Can’t say enough positive reviews! I’ve been coming to Dog Barber for 1.5+ years and they always do an excellent and efficient job. They’ve worked out many tear stains, mats and various lengths of my Maltipoo. Grateful for this local business and with convenient location near MUNI and market st.

Great dog groomers! I've been taking my cavalier here for most grooms, and even when we've tried others "just to see" we always come back to The Dog Barber. Roberto and his team do excellent work even on our fairly simply grooms, and I have seen proper poodle grooms and marvled at their work!\n\nThey use treats for grooms if you allow them, which we do. That helped get my pup comfortable with grooming which was important for us. You can also book by phone or text which is convenient.

I contacted Roberto, owner of The Dog Barber, well in advance of finalizing our puppy's vaccination shots series. His response was thoughtful and helpful, instructing me on when our puppy would be ready, and how to prepare our new puppy for his first puppy grooming experience. We followed those instructions for about 6 weeks (still do: socialization, paw touching and play, etc.).\n\nWhen we arrived Roberto met us and welcomed our puppy. He immediately made our little guy comfortable with a treat and a kind hand, petting him and helping him get acclimated to this new environment. We left our puppy in Roberto's capable hands.\n\nWhen we returned, our puppy had been shampooed, had his fingernails clipped, and he had a most appealing puppy cut! He was handsome and remarkably well-groomed. Most importantly, as we left he turned back several times, with a bit of longing, indicating that he had a good experience and was treated very well. This gives us great confidence in Roberto, his staff, and his firm. We have definitely found our Dog Barber. And, he's definitely a keeper.\n\nWe enthusiastically recommend Roberto, "The Dog Barber" to anyone looking for animal grooming expertise and thoughtful considerate handling and treatment of their beloved little creature.\n\nOur little guy looks great!\n\nThank you, Roberto!
