Bella's always been a nervous, anxious dog with a bit of separation anxiety. But after just a few mani visits with Matt, she completely relaxed and grew to love her time with him. These photos are long overdue -- we've been going to Matt for more than two years now! read more

Been taking my dogs there for years. Reasonable pricing and lovely service. Matt is great with both of my dogs and they don't freak out when he trims their nails read more

We really wanted to like this groomer. And, sadly, his work was not close to satisfactory. The only thing worse than his grooming skills = his unpleasant, condescending attitude. We brought our pooch here for the first (and last) time. When we picked him up - he looked the SAME as when we dropped him off. At first we were apprehensive to say anything.... but after our neighbors and dog walker said he didn't look any different... we had to speak up. Unfortunately, Matt does not return calls or texts. Therefore, we had to go back, in person, to speak with him. Wow... I wish we had recorded the interaction. He was so disrespectful and rude... we were horrified. It was beyond upsetting. We wasted so much time dealing with him. Having to go there to make the appointment. Commenting on how unhappy we were with the "grooming" and then.... he spewed off some impolite comments about us personally. What the heck, dude? Check your attitude. Appreciate feedback. If he would have responded differently, we wouldn't have to write this review to warn others. read more

Matt is my "doggie SAVIOR!" Nobody could trim my beagles nails ....literally no one. Completely discouraged after trying 4 different privately owned grooming businesses, 2 different PetCo's and 4 different Veterinarians (unless I paid for my beagle to be sedated). A complete stranger recommended "Doggie Bath-O-Matt. Matt had my beagles nails cut within 10 minutes. So GRATEFUL as my beagle was struggling and in pain with his nails so long. Matt's expertise, familiarity with specific breeds temperament and confidence with the dog are priceless. On top of all that, one cannot beat the cost of the services offered. I recommend "Doggie Bath~O~Matt" to everyone. read more

My friend recommended me to Matt, and he is just awesome. I have a problematic, scared dog and she does great with Matt, he has a real gift with dogs and with people too. Thanks Matt! read more

Matt is wonderful with my dog Ralph who is a rescued poodle mix. My little guy was difficult for prior groomers but Matt has a gentle and professional skill and is able to work with Ralph causing no trama. Prices are excellent as well. I would have no problem referring anyone to Matt for their pet care. read more

My 7th months old sammy puppy NEVER stays still especially when we're trying to give her a nail trim. We've tried luring her with treats, toys, etc and we've never succeeded. Her nails were getting too long where she's slipping as she's turning. So I did a bunch of research because who wouldn't want the best for their fur babies??? While researching, I came across Doggie Bath-O-Matt on Yelp and saw the raving reviews about Matt and his service. Luckily, Matt's shop was relatively close to home so we took a short stroll over. We arrived to the shop and Matt was giving a dog a cut but that didn't stop him from welcoming us and making small talk. Matt was super friendly and even more friendly to our big puppy. We only had to wait 3 minutes and Matt was ready for Kopi. The whole process took less than 5 minutes. And Kopi was SO still the entire time. We were both so surprised and Matt was so gentle the entire time. We will definitely be coming back for Kopi's next trim. Def recommend!! read more

Matt is absolute magician. He I have a very difficult dog that cannot stand his feet being touched. Matt was so swift and comforting and got it done so quickly. His expertise far exceeds how reasonable his prices are. I cannot recommend him enough for nail trimming enough. read more

Matt is a great business owner and offers nice services. Although I only have used his services twice to cut my English Bulldogs nails- my bulldog is never afraid of him. Matt is very fast and efficient. He offers good prices as well. We are happy he was referred to us and gladly will refer him to other dog parents. Bonus points: for being an SF native read more

Doggie Bath-O-Matt - Kenji's cutting with Matt - Pet Groomers Near Me - San Francisco, California

WOW!! Matt is amazing! Very kind, very friendly, and very accommodating! Previously my dog has had a very hard time when getting her nails clipped. Normally it takes at least 3 people to hold her, soothe her, and clip her nails. I walked into Doggie Bath-O-Matt and knew my dog was under professional, top tier care. I only had to wait a few minutes before Matt was able to take her in and trim her nails. He was quick, effective, neat and overall a real professional! I will be bringing my dog here monthly! She loved the experience and I feel so relieved that our wrestling her for nail trimming can be a thing of the past. read more

Matt is the best for clipping our dogs nails gentle and accommodating very affordable read more

