City Dog

Great company to work with. Called the day of to schedule an appointment to get my cat’s matting shaved. They said I didn’t need to make an appointment, just to come on in. Was in and out in 20 minutes and was a fraction of the price compared to other places I’ve been. Will be back!

This place is awesome! Walked in for my first time and asked to bathe my pup. And they took me right back to the washing stations. There are aprons, towels, and cotton balls to better assist in the bathing experience. There are different water settings (like flood or jet) so you can change it depending on what your dog likes (or tolerates). You get a pick of different shampoos and an option to add conditioner. The drying station was really nice too. A little bit of heat goes a long way with these dryers. They have brushes and puppy cologne for when you’re all finished. The entire price? $ 14. To be able to bathe my own dog without making a mess in my own house. Will definitely be back after a day at the beach or park!

I just have to say this will now be my go to place for my puppy dogs. Our little puppy got Ito some mess at the park and I needed to get him in for a bath ASAP and the staff was so friendly understanding and loving with the dogs. They both came home smelling so much better and looking great! Thank you so much for your service. Can’t wait to take them back.

Love this place!
I have a short haired 50 pound dog who hates running water. I can’t bathe him myself because I physically can’t hold him in the tub while he tries to escape.
I bring him here whenever he needs a good scrubbing. They do his glands and nails/​ears as well. For a dog who hates water, he is always comfortable with the guys who work at City Dog. They handle him very well.
They also have a large selection of treats and toys as well.

Took my dog there for the first time and he came home with four cuts. Not a word was mentioned to me about this upon picking him up. I realize accidents happen but felt the manager should be aware, so I emailed City Dogs. Didn’t hear a word, so I called to follow up and was promised I would hear back. Still waiting on that call.
Not impressed with the grooming or customer service at all.

Very knowledgable and friendly staff. Being a first-​time puppy owner can be overwhelming, but their recommendations made the process much easier.

What a great job Andrea did grooming my two Tibetan Terriers. They look sooooo cute now!
Thank you Andrea, Gary and staff for your attention to detail. Patch and Tux can’t wait to return for their next Spa Day!

LOVE this place! my dog always gets a PERFECT bath and nail trim here! amazing customer service too! they truly care about dogs and the human customers. I’ve had my dog for over 7 years and have tried many grooming places. City Dog is the best!

Prompt service. Knowledgeable product information. Great grooming for my two large dogs Lab and Shepard. They love the healthy food and treats.

I love this place! It’s only a couple blocks from my place so my dog and I frequent often. They hand deliver my giant bags of dog with only one day notice, and sometimes same day if they aren’t busy. The place has really good, top of the line treats like Stella and Chewy’s that my dog loves.
For their grooming part, I’ve washed my dog there, and all also paid them to do it and clip his nails. I definitely prefer letting them get dirty:)
Also, the staff and owner are always beyond awesome, the customer service is beyond any expectations. I’ve never had a bad experience there in the last year and a half, and the prices are on par with what I paid at petsmart in Orange County. Love City Dog!

It was our first time taking our English Bulldog to City Dog and we completely loved the results!!! Our baby Dozer couldn’t look and smell cleaner! We’re so happy with the service here. We will be coming back.

Solid place, always parking out front and has the high end specialty food that our dog needs. Gary is super helpful and hands-​on in running his business. Friendly employees and always willing to help out the customer…

I found out about City Dog from Unilocal and am so so grateful for everyone’s feedback!
I found my new groomer for my first rescue pup, Jane!
She was so sweet and immediately sat down on the ground to get acquainted with Moby.
I felt really comfortable leaving Moby with her.
It was only his third time getting groomed so I wanted this to be as stress free as possible.
She asked what I wanted specifically for his cut and what I was looking for. She recommended some products for itchy skin that my pup had.
The store is packed full of goodies – my puppies favorite food and treats were stocked and this is probably where I’ll be back to purchase.
They also give you 2 parking spaces in front (which were taken because of Comic Con craziness). I think this is super important especially in the heart of downtown SD.
I also really loved the fact that they asked for his rabies vaccination papers. No other grooming spot has done this before. Again, it made me feel really comfortable leaving my dog in such capable hands.
I love this place so much and I’ll be returning often to get my pup groomed. Nothin but the best here!

I just love this place! I’ve been coming here 2 years now and I just love how helpful the staff is. Even when you are doing the self grooming option they still come and help me hold my dog while I’m blow drying him and they always tell me to never worry about cleaning up my mess. It’s such a welcoming environment and you can tell that the staff loves their job. You also can’t beat $ 10 bucks to wash your own dog in a professional bathtub while also using their blow drying table AND you don’t even have to bring your own towels. They also have a bar full of treats you can purchase and all kinds of pet supplies.

This place is unbelievable! My chocolate Labrador was sprayed by a skunk Saturday night, I called them Sunday morning and they took her in ASAP. They got EVERY BIT of skunk smell out of her, and the cost was extremely reasonable. And to top it off, THEY ARE ALL VERY NICE PEOPLE. I will never take my dog anywhere else.

After Gary, owner/​manager, called to make things better and apologized, he called again and said his main groomer can fix the cut and guess what? She did. It is really short and it is gonna take some time to grow but her coat looks great now.
All the effort they put in to make things right, gets a 5star in my book and Mya’s haircut is 5star as well. Thank you City Dog

This place is awesome!
Very knowledgeable staff, plenty of organic options for pets, and they offer grooming as well.
It’s located right by a trolley station which is the only setback bc parking can sometimes be a conundrum and the people lingering in the area don’t always look too righteous.

If I could give City Dog 10 stars, I would! I have taken my pup here before, just for a shopping trip, and he was loved by each employee! Everyone is super helpful and has a clear love for animals.
I brought him back yesterday, with a few severe mats (he’s a Goldendoodle) and Andrea was able to get them out without shaving him down to his skin! I don’t know any other groomer who would’ve taken the time and care that she did to make sure my pup looks and feels amazing! Thank you so much Andrea!
I will definitely bring Charlie to City Dog forever!

I’ve come here about three or four times. All employees are animal loving and have great customer service. The day before your appointment they always call to confirm your appointment.
Now for the grooming part!
I like a close shave for my black labrador. They do a great job! Her coat is always even which is extremely hard considering all directions the hair grows. Her coat is ALWAYS shiny and soft for days. They have great shampoo and conditioner products.

The only place I like to take my dog to do a self wash.
It’s clean, they carry the best dog food, Acana, and the staff is always friendly.
I live near by so parking is not an issue for me, but I like to go mid day or after a beach trip to bathe my dog. They have three tubs, all different heights which is hard to find, and they have a spray hose that hangs above that truly helps conserve water while you are sudsing away. They supply clean towels at your disposal and everything is labeled properly, so cleaning up is easy. They offer Shampoo and conditioner, but I always bring my own. They also have three drying stations.
I would’t take my pampered pup anywhere else!
