Unleashing a new era of dog grooming
Stress-Free
Our calm, private grooming space is tailored for your dogâs undivided attention. Ideal for anxious pups.
High Quality
Top-tier shampoos, vet-rated cleaning solutions, breed-specific brushes, and unmatched expertise.
Convenient
Forget the 4-hour trips to the groomer. We're at your doorstep on your schedule. It's grooming on your terms!
Grooming made simple for you and your dog
Bath
Our vans are loaded with fresh, warm water because baths are crucial to the grooming process. We use premium shampoos and conditioners tailored to your dogâs needs but if you have a prescribed medicated shampoo, we're happy to use that too (a small additional fee applies).
Blow Out
There are no cages onboard our vans. We hand-dry your pup from nose to tail. This process not only sheds excess fur but also preps those thick, furry coats for haircuts. Plus, it's a perfect time for your groomer to inspect your dogâs skin and coat for issues not readily visible.
Haircut
Every pup has their own style. Whether it's a neat summer shave or just a little off the top, your groomer will consult with you to match your requests while honoring your petâs health and safety.
Brush
Your groomer is equipped with the highest quality brushes, combs, and tools that suit your dogâs needs and ensures their fur ends up feeling as good as it looks.
Ears
We only use top-tier, vet-approved ear cleaners for your pup. Weâll pluck those floppy (or pointy) ears upon request (additional fee applies) and if we spot any irritation or infection, we'll let you know.
Nails
Maintaining the right nail length is crucial for your pup's health and well-being. We include nail dremeling (filing) in our service, but if your dog isn't a fan, we'll switch to clipping.
Teeth Brushing
We use vet-approved toothpaste and soft bristle toothbrushes to boost your pupâs oral health and freshen their breath. Your groomer will report any signs of poor dental health so you can address it.
Anal Gland Expression
Some dogs need more care in this department. Upon request, we'll provide this service at no extra charge. Unsure if itâs necessary? Your groomer will be there to advise, or you can consult your vet.
Thousands of wagging tails!
"Just had our first experience with Groombuggy and it was great! Communication was really clear and consistent, our groomer Sergio was also communicative, on time, and gave our pup an amazing cut. Best heâs had in a long time! Iâve had mixed experiences with other mobile grooming services and have been hesitant to try again, but Groombuggy feels like they have a higher bar and Iâm so grateful to have the convenience back without having to be worried about the quality! Updated to add that second experience was just as great, so there is consistency!"
"It was a delightful experience and he did such a great job. Princess loved him and was good for him. She came out so cute."
""**Great experience with GroomBuggy, I highly recommend them!** After our old groomer moved, I had trouble finding a quality groomer that gave consistent cuts. I liked the convenience of mobile groomers and it makes the process easier/less stressful on my dog. I ended up trying a few different services over 18 months, and started to feel like I would never be able to find a solid replacement. Then I saw the slick looking GroomBuggy van and decided to give them a shot. After a lot of trial and error, Iâm happy to say I finally found our new groomer! Even my dog, who isnât a huge fan of getting groomed, gets excited when he sees his groomer now. The haircut was fantastic, they took the time to listen to what I was looking for and even went through a few photos I had of past grooms that I liked. Communication from the groomer and through the booking process was clear and consistent. The experience was great from beginning to end. One piece of advice I would give anyone looking to use them is to make sure youâre able to book in advance as their schedule fills up quickly; especially if you find a specific groomer you want to use every time.""
"Great grooming, friendly service and the appointment was quick! My fur baby looked great!"
"Carlos does amazing work and so good with our puppy Molly. You can tell he genuinely cares for our puppy as he holds her up and gives her a comfort hug and talks softly to her."
"We loved our first groom buggy experience. Armando was so thoughtful and listened to what we wanted for our dog and our concerns. Our Chewie is a handful and he was able to have him done in a quick amount of time and gave us useful feedback for our future grooms. We canât wait to have him back for the next groom! He was punctual and really seemed to enjoy getting to know his client dogs."
"Loved everything about it! Bella was so happy afterwards. Will definitely book again!"
"Dasher looks great! Matted ears are unmatted. He is clean and happy! I am clean and happy!"
"Booking with Groombuggy was an easy and straightforward experience: they were very responsive and able to schedule an appointment quickly. It was our pupâs first grooming and Armando the groomer was communicative with his arrival time and was prompt. Armando was so kind and patient with our pup, and he did a terrific job with her grooming, she looked fantastic and was so content. Weâre happy clients, and will be going with Groombuggy again!"
"Love these guys! Bruce gets a fast but awesome groom every time! Heâs an anxious dog so getting this taken care of quickly is worth every dollar! Chelsea is so good with our pup! Canât recommend her highly enough!!!!"
"Scheduling is a breeze and the service has been spectacular. Weâve had three grooming appointments, all with Carlos. Heâs great - always punctual, professional, and efficient! His gentle demeanor is calming and reassuring (our pup gets nervous about loading up in the van, but quickly settles into the process) ; we also appreciate he takes great care to remember individual preferences - he checks in each time to confirm our grooming preferences for our Toller mix. Zeke looks, feels, and smells great :)"
