear cleaner, a brush, towels, wash cloths and a scrubber. I was able to walk in and get in right away but they also do take appointments. Washed my black lab no problem and used their blow dryer to dry her off and didn't have to clean up any of the hair or mess. My dog's coat is super soft, shiny and she smells good! Very convenient and affordable. Would definitely recommend!! read more

I used their self service dog bath station and it was great. They provide everything you need and more, including various shampoos, conditioner, shampoo brush, ear solution, face cleaning solution, mouth spray, and Furminator hair brush! I was so pleased that the price was only $12! I've been to other self service places that charged more for less amenities and had time limits on top of that! The self service area is isolated in its own separate room with chic color coordinated products. The front desk staff was pleasant and of course with self service baths, you don't have to clean up after yourself ;) I highly recommend Rub-A-Dub Dog Bath! read more

We have been taking our dogs to RubADub since 2009ish when they were still in Vallejo. We usually do the self-service which is great! Especially when your dog sheds like crazy (Sorry RubADub for all that clean up). Lately we've decided to pamper our lady to spa days, in other words we transitioned to full service and she LOVES it! The staff are ALL wonderful, friendly, caring, knowledgeable and great with all the pups! Highly recommend. read more

This place is great!! They are so patient and caring with my dogs when it comes time for their nails to be cut. They are chihuahuas and cry like babies the entire time yet the people here get the job done every time. They are so caring and compassionate about each and every dog they work on and it shows. I so appreciate them and their work. read more

I am giving myself an epic fail for not writing this review sooner! I LOVE Rub-A-Dub and my cocker spaniel, Cheerio does too! She's such the diva (wonder where she gets that from) and I am so glad I met Nicole at Dog School at Aardvarks. I was looking for a groomers for my recently rescued pup and the rest is history! We've been coming here for a year and a half and it has been an amazing thing. Cheerio's confidence has grown, she's less afraid of the dryer and larger dogs and is always squeaky clean when I pick her up. Pat and Tony are beyond the best and are very accommodating with your precious pups. I haven't used the do-it-yourself feature but am sure it's great like everything else here. They also carry super cute accessories for the diva dog..or dog owner. Simply awesomeness! read more

I am the first to write a review for Rub a Dub... this place is very lovely for anyone who cares enough for their dogs! it is easy to throw your dirty dogs in a sink or a bathtub and wash them, yes. But Pat and Tony, the owners of this germ-free, clean, friendly place will take care of your dog as if its theirs! My little dog loves to come here and get cleaned! They do a wonderful job of cutting, washing, clipping toe nails, to grooming all types and sizes of dogs. the only complaint is that they are always booked ONE MONTH In an ADVANCE! Well, that should tell you something about how good their business services are! Plus, if you get to know PAT AND TONY, they are the most loving and friendliest people. **Side note: I arrived late once to pick up my dog and i saw Tony personally walking my dog for some exercise! ** They use all animal friendly products from shampoos to lotions. ** You may personally request a specific service needed for your dog and they will happily try to fulfill your wishes ** All of their staffs are friendly, and every dog is treated either by PAT or TONY personally, before leaving the store. read more

I've been taking my Havanese dog, Temmie to Rub-A-Dub for 3 years now and all of them are amazing. Especially Carly & Nicole. They're both friendly & attentive whenever we go, for grooming or for their self service bath. It's definitely a challenge with our dog, but you can tell they groomed her with patience and care. Every time we pick her up, she looks amazing! read more

We brought our German Shepherd for the first time this afternoon. The owner and her staff are extremely helpful and very friendly.

