My dog really loved her grooming appointment with BarkBus and I loved how convenient it was for me. In addition to a wide variety of grooming services, they also offer a warm up dog walk. During the service they also take pics and send them to you. I can't resist groomers sending me cute pics of my pup, of course. With her walk and full spa service, they were done in about 1.5 hrs. The 30 min walk was a great idea to introduce my dog to the groomers so I'm glad they offer it! She smells sweet, her nails are cut and everything from teeth to tail has been washed, brushed, and expressed. Booking was super easy, payment was very reasonable. Her groomer was on time and very communicative. Just an easy experience I'd repeat again! read more

Update: I am adding a photo to this review because it clearly shows that my dog was not groomed properly. The sanitary trim was incomplete and uneven, with long, stray hair still left throughout his private area. This was not a finished groom. It appears he received a bath only, not the full grooming service that was paid for. After this review was posted, the company initially apologized and offered a follow-up grooming with a different groomer to correct the issues. The night before the scheduled appointment, they canceled and stated that we were "not a good fit," issuing a refund instead. No correction was ever provided. It is also important to clarify that my dog's temperament was not the issue. Cowboy is a high-energy but extremely docile dog. He is well trained, listens to commands, and has never shown aggression. He is not vicious, violent, or difficult to handle. Suggesting that the incomplete groom was due to his comfort level does not align with his behavior or with basic professional grooming standards. read more

Kimberly did a great job with our pet. She was very considerate and kind and sent text updates throughout the grooming. It was the first time we had used a mobile grooming service and Kimberly put our pet and us at ease. She did a fantastic job and we will be happy to use Barkbus again! read more

Very unethical they just left our place in Irvine Quail Hill subdivision. did a terrible job. I guess we should have realized how awful this experience would be when they illegally in front of our house. I guess if they can't even follow that simple law we shouldn't have expected them to do a very good job on our dogs. Too many other options out there to deal with people that are not ethical read more

I booked grooming for my 2 dogs last week. The groomer text me to change my appointment times at 6:20 AM this morning asking if I'd be available to change to a morning appointment rather than the afternoon. I agreed then they sent groomer to the wrong address I'm very disappointed in this experience so far. read more

I was intimidated by the few reviews about their punctuality, but I was pleasantly surprised by their communication and customer service. It seems they're really trying to step it up to ensure it doesn't happen again. I have used their service a total of 3 times and Calvin is an absolute gem of a groomer. He immediately identified my dog's breed and reassured me that he would work to calm her anxiety down. He's even made an effort to walk her out of the bus and update us after each visit. We are definitely sticking to their services! And prices are very reasonable for a mobile groomer, which is a major plus! read more

Happy puppy. What a wonderful experience. Olivia our groomer showed up on time and was very professional. She went the extra mile to make sure Kona our 1 year old Cavapoo felt welcome and loved. This is a much better option than taking her to a groomer where she was caged and surrounded by loud barking and anxiety. Yes, it cost more but it is worth every penny to know that a part of our family is less stressed and kept in a cool, calm and clean environment. This company takes the time to make your dog feel loved. I have already booked for another future appointment and my neighbor came out to book also. Kona was dolled up with bows and a scarf. The quality of products used is top tier. This is one happy puppy. read more

Very pleased. I was recommended by a salon where my boy use to go. the groomer said due to environment of salon my boy gets very anxious. I will say mobile grooming is pricier than salon -so expect that. Customer service was attentive. His groomer, Kat was wonderful. She understood my dog is anxious and assured me she will go at his pace and give him needed breaks. They send pictures throughout service. My little guy was happy, looked great and didn't want to leave her arms. Thanks barkbus. read more

Didn't even get to appointment. They texted that the grooming had called off. 1. This partly my fault, I missed the reviews that complained about appointments being canceled right before they were supposed to show up. 2. I know that there are lots of rational reasons (sick, family, etc). I totally understand that life happens, but from my side- I had explained to the dispatcher that my elderly relative, who i had the appointment for, had health issues (that I explained in GREAT detail when i called to make the appt two weeks ago) and I needed the groomer at a specific time to maintain continuity for her. Not the dog, for HER. Also, not gonna lie, I needed a Saturday appt because I needed to be there because the only vet she will use won't allow me to drop the dog off late in the day-afternoon work during the week, and she is SUPER protective of her dog (as in not rational about it so we needed to be with her to keep her on track to keep the appointment). Convenience of a mobile groomer was a huge factor as to why I chose it. 3. Knowing this, you didn't call? You didn't have another groomer available? You TEXTED 4 hours before the appointment? So I get to scramble an explanation to my relative-who doesn't think this is funny and is verbally punishing me. Thanks for that. 4. I can't afford to take another chance with this company. It is too difficult to arrange my schedule, my relative's schedule, and her comfort with having a stranger touch her dog. You can fix this by NOT DOING THIS TO ANYONE ELSE. I can't believe I had to write a bad review for this. This behavior is really inconsiderate. read more

