Wash wag is a very convenient place to do a self-serve dog wash, and I usually add the nail trimming service, which is so helpful. They also have a great grooming service, it just costs a little more. I would definitely recommend calling to schedule the appointment because they can get booked up pretty quickly. They always give you a free bandanna when you leave and even have fragrance sprays to make your pup smell extra fresh. read more

I took my senior dog here for a dog wash and they did an exceptional job. I love the bandana they provide. It is difficult to get an appointment as they are booked in advance but it's worth it. read more

Horrible groomers. Please do not take your precious pets here. It's not clean and had a horrific experience with an unprofessional groomer. I became very upset and was crying after my dog went off backwards and fell 4 feet to the floor with the groomer standing right there. My son was injured really bad. Afterwards The owner went to my family member and said that I was too upset after that happened. Wouldn't any pet owner be upset? Run away from this place. There's a brand new facility being built on Portage Trail. I'm checking that out. I just thank God my dog didn't break his back. read more

I cannot say enough good things about these groomers! My dog has been a customer of theirs for over 2 years now and they have always been friendly and provide an exceptional service. Today I left even more happy than I ever have before. My dog has been experiencing seizures more frequently than usual and they accommodated for him. They allowed him to come in earlier so he could still get his haircut without getting overstimulated around all the other dogs. These groomers actually care about the pets and I will forever be grateful for their service for my dog! I would recommend Wash Wag to anyone that lives near the Akron area. Thank you Wash Wag!! read more

Always very friendly and professional. I find the prices to be competitive and affordable

I came here 20 minutes before closing and got turned away because they already cleaned the self wash stations. Been here a couple of times before to give places chances and wasn't impressed. Area smells bad every time and seems like they don't ever give the place a decent cleaning. Sadly don't recommend this place read more

Loved my experience for my Newfoundland Hope at Wash Wag! They treated her like one of their own and came out looking like a brand new pup! All of the staff was very friendly & accommodating and I will definitely take her back there for the next time she needs groomed! read more

Best dog grooming place within 50mi. They care about your pet, know their name, and do everything possible to get you scheduled even when times are tough. Don't believe the Karen reviews... read more

Per owners beware. I took my dogs here and more than once they came home with cuts or lacerations. In the past I have assumed that mistakes happen but when you couple those egregious mistakes with a bad attitude and a lack of care, it is really frustrating. This place is understaffed and is not worth the risk for my dogs. read more

Took my dog there because I had a grooming appointment. They made me chain her to the wall, and assured me she would be done by 6 when they closed. I arrived at 5:40 because I had not received a phone call that she was ready to be picked up and found her STILL chained where I had left her. They said they did a brush and tried yo wash her but she did cooperate. She had not been brushed at all. They apologized and tried to get me to reschedule. I will never take my dog back after the way she was treated and the blatant lies that they told me. read more

So happy after my first trip here. The attendant was helpful in explaining everything to me. There are at least 4 soap types that all smell great. They provide a choke chain if you don't have one for washing. The facility is relatively clean being a dog wash I was impressed. I'll be back and take them up on some of the grooming services offered! read more

A few weeks ago we used Wash Wag and I left a review that was not good. (Not my intention) We take Regal here to get his nails clipped and for baths on a regular basis. We get good service and we will continue to use the services here. I do apologize, I misspoke and that was not my intention... That you for the good service .... read more

I took my Ziggy there today and it was wonderful. They even let me hold him while they were trimming his nails. I will definitely take him back! read more

I was so nervous for my puppy's first grooming appointment, but they did an absolutely wonderful job! They spent 2 hours with my puppy, and she looked terrific. Afterwards, the lady working there explained everything they did very thoroughly, which I appreciated. My only complaint was that half the employees weren't wearing masks, although they require guests to wear them. read more

Wash Wag - Vader after his first time at WashWag! - Pet Groomers Near Me - Akron, Ohio

This was my first time going somewhere for my dog to get his nails cut that wasn't at his vet and loved the experience. They were so nice with my pup. I know he was scared and barked at first but took him in and it took maybe 3 minutes. As I finished paying he was out and nails all trimmed. People were so friendly and not stuck up like the first place I tried going to that rudely asked me for his shot records. Then the groomer acted stuck up with her dog and gave mine dirty looks as he tried to friendly say hi read more

Today was my first trip to wash wag. I brought in my 73 pound pit, Chance. I was a little nervous because I have never left him anywhere but home. However, Emily did amazing with him. I told her about him and she worked with what she had. Ha. Within an hour he was done :) pricing is reasonable, I believe. I am very happy and will be bringing my other two dogs in:) read more

My first time using self serve dog grooming. The staff was really friendly and didn't hesitate to assist. Very happy and will definitely return soon. The price is GREAT! read more

