Self-Service Wash
Wash your own dog, the easy way
Raised tubs, all the supplies, and none of the mess at home. Just bring your dog.
What's included
Everything you need for a good bath is waiting at your tub:
- A raised tub with walk-up steps, so there's no lifting or kneeling
- Natural shampoos and conditioners
- Brushes and combs
- Ear cleaner
- Towels and aprons
- Pet dryers
Please confirm the current supply list (e.g., aprons, ear cleaner, any extras like de-shedding tools or quick-dry spray).
How it works
Come in during open hours
Wed–Fri 10–5, Sat–Sun 10–3. Last wash one hour before closing. No appointment needed for self-wash.
Check in at the counter
Tell us about your dog and we'll set you up at a tub. First time? We'll show you around.
Up the steps and into the tub
Your dog walks up into a raised tub, so you wash standing up at a comfortable height.
Suds up and rinse
Pick a shampoo and conditioner, then lather, rinse and brush.
Towel off and dry
Towel down, then use our pet dryers. Thick, fluffy coats can take a while, so plan a little extra time.
Head home clean
Pay at the counter and go. The wet towels and loose fur stay with us.
Pricing
Self-wash price list: by dog size/weight? Please supply current prices (and any cat pricing).

Tips for a happy bath day
- Bring your dog on a leash.
- Brush out tangles and mats before the bath if you can. They're easier to handle dry.
- Big or double-coated dogs take longer to dry, so give yourself extra time.
- Pack a few favorite treats to make it a happy experience.
- Wear clothes you don't mind getting a little wet.
- Nervous or first-time bather? Tell us and we'll help you get settled.
House rules