We will be back soon! read more

We went here once about a month ago and we will never return. We are new to the area and were looking for a local groomer. Hubby was driving by and spotted the business and dropped into inquire about getting the dogs groomed. We have three small (20 pound) gentle dogs. They said they were too booked up to take our dogs but that we were welcome to call in a month. They did take our information. Hubby no sooner walked in the door when they called to say that they "just had a cancellation" and could take all three if he went back over immediately, We dropped the dogs off at 10:30 AM and were told it would be about 3 hours and they would call. Five hours later, no call, I was anxious and called and they said yes, we could pick them up. One was not quite dry but I said we could finish drying at home. Prices were reasonable and the dogs looked great. Then a couple hours after we returned home, one of the dogs began whining, whimpering, and trying to lick his butt. We saw blood on his fur near his tail but I could not figure out where it was coming from. We went to the vet the next AM and she examined him and she said that someone had drained improperly expressed his anal glands and also that they improperly clipped the long hairs on his pee pee... that should never be done as those hairs are what direct the urine to the ground, critical for this dog as he does not lift his leg due to neurological problems. But even worse, the vet said that when they expressed his anal glands, someone had scratched him over the gland and it looked to her like a scratch from a fingernail and he had a fresh bruise over the site of the gland as well. She said that he was bleeding both internally and externally, and she thought too much pressure had been applied. She asked me why I'd let then do this and I told her that no one had even asked us about it. She said that at his last office visit, barely a month before, his glands were fine, all of the dogs' glands were fine, and no one should have touched them. This was never discussed with us ahead of time and no one even told us it had been done when we picked up the dogs. These dogs never have these glands touched by anyone, and in fact, if the groomer had expressed concern that they seemed full, I would have explained that they generally take care of themselves but I would have had the vet check them. I would definitely NOT have had a non-medical person touch them. When I called the groomer, they denied that the glands had been touched, but then said that if they had been expressed, they didn't scratch or bruise him. They would not tell me which groomer took care of him either. It was all very frustrating. When he was next seen by the vet for a recheck he had developed an abscess in the gland and since then, we have had to visit the vet twice a week. He had the abscess drained and has had twice weekly infusions of antibiotics into the gland itself. He is also on oral antibiotics for at least a month. This has been painful for him and expensive for us. While they did an excellent job bathing the dogs and brushing them out, if you bring your dog there, insist up front that no one touch their anal glands and also, tell them not to cut the long hairs on the dog's pee pee. While a minor trim may have been in order, to remove all of those long hairs means his urine, which would have been directed down to the ground by the hairs, now sprays all over him every time he pees... meaning we are giving frequent baths while we wait until they grow back in. Edited to Add: It took 5 weeks to completely clear the anal gland abscess. Vet bills (he had to have twice weekly infusions of antibiotics into the gland for the first two weeks then weekly after that, plus antibiotics and pain medication for a month) were over $800. On the upside, he has completely healed and is infection free. But I do urge folks to bring up the issue of whether you want anal glands expressed on your dogs before you leave them there. I have since learned that there are some groomers who just do this.... we had never encountered this before in all of our years of using groomers. The people who run the place are very friendly and seemed knowledgeable when my husband spoke with them and when we picked the dogs up, but this was a very expensive lesson to learn the hard way. read more

I love coming to this place to give my dog his bath and nails groom. Outstanding customer service focussing with care and love for your pets. When my dog gets his nails groom, I am at ease knowing the staff can handle and manage my dog from moving around while his nails are cut. Very professional, friendly and well trained in taking care of your pets. They also provide self service for you to give your pets a bath. They supply you with adequate shampoo, conditioner, ear solution, comb, breath freshener, apron, and blow dryer. There's really no time limit, but allowing you to have time to give your pet a complete bath. The store itself is clean and organize. On the right side of the room is where you find the stations to give your pets a bath. In front is the reception area and left of it is a small gift shop. In back of the reception area is where they groom your pets hair and nail. I can go on and on with how great the place and staff are, but come visit to experience it all! read more

Am I doing something wrong? I've left 2 messages on their voicemail attempting to get a grooming appointment for my dog. I'm a new client... or, I would have been. In addition to the 2 messages, I've called at other times throughout the day and no one answers. I'm calling within their stated business hours. I understand if they're busy grooming dog/s, they would have to get back to me, but No One Does. I've heard good things about this groomer, and their Yelp rating reflects that, but their lack of response to someone looking to bring them business is very disappointing! read more

