Ryan D.
For Ryan, grooming is more than a job — it’s a way to build trust with every pet that walks through the door. With a calm presence and a patient hand, he’s especially great with first-time clients and dogs who need a little extra reassurance. Ryan believes grooming should be as stress-free as possible, and he tailors each appointment to the dog’s comfort level. When he’s not working, you’ll find him exploring nature trails with his two pups or learning new grooming techniques to sharpen his craft.

What Our Clients Are Saying

He got his "King" treatment he deserves.

"Erica was great with King because of his size and breed most are hesitant with him, not her and he was happy to jump in the van. I got 3 pics of him and he loved his bath. Never going to a shop/store again. Thank you!"

Best. Groomer. Ever. Cannot rave about them enough!

"We have always been hesitant with past groomers because Zeus is super anxious. Andrew was beyond amazing and helped all of us to be comfortable; he sent detailed updates and pictures, it was so so reassuring. And to boot, the price is great. Thank you so much Barkbus and Andrew!!"

Get to know the dog community of Evanston

Evanston, Illinois is a vibrant lakeside town where the love for dogs runs as deep as its community roots. With its scenic views, bustling university culture, and walkable neighborhoods, it’s a haven for dog owners and their furry friends. Locals frequent Evanston Dog Beach for a splash-filled day by the water or head to Pooch Park—a fully fenced dog park just outside the city—for safe, off-leash fun. Whether your pup enjoys art strolls along Skokie Northshore Sculpture Park or tagging along on errands at Blick Art Materials, Evanston offers endless opportunities to bond with your dog.

To keep those dogs looking their best between adventures, Barkbus brings luxury mobile dog grooming right to your curb. Say goodbye to stressful trips to dog salons—our grooming vans are fully outfitted for everything from soothing dog baths and breed-specific haircuts to nail clipping and deshedding treatments. Whether you need a puppy groomer, small dog groomer, or help with large dog grooming, our expert dog washers, dog bathers, and dog trimmers deliver spa-quality results without ever leaving your driveway. It’s grooming that’s convenient, cage-free, and tailored to your dog’s needs.

After their Barkbus makeover, treat your pup to a post-groom outing at one of Evanston’s many dog-friendly restaurants. Grab an outdoor table at Stacked & Folded, known for its casual vibe and pup-welcoming patio, or enjoy a coffee at Coffee Lab & Roasters, where dogs are often found lounging beside their owners under shaded tables. Whether it’s a lakeside walk, park playdate, or brunch downtown, Barkbus ensures your dog always looks and feels their best for Evanston’s next big moment.