Matt has become my go-to person for all things dog-grooming related. He's incredibly flexible with his schedule, kind, funny, and truly the BEST at what he does. Both of my dogs are EXTREMELY difficult when it comes to trimming nails but with Matt, both of my dogs are in and out of his store in just a few minutes!! Their nails are always at a healthily short length and he knows how to deal with dogs who have temperament issues at the groomers. He is incredibly skilled and I give him my highest recommendation!! read more

Always a great experience here! Awesome little neighborhood business that I love to support

Matt is the best! I have been coming here for years! Super friendly and know how to cut my Shiba Inu's nails with a muzzle on, I no longer drug my dog. He is fast and takes care of my dog. I take her to the beach after as I good behavior treat. If you want Matt to do dog grooming, book in advance as he is booked for months! read more

Matt was super nice. I walked in to get a nail trim for my dog. Matt was an expert, checking my dog's nails and teaching me what to look for if I wanted to attempt to cut my dog's nails. My dog only really needed his dew claw trimmed so Matt only charged me $5 (full nail trim is $10) read more

Matt was kind, quick and efficient even though our little guy is skiddish. Highly recommended! read more

Matt is amazing. He has always had a great attitude and is really down to earth. Our dog likes him - which is saying a lot because our Pittie-mix rescue HATES anything even remotely related to water or baths. Matt is fast and efficient and responsible and always on time. Great local groomer. Support local small businesses and drop by for a visit. You won't regret it. read more

Matt was very friendly. My pup was in & out with no muss or fuss. She was cleaned, nails trimmed and cut. She was happy to see me and seemed to enjoy her experience there. Owner was jolly & happy. He knew his "customers" names and they all seemed to be relaxed in his company. Very happy I found this place. The wait is long but worth it. Reasonably priced as well. read more

Our lil Oban's nails desperately needed a trim and I had problems finding a place that will do it without the whole bath experience. We brought Oban to see Matt and he fit us in right away! Matt was gentle and efficient with Oban..we were out the door in a few minutes. Matt is super booked up though the remainder of the year for Grooming but gave us recommendations to other places. I hope to bring Oban back for a full groom next year when there is an opening! read more

I usually don't write reviews, but after my amazing and efficient experience today with Matt, I sat down to write this review as soon as I got home. We have a medium-sized dog that is mildly anxious and definitely not great with nail trimming. Since COVID started, we couldn't get our dog in for nail trimming anywhere, even our normal groomer, without a 1 month waiting list. Finally, we couldn't wait anymore and went to Doggie Bath O Matt. Matt is so professional, efficient and kind. Our dog was very hesitant, and Matt didn't skip a beat. He knew how to handle our dog's anxiety and how to get the job done without rough handling or making the experience worse. He even checking his eyes and ears and offered to trim some of his facial fur. No drama, no upselling, no chastising. All of this without an appointment, in less than 5 minutes and for $10. We'll definitely be back! read more

My dog didn't want to leave. This is my dog's first bath and grooming with someone other than me and my husband. I was so nervous for Matt. My dog was only 10 mos old and can be a bit rambunctious, but Matt is great with him. I felt comfortable leaving him there and when I came back to pick him up, I so happy to see how well he was behaving. Definitely coming back! Thanks Matt!! read more

Our totally reactive dog, was totally docile for his nail trim. I'm convinced that Matt uses Jedi-Mind tricks. He is the best!

Love this spot. He's such a nice and professional guy. Make sure to support local businesses

I had the pleasure of meeting Matt yesterday for a quick nail trim for one of my pups. Her nails were really long and she was very uncomfortable. We stopped by, had a quick chat and he got to work right away. His conduct was friendly and professional, I was amazed at how well he handled her. He was gentle and quick and did a great job! I'll be back with both pups for a nail trim in a month. read more

Matt always does a great job with our Labrador Retriever, Stella. He is very knowledgeable, friendly, and professional. Once you meet Matt you will immediately know your pet is safe and in good hands. Absolutely the best in San Francisco. read more

Matt is so great with nail clipping. He's super fast and even though my dog is kind of skittish, Matt got all 23 nails done within minutes.

