About us


Barkbus is centered around building a community of world-class grooming talent and providing reliable service through seamless technology. Our goal is to end traumatic trips to the grooming salon by providing a safe and stress-free mobile grooming experience at your doorstep.

A good groom does more than clean a coat. It helps a shelter dog look and feel like the family dog they are about to become. That is why every Barkbus market works hand in paw with the rescues in its own community.