Barkbus is a very professionally managed and run mobile dog grooming company. Booking is easy and the groomer arrives within the time frame promised. The groomer who took care of our dog is Elizabeth. She's very pleasant to work with and took great care of our pup. She even sent me a photo while the grooming was going on. Highly recommended. read more

We absolutely love the Barkbus groomer, Elizabeth, who has worked with our sassy cocker spaniel for over a year. Barkbus is very reliable, great with communication and hires kind and knowledgeable people. We are able to set up repeat visits with our preferred groomer and get regular reminders. Elizabeth is so amazing with our dog who HATES any grooming! Our dog runs to meet her with a wagging tail. Elizabeth has helped us to get skin irritations under control and always makes her look and smell wonderful. We love the postcards, too! read more

DO NOT GO TO THIS GROOMER. Repeat- DO NOT GO TO THIS GROOMER. I had my dog, Tiki, mobile groomed from here and I clearly stated multiple times that I did not want her face trimmed. Despite this, the stylist completely ignored my instructions and cut it anyway--and not just a little, but drastically. Her face was butchered. It was obvious the stylist wasn't confident in handling the matting issue we had, she kept recommending we shave the hair fully down - then she overcompensated with the matting by cutting where they shouldn't have. This wasn't a simple miscommunication--it was a complete disregard for my request. "Do not touch her face" To make matters worse, rather than acknowledging the mistake, they have the managers "review" your complaint and then make a decision based on before and after photographs. At this point, I wouldn't trust them with my dog again. If you want groomers who listen and actually follow instructions, DO NOT GO TO THIS GROOMER - repeat - DO NOT GO TO THIS GROOMER! read more

This has been a sensational first experience for Sidney and his Mommy! This company is exceptionally professional and their entire program is top notch. Needed mobile grooming and this place had excellent reviews across all platforms. We took the leap and Sid will tell you this is now a permanent monthly relationship for him and doesn't want me to be jealous! (Alyssa O, if you are lucky enough, will love on your fur family member sincerely.) Easy to find out pricing and setup an appointment online. Following morning a friendly phone call to tie up loose ends and educate us on how epic the communication will be during the process. Alyssa was a sweetheart with the photos of her spoiling Sidney; reflecting the process in real time. So consider... * Professional experienced groomers who all have "first responder" training for animals. * "At your door" convenient mobile grooming. * Arrive in a self-sustained state of the art van with 5-Star spa pampering ready and waiting. * Your pup falls asleep he's so content! Barkbus is worth every cent - invaluably totally trustworthy, will treat your pet like their favorite family member and keep you in timely touch throughout your pet's five-star spa day! Sid gives an all Four Paws Review! read more

Tried this service today. It was so easy. I booked online at around 6:00am and the groomer Kat, was there by 10:15. She did a great job. She was so kind and patient with Baxter. She went out of her way to make sure that she was doing exactly what I asked for. She also noticed that his ears were red. I took him to the vet and he had an ear infection. Thanks for taking such good care of Baxter! Shelly read more

Listen to the other reviews! They'll cancel on you for no reason even when you set up the appointment a month in advance. Completely worthless service... and not at all worth the price they charge to be so flaky. read more

Andrew was great. He's doing her several times now and knows her very well. He is very careful with her.

