Join the Dapper Doodle pack

We’re all about clean dogs and happy people. Full-service dog grooming and self-service wash stations—think Mister Car Wash, but for pups. Whether a client wants the full pampered treatment or prefers to roll up their sleeves, we’ve got something for every pet and every budget.

What we’re about

Our full-service grooming covers everything from nail trims to breed-specific cuts, while our self-service memberships let dog owners wash their pups as often as they want for one low monthly price. It’s fast, easy, and way less messy than the bathroom tub at home.

We’re proud to be a trusted, go-to spot for pet parents who care about quality, safety, and a stress-free grooming experience. And the best part? Our team is as friendly as we are fur-ocious about clean dogs.
