There's no reason to leave a member of the family behind when you visit San Diego. With these pet service providers, your four-legged friend can get as much out of their stay in San Diego as you do.
San Diegan's LOVE to take their dogs out to play. In addition to the many groomers in the county, a number of businesses also support outdoor adventures with do-it-yourself pet wash facilities.
Located just 2 1/2 blocks from the Ocean Beach Dog Beach, Dog Beach Dog Wash is the perfect place to get the sand out after a vigorous beach run and ocean romp. This self-service wash provides owners with everything they need to get their pooch spic and span and even offers self-grooming stations with clippers.
A self-service pet wash that provides everything needed to comfortably bathe and groom dogs or cats. No appointment is necessary. Noah's also stocks a wide variety of products including collars, leashes, shampoo, toys and an entire line of holistic, natural dog food, the raw dog diet, dietary supplements and treats.
A family run business located 15 minutes inland from Pacific Beach and Fiesta island, Dunk 'n Dogs offers both self-service dog wash facilities and full service grooming. They have hydrosurge tubs, all-natural shampoos and conditioners and drying stations.
A good choice if you're staying near downtown. They offer a host of supplies for the do-it-yourself groomer or you can make an appointment for professional services.
A quint little shop a block from the beach, they provide everything you need for a do-it-yourself experience. Or, you can have one of their staff to the grooming for you.
