My dog Bo never liked going to the groomers. He and I are so happy that we found Sharday at BarkBus! She is the best dog loving gentle sweet and talented groomer! And here is a photo to prove it!

Every person I have talked to or texted with at Barkbus is professional, friendly and helpful. Their customer communication is outstanding. We have had a few different groomers for our dog and they have all been amazing! I would highly recommend Barkbus!!

We had a great grooming experience with Jupiter. She sent photos of him while in the truck bath and when he was done. The only downside is that the overall appointment is pricey. We paid $290 but the smooth experience and great results, you are getting what you pay for. I financially couldnt make a consistent appointment work but for special occasions and convenience it is worth it. Thank you Barkbus!!

We totally understand that pricing can be a factor, and we appreciate you recognizing the quality and care we strive to deliver. We're always here for you when you need us for those special occasions! 💙🐾

Caitlyn was our groomer, she was very professional and loving. She did a WONDERFUL job. My 2 fur babies felt safe and comfortable. I will definitely use their services again and recommend them to all of my friends and family.

Hands down a fantastic experience. Ignacio was professional and very caring. He listened to what I have to say and treated Sophie like a Queen. Thank you Barkbus!