When I first adopted my Maltese , Jazzy, I was in desperate need of a good groomer to help clean her up. When I called in at Rub-A-Dub at the time I was fortunate to be able to get an appointment. When I adopted Jazzy she had matted hair, horrible tear stains, red paws and dirty ears. I knew it was going to take a lot of effort and a few grooming sessions to completely clean her up but on her first grooming session Tony did such an amazing job! I almost did not recognize Jazzy. He went far and beyond what I expected from a groomer and was very pleased on how gentle he handled Jazzy. The best part is that every time I pick up Jazzy she looks like she has been pampered from a Spa Day at Rub-A-Dub. She comes to me wagging her tail clean and happy! I highly recommend Rub-A-Dub and the entire kind staff. I thank them for all their effort in making pups clean, healthy and happy. read more

I really really like this place! I used to bring my dog here all of the time! They are SO nice and friendly. They give you advise on what brushes to use for your dogs fur and what cut would look best. They are pretty big for a grooming shop but you have the option on doing it yourself or having them do it for you which i really like. :) The only downside is that most of the time you have to make an appointment because they can get very busy :( but you can drop off your pet and run errands instead of sitting there waiting like at other places. You can trust them here :) Overall they have really great service! why didn't i give them 5 stars then you ask?.... well because most of the time i called, they were already booked :( i guess i have to start calling ahead of time LOL read more

I have been a customer for 3 years. I have found their service has deteriorated since Tony as left. I have left their services on my 3rd visit under the new management. After paying the increased fees and taking my babies home to see how great they looked, upon closer inspection I was very disapointed. * Bichon puppy's ears have never been worked on and this was her second visit. * Poodle ended up with water in his ears and had to go to the vet. * Chiwawa mix was taken for a bath & nail clipping, her front paws were done, but not the hind paws. * Havanese skin irritation since. Unfortunately, not another penny of mine will be going toward this establishment. I'm so done. Like that saying goes, " you never appreciate what you have until it's gone..." Oh, they would keep my dogs for 6 hours or more; I brought my dogs 2 @ a time and in the morning. BTB, my dogs are all rescues. read more

I go here because they handle my dogs with care!!! Woof woof

I loved the previous owners, (especially Tony, since he did great work, & my dogs really liked him). We'd gone there for many years, until they became so popular, (& so far over-booked), that it took up AT LEAST 6 months, (if they even had ANY future openings available), to get an appt., so I had to go elsewhere. It was frustrating, since I'd been taking my 5 Border Collies there, for so many years. (My dogs were always well-behaved, too, & I'd been a customer since the owners prior to them). I'd left numerous messages for the new owner, hoping to get an appt., but I never got a return call. Since they're only a few blocks away, I decided to drop by & met the new new owner. She seemed very nice, & apologized, saying that they'd had problems with their phone, when they 1st moved the shop to Am Cyn. I was able to schedule an appt., but it wasn't until about 6 weeks out. They did call me, when they had a last minute cancellation, which I unfortunately, didn't receive, in time to make it, (which was my fault). I think they're trying to accommodate as many clients as possible., but still have a fairly long wait time, since they've retained the old clients, as well . I'll write another review, after my June 26, 2015 appt., with an update. read more

The self service dog washing is extremely convenient! They supply you with everything you need and the staff is very friendly.

Today I bathed my 70 lbs sharpei mix (who is scared to death of ANY running water) @ Rub-a-Dub for the first time. In contrast to her regular backyard bath with the cold garden hose water, this was an incredibly pleasant experience. My dog was really nervous at first but they were so helpful. It only took a few minutes for her to calm down. They provided everything you'd need - raised bathtub with warm water hose and chain, flea and tick shampoo, tearless shampoo, conditioner, ear cleaner, oral spray, comb, dryer, towels, aprons - and then they do all the clean up! All for $17. I can't emphasize enough how friendly and helpful they were. My dog smells like a baby and feels like a blanket. Guess I can't be mad when she sneaks a nap on the couch anymore. read more

Love this place! The staff are really helpful and the owners are SUPER NICE! I've been bringing my Rott mix here for about 3 years now. They provide everything u need, and do all the cleanup for less than $20! They also have a nail trimming/filing service that they call the "Pawdicure" ...(so cute)...for an extra 12 bucks. There's treats on the counter for your dog as well, if you'd like. Never leave this place unsatisfied. 5 stars! read more
