Five Star Experience
We had a wonderful experience today!
"Ruben did an excellent job grooming Stanley! Not only does Stanley look fabulous, clearly he feels terrific too and really liked Ruben. Ruben was so warm and kind that he put Stanley at ease right away. Looking forward to our next appointment with Ruben when he will groom our other dog, Remi!"
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!!"
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!"
I couldn’t believe how cute Luna looked after!!!
"Luna’s 1st puppy grooming today was absolutely amazing with Marisol today! The van was clean and Marisol was professional and friendly and Luna loved her!! I couldn’t believe how cute Luna looked after!!! I would highly recommend this service and so much easier for puppies."
Will be recommending your service to everyone I know!
"My groomer, Evelyn, is truly a wonderful person. From the moment Belle met her, I think she felt really comfortable with her. Evelyn sent pictures to me at every stage of the groom and Belle looked happy in each picture. Thanks again for the great service provided by Barkbus and Evelyn."
My pup is HAPPY and CUUUTE. Worth every cent!
"I really like the thoroughness of these folk! Mandy did a great job making sure my pup Pearl was acclimated before going ahead with the grooming. Lots of pets and sweet talk. Best of all, they came to my house, i received updates (with pictures!) throughout the grooming, she triple checked on the grooming notes, and my pup is HAPPY and CUUUTE. Worth every cent. Especially if you have a nervous doggo."
We loved our experience with Barkbus!
"This was my first time using a mobile groomer, Cristina talked me through everything and was so kind! She really made Danny feel at ease, and Danny looked amazing when she was finished!"
Our experience with Barkbus was 15/10!
"We have a toy poodle (8) and a golden doodle (5). They have been groomed since they were babies and this was by far the best they have ever been groomed. Kitty was our groomer and I cannot say enough great things. She was on time, professional, knowledgable, and had great communication throughout the entire appointment. She was very attentive and told us anything she saw that was out of the norm (if any). We will be returning clients of Barkbus & Kitty. Thank you so much! My babies are so happy."
She came back fluffy, clean and confident.
"Ezra did an awesome job grooming our dog! She came back fluffy, clean and confident. She was overdue for a nail trim which isn't her favorite thing to have done, but Ezra was able to make it happen. I'm so pleased with the professionalism and quality service we experienced."

Highland Park, Illinois, is a vibrant and scenic lakeside town that embraces both its natural beauty and its deep appreciation for pets—especially dogs. With serene spots like Moraine Dog Beach and Park, where pups can splash in Lake Michigan, and local trails like the Green Bay Trail and Robert McClorey Bike Path, dogs here enjoy a lifestyle full of fresh air and freedom. That’s why Highland Park is the perfect home for Barkbus, a mobile dog grooming service that brings top-tier dog grooming services directly to your driveway. From soothing dog baths to expert dog haircuts, nail clipping, and coat care, Barkbus takes the stress out of grooming by eliminating the crates, car rides, and waiting rooms of traditional dog salons.
Barkbus is designed for dogs of all breeds and sizes—from spirited puppies to seasoned seniors. Our dog grooming van is a fully outfitted spa-on-wheels, staffed by experienced dog groomers, dog bathers, and dog trimmers who provide compassionate care and professional grooming right at your doorstep. Whether you’re searching for a puppy groomer, small dog groomers, or large dog grooming options, Barkbus delivers gentle, breed-specific dog hair cuts and one-on-one attention tailored to your pet's needs. It's the ultimate in comfort and convenience for Highland Park’s active dog-loving families.
After a Barkbus visit, your freshly groomed pup will be ready to accompany you to one of Highland Park’s many dog-friendly restaurants. Michael’s Chicago-Style Red Hots offers an outdoor seating area where dogs are welcome to lounge while you enjoy their famous hot dogs and sandwiches. For a sweet treat, Frost Gelato invites pups to cool down on their patio while you indulge in handcrafted gelato. Whether you’re planning a walk on the Chicago Riverwalk, a cruise with Canine Cruise, or just relaxing in the neighborhood, Barkbus makes sure your dog is always clean, comfortable, and ready to shine.
