It was my first time using a mobile grooming service! What a great experience using Barkbus! Setting up an appointment was super easy and pretty much automated.Brianna did an excellent job with my dog Dexter. My dog is shy and timid but Brianna took her time in getting him familair with the truck before starting and sent lots of pictures in the process. She was very easy to work with.Total time was about 2 hours for my husky. Pricing is on the higher end, but you pay for convenience and a thorough job!I would absolutely use Barkbus again and recommend it to others!

Second time using Barkbus Mobile Dog Grooming and I could not be happier! Making the appointment was a breeze, our groomer, Paula, arrived on time and was very helpful in selecting the right trim, etc. In a reasonable amount of time, our dog was immaculately groomed and ready for "her close-up!" Thanks again for the great service!

Barkbus groomers are always very sweet with our Golden. She normally is so scared to take to the groomers. Having an at home service always takes away the anxiety for her. She always looks perfect after her grooming session. Thank you Barkbus!

Very nice mobile spa, very nice groomer, name is Laurie. Poppy was happy and relaxed. But, she is a trooper, and a rescue dog from MX.

Echo is amazing with my fur babies and takes such good care of them even showing me if she finds anything of concern. Super great
