We absolutely adore Abigail. She is literally a dog whisperer and our Brody loves her. We had such difficulty having him groomed before we met Abigail and it has been a game changer working with her. We are so grateful for her love, devotion, expertise and professionalism. Brody looks and smells gorgeous

Barkbus Mobile Dog Grooming's reply

Thank you so much for the kind words! We’re thrilled to hear how much Brody loves Abigail — she truly is a dog whisperer! ✨ We’re so happy she’s made grooming such a positive experience for you both. See you on your next Spaw day! 💙🐾

We love Vanessa! She is so patient with us and our high maintenance pup. She also educates us on best practices to give our pup the best life possible. I pay the extra money for BarkBus to have them come to me, so its convenient and one-on-one.