We really like Matt and appreciate his patience when clipping our friend's nails but he is really really hard to get a hold of. I've been to the shop on several occasions within regular operating hours (sometimes multiple trips in one day) and have not been able to book an appointment. Matt's services are fine. His availability as a business owner however leaves much to be desired. read more

So our dog, Zippy, tends to be pretty difficult when it comes to her nails. We have gone through 3 groomers and 3 different vet offices - all of which had no luck in letting them cut her nails. I then spent about 2-3 weeks at home trying to de-sensitive Zippy to the clippers and it was just not working out. In comes Matt (recommended through a friend) - we walked in (no appointments needed for nail trimming!), I let Matt know Zippy was difficult, he asks me if we should put a muzzle on her (super nice - most don't ask), and within 2 minutes he clipped each and every single one of her nails. Definitely coming back forever. Thanks, Matt - you're seriously the dog whisperer! read more

So far, my dog Ella and I have only been in here for her nails to be trimmed, but Ella is super-anxious. Matt calms her down, and today, her third visit, she was calm the whole time, having learned to relax with him. She had dewclaws that grew in a circle, but with regular monthly visits that problem is resolving better than ever! One day, I will have to book a full grooming appointment! read more

Absolutely the BEST. I love that nail clips are drop in and reasonably priced (only downside is cash only). We come in every 3-4 weeks and the longest I have ever waited was 5 minutes. Matt is great with my squirmy black nailed dog and always a joy to chat with. We are usually out in less than 5 minutes, can't imagine a better experience. read more

Quick efficient and so reasonable - my pup is fine before he can get nervous Really a great find

100% amazing fast, reliable and friendly service. I brought my fur baby here for a nail trim and anal cleaning and the service took less than 10 minutes. I also really appreciated that the owner, Matt, allowed me to watch and learn how to do the anal extraction as he took care of my dog. He did a great job on her nails too. My dog is very anxious about nail trims and he handled her very well. I was overpaying big time for a very long time taking my dog to the pet hospital to have these services done for $65, but here I was only charged $10. I am so grateful that a fellow friendly dog owner told me about this amazing service. I will only come here from now on because the service is fast, friendly, and affordable! Thank you so much Matt. And see you soon! read more

That was great! I called last minute to ask if I can get Ceasar's nails cut left a message and heard back after a few minutes. I went in he got his nails cut and we were out within 5 minutes for $5. He was very nice and welcoming. read more

Doggie Bath-O-Matt - Nail cut - Pet Groomers Near Me - San Francisco, California

Doggy bath o Matt is the spot!!! I've been coming here since I moved to sf, I want to start off by saying that Matt is a great guy and I know he takes great care of my pet when he's there. I highly recommend walking in to make an appointment due to the fact that Matt is very busy and most likely won't pick up the phone. I know it can be a burden to drive there to make an appointment, however, it doesn't bug me since I don't live too far off, anyhow for $50 Matt will clip your dog nails, pop their anal gland, trim the inside of the ear and groom. He does a pretty darn good job too, this place is definitely the best place to take your dog without feeling like you just got robbed. If you got a pup that you love and your on a budget, Doggie bath o Matt is the way to go. read more

Doggie Bath-O-Matt - Benson - Pet Groomers Near Me - San Francisco, California

I took my border collie poodle mix here for a full groom. Matt was awesome! He only works on one dog at a time so they get special attention, no waiting in a crate all day. She was extremely matted and her hair was very long. He shaved her down, got rid of all the tangles, clipped her nails, cleaned her ear/ear hair, and expressed her anal glands - all in three hours! With the severity of her mats I was expecting her to look a bit rough, but nope! She looks great, and was happy and hyper when I picked her up. We'll definitely be back for all of our grooming needs, thanks Matt! Yelpers should note that it takes 2-3 weeks to get an appointment. read more

Doggie Bath-O-Matt - Happy, tangle free puppy! - Pet Groomers Near Me - San Francisco, California

I was one that also called 3 times and never received a call back. So the next time I was in the area, I stopped by the shop to talk to Matt. Very personable operator. He was busy grooming a dog while we talked. His earliest appointment was 2 weeks away and today was the day. Matt's prices are very reasonable... $50 for a Maltese is very reasonable. Also, he was very good with both our dogs as neither came back stressed. Be prepared to go to the shop if you are a potential new customer as that's the only way to get ahold of him. Then be prepared for 2 weeks for a full groom appointment... which isn't bad as I used a mobile groomer early this year and it was 2 weeks out for an appointment. read more

Matt is our savior! Our old chihuahua won't let you near his feet and was needing a nail trim very badly - the length of his nails was effecting how he walks and we tried to trim them ourselves but he went completely beserk! I Read the great reviews here and decided to go for it. I asked my husband to take "Hashbrown" and at least attempt to get his nails trimmed. Within 10 minutes of arriving there, my husband sent me a text saying "All done!" I was in disbelief - so relieved Matt was able to do it and do it so quickly! For other services I believe you should call or leave a message and make appointment. For nail trims, it was great to be able to walk in spur of the moment. Thank you so much for your great work and patience! read more
