What should I bring with me?

You and your pet! Seriously, we'll provide the rest and we'll clean up afterward.

I prefer to use my own shampoo products. Can I bring my own?

Of course. If you have a favorite shampoo or conditioner, bring it! Please leave any scissors or shears at home. 

How many pets can I bring in one visit?

In the interest of safety for you and your pets, our wash rooms can accommodate a maximum of two dogs and two people at a time.

Is there a time limit?

Washes typically take around 30 minutes per pet. If you go a few minutes over, that's no problem at all provided that no other customers are waiting for the wash room.

My dog has fleas. Can I bring him in for a wash?

Tomlinson's self-serve pet washes are a flea-free environment. Pretty please don't bring your pup in if he has fleas. Doing so puts other customers' pets at risk of catching fleas and requires our staff to shut down the wash for an extended deep clean, inconveniencing other customers who have appointments.

Why a Self-Serve Dog Wash?

Bathing your dog is about more than making your fur child feel fancy. A good dog wash helps to keep your pup healthy: it means teeth brushing, nail trimming, ear cleaning, and a thorough physical exam of your dog from nose to paws that could help you spot any unusual bumps or bruises.

While trusting the expert pet or dog groomers to take care of your pooch can save you valuable time and energy, washing your dog on your own can be a fun experience. A gentle and thorough dog wash fosters bonding and attachment. Clean pets know they are loved.