Wow. Just wow. How does this company have any stars? My regular groomer wasn't available and my dogs (two wire haired and one smooth coat Brussles griffons, all about 11 pounds) desperately needed grooming. I was given a quote of $500 (a lot more than my regular groomer charges) for the three dogs. That was to include full service grooming. I scheduled my morning to accommodate the grooming. First the groomer tells me that my one dog was matted and that she would need to charge an additional $100. So $600 for three small dogs. I told her that I would brush the knots out myself, which I did in about two minutes. Call me crazy but shouldn't grooming include brushing? Then it came time to groom my other Bg. He's 15 and had a prolapsed eye in 2017. Clearly it has fully healed since his surgery SEVEN YEARS AGO! The groomer came back and said that she couldn't groom him because it was an infection? Ummmmm...so they know something that his regular vet and (all the other groomers in the world) don't? Then she said that he had matting on his face. Nope again. He had some crust because this breed tends to tear. How would a professional groomer not know this. Again, I was able to wash it off and brush it out in less than five minutes. So in the end I ended up grooming two of the three dogs by myself. So unless you want them to come groom your perfectly groomed fur babies, don't bother. Now I need to call my credit company to make sure that they don't charge the card they require to be on file before service. HORRIBLE SERVICE WITH AN ADDED DEGREE OF FRAUD AND SCAM! read more

I am really disappointed with this service. I hired BarkBus to come and bathe my dog and trim his nails. I was informed that the groomer would have a muzzle and be able to trim my dog's nails. However, the groomer arrived without the muzzle and was unable to trim his nails, stating that I would need to take him elsewhere for the trimming because she couldn't manage the front nails. So, if your dog doesn't like having their nails trimmed and you hire BarkBus, don't expect them to get the job done. I have called to complain and give them a chance to fix this by sending someone else, but I can't get through to anyone and only receive a robot to speak with. read more

Absolutely amazing! This was our first time using Barkbus. We have used a mobile dog groomer before but, Barkbus blew them away! Our groomer Gabby was great. She took her time to introduce herself to our kids, Holly and Ozzy. She kept us up to date during their Spaw Day with photos and texts. We want to thank Gabby for an amazing job! We will definitely use Barkbus again and request Gabby. read more

I have used this company to groom my golden retriever three times. My golden Sadie is very skittish and they always treat her very very nice. This time she actually went into the bus on her own. We had Fatima and she did an excellent job. It's pretty expensive but then again I did not shop around. This company got such great reviews and I have had a great experience every time. I would much rather pay more and have my dog not be traumatized and have them do a wonderful job. read more

My Pomeranian got groomed with barkbus for the first time! He is usually timid with new people, and gets scared and anxious at normal grooming salons. The loud noises and other dogs make him scared. Barkbus is so convenient and easy! Kirsten, the groomer, asked what I wanted and I was able to go over my exact preferences. I read a few other reviews on here and her name came up so I was excited to see what she could do! My baby was done in a timely manner. Kirsten did a wonderful job and he looks so handsome! Bam seemed happy and calm when I saw him instead of how he usually seems at the normal groomer where he just wants to get out of the building as soon as possible. I'm glad that I finally found a trustworthy groomer that my baby feels comfortable with. Thank you Kirsten and Barkbus! read more

If you value your time and your appointments, do not use barkbus. For a company that charges an arm and a leg for a mobile grooming they continuously change and cancel your appointments even when you book ahead. There is something going on at this company with their groomers because they switch people And appointments so often it's very concerning. I booked a mobile grooming for my pet well in advance the day of they canceled then they rescheduled me two days later for an appointment and same day canceled me again. Do not book this company or use them use a small business who values your time and cares about their customers . read more

Our little old lady needed a good grooming and thankfully we found Barkbus! We were able to book a next day appointment and they kept us informed every step of the way! They asked us detailed questions about her health and any issues she may have. We let them know that she has sensitive hips and is currently deaf. They took all the info and reassured us that our pup was in good hands! Cady, our groomer text us that she was ahead of schedule and could arrive earlier than planned. She showed up exactly on time and got right into grooming our pup. She text updates on how she was doing and let us know when she was done, which was just about an hour. Our old girl came out happy, smelling amazing and her coat was the softest we've ever felt! I'm completely satisfied with the work they did and how happy our girl was when she was done! Thank you to Cady and Barkbus! We'll definitely be booking with you again! read more

Worst company ever!! Do not trust them. Scheduled my girls for a nail trim over a month ago and triple checked with their staff that they can do it without my girls having rabies vax (severe vax reaction) I was told all 3 times it was fine. Now here we are 3 days away from our appt and they just told me no vax no appt. They canceled and said sorry for the confusion. Now my poor girls have to wait until our vet can fit them in. Highly unprofessional to say the least read more
