The Dog Wash in Minooka! They do your pet....or they have these awesome bathtubs where you can wash and dry your dog yourself! They supply the soap, towels and best of all....the cleanup!

Augie Doggies Mobile Pet Grooming. They come right to your home and they really love and take care of your pet. I would never trust anything living with Karens Grooming. Untrained workers and an uncaring owner.

Karens Pet Grooming in Joliet. Awesome, phenomenal care for all of our pets. They deal with little big and naughty and nice. Whatever type we've always had great service and the dogs love going back. Even the ones that had some issues with other groomers get better after going a few times. Hands down the best place I would recommend.

Much love to my girls at Karen's!! They have been rocking the pet world since 1999, I am a big fan of this establishment, Karen & staff have been doing soo much for the local pets, its sorda hard to see the crap that is posted! I will forever trust them with my pups, how many people do you know that will make your babies food if they dont eat well ? She took in my dog for a few months when I was in the hospital , I couldnt afford to pay my bill & Karen kept & cared for my dog anyway!! She only asked that I support the local effort to help others in need !! She & her staff have done nothing but help me when I needed help ! Vote for Karen's . I will & I owe her soo much more than this simple post! Much love to you all , chin up girls :) We all know the BS when we see it xoxoxoxoxo Jerry

I don't want to badmouth anyone's business, but the staff of the Dog Wash is always friendly, helpful, and FUN. I have never felt like I was an imposition like I have at places in Joliet, and the store is clean and cheerful. I will never take my dogs to another groomer since I found them.

The groomer and staff at Caton crossing animal Hospital in Plainfield are the best!!! The dogs love her and they always look great!!! Wouldn't go anywhere else!! Also love that it is a full service animal hospital so if my pet needs vaccines or anything else it can be done at the same time as the grooming!!

The Dog Wash in Minooka is amazing! My rat terrier Spaz, hates when I give him a bath. But when he goes to see Billie at the Dog Wash, he never gives her trouble. She is so wonderful with him and he loves to see her! I honestly feel like everyone there likes him and are happy to take care of Spaz. Can't say enough good things about them, it really is a great place to take the furry members of your family!

I called the dog wash in Minooka to make sure they would do my pit-shepard mix, alot of places won't. After being told they love pits I showed up with Dex and was told he was the cutest stinking dog ever, and the owner would love to take him home with her. She didn't muzzle him like every place else and had his nails cut and filed down in less time then it takes to pay everywhere else. The owners genuine affection for dogs will keep me coming back!

Hi this is Auburn and Billie's sister, even though I don't work at The Dog Wash, I wanted to thank everyone who voted for them. It's nice to know they have this kind of following after less than 2 years of being open. I know they do a great job with my crazy blue heeler. Thanks again.

To anyone who hasn't tried us, we are open 7 days a week, offer $5.00 nail trims (no appt. needed) and offer self service grooming as well. You can stop in anytime to meet our groomers or tour the shop.