I took my elderly dog into Wash Wag for a nail clipping this past Saturday. Crystal took care of her and was very kind and gentle with my old girl. I had been referred by a friend who was thrilled with the services there and so on her recommendation, I gave it a try. I will be going back! These folks were so nice, so gentle and you could see them building relationships with the dogs they were working with. Absolutely our new "go to" spot in Akron. Great job Crystal, I can't thank you enough! read more

We just picked up our dog, Coconut from his full service bath which included a brush, bath, rinse, and dry. I'm sure that service was fine, but they added two, pretty large "tattoos" of paw prints on his back. One was dark green and one was black. They didn't ask if we wanted this nor did we ask for it. Coconut has a white coat and we have white carpet, we took him to be cleaned and didn't appreciate this. They said the tattoos would wash right off, but my husband scrubbed pretty hard when we got home so it wouldn't get on the carpet but there's still faint markings and he's wet in that area. Putting tattoos on a white dog defeats the purpose of professional grooming unless the client asks for it. read more

Just brought my 2 doggies here after a few months. I did have a previous review, in which a 'former' employee was very rude and not helpful. Yesterday they did in fact redeem themselves. My schnoodle was so matted. I felt so bad. I had family issues and was back in PA a couple of times around Christmas/New Years for my grandmothers death. And, my boss at work has cancer, and we've been putting in a lot of over time. So, time just got away from me recently and my poor puppies suffered ....... Well, they did a nice job on both of my dogs. They weren't judgmental or anything. They were cordial and helpful, and pleasantly nice this time. The only thing that I want to point out is....when you are dropping off, its extremely loud and busy there. They scream across the room for someone to help... That kind of overwhelms me a tad.... and if I may make a suggestion--- to hire just a front desk person to do checking in and out? Also, if there is a possibility in the near future to have an outside/separate office part that isn't in the midst of everything to be able to drop off and pick up would be a nice and welcomed addition. Just a suggestion :)) I know in a perfect world w/ expendable income...we all would have exactly what we want.. LOL The owner was very sweet in all my dealings, so I have to give her positive marks for that one.... Overall, I am pleased with my second visit there. I know in life you only have ONE time to make a first impression...but in this case-- their second impression made up for the first. Thanks for letting us come back.... read more

Wash Wag is such a convenience for us! I've taken my furry boy there twice - the first time I stayed with him and had a groomer bathe him and the second time I did it by myself...until I overflowed the bathing tub! (I took my glasses off because they got all wet and I couldn't see the tub was about to overflow.) The staff could not have been nicer and told me to just keep bathing the dog, they would mop up ALL the water! Our vet just recommended weekly baths for an itching problem so I will be visiting a lot in the next several weeks! I will be sure to wear my contacts so I can see the water levels! Wish it were closer but very grateful for this unique concept! read more

Crystal always does such a wonderful job with my fur baby! He is very shy and nervous all the time but Crystal treats him like her own and Cooper now loves coming to Wash Wag to see her! I wouldn't go anywhere else! read more

I have twice tried to take my dog to the self service dog wash. Each time I arrived during posted hours only to find a paper taped to the window saying "closed early". Today I arrived at 5:30 pm and their sign said they were open until 7:00. I won't waste my time trying again. read more

*Like talking to a kindergartner. My fiancé and I attempted to have a service from Wash and Wag that was never rendered but partially paid for. Instead of discussing the lack of services rendered the owner of Wash and Wag wanted to discuss an employee that she had terminated. Frankly it shows poor social etiquette for the owner to bring up or discuss personal shop business with customers. I don't care about whom or when or why you fire people and I do not patronize a business so the owner can share disparaging remarks about employees. Ultimately the shop business and environment is the responsibility of the owner and all I have heard from Wash and Wags owner is a shifting of the blame, a complete lack of ability to take any responsibly and an effort to change the topic of discussion from lack of services rendered to grammar and personal information. Instead of addressing the issue in order to appropriately satisfy the customer, Wash and Wags owner attacked and attempted to shift blame. Wash and Wag both lacks respect and the ability to show respect to others. Instead the owner would like to pretend as though everything is everyone else's fault. My fiancée and I left feeling disrespected, insulted, and ripped off. We brought in 2 dogs to get haircuts. One dog was a terrier mix and he is the hyper one, but Wash and Wag had no problem. The other dog is an air doodle and limp noodle when it comes to people handling him. The owner tried to tell me my dog was not an air doodle, was "wild", and needed drugs to sedate him. Then the owner wanted us to pay to still pay for a dog bath even though that was not the service we wanted. When I told her that we were not satisfied and if she wanted us to pay for the bath we would never return she said..."That's fine." We took our air doodle to Celebrity Pets and they had absolutely no problems. Celebrity Pets said he was a sweetheart. No one said he was "wild" or that he needed drugged or any other ridiculous statements that would shift the blame or the topic of discussion. read more
