Paula And Veronica’s Bark Avenue

The best groomer we have been to, we found our new home! Rudy smelled so good and looked so primped when he came home. The prices are great & you get a cute little bandana to go home with you. You must bring your pup here!

Sara’s been coming to Bark Avenue for some time and we couldn’t be happier with them. They get us in when we ask for last minute appointments, she’s in & out quickly and CLEANLY! and they are very friendly. They get right down on the floor with Sara to play and make her feel safe. Thanks, folks. Keep up the wonderful work.

If I could give them 10 stars I would!
Recently, I moved to Ventura, and with the stress of the move I wanted to pamper my pooches. I couldn’t choose any old groomer and I dare not ever seek the services of Petco or pet smart for grooming, so I jumped on Unilocal and found these ladies. Not only are they major animal lovers, my dogs loved them so much, when we came to pick them up they didn’t want to leave! These ladies are pros at what they do, the great price is just an added bonus. I have loyally become a regular and my self and my pups couldn’t be happier!
Oh, they use only all natural products and they did my dogs together, which made them less anxious and I was able to run some errands while my pups got pampered, thanks ladies you rock!!! My pups are so smooth and silky, clean and happy, we can’t wait to see you before Christmas! Xoxo

Bianca loves P&V’s BARK AVENUE. She goes every week, because anyone that has a Pug knows the ears, folds, nails and eyes need constant attention. She, as well as ALL animals there, get special attention. They use top of the line products and my girl comes home always smelling wonderful. Paula is gentle and fantastic; she’s a Dog whisperer!

This place is awesome! Very friendly! My dog Skye loves coming here. She always comes home smelling so good! I really recommend this place.

I am so pleased with Bark Avenue and the service I receive there. I have never had to complain and I have been with them since they worked out of Applause for Paws. When I was so upset with Buena Pet Hospital she steered me to Ohana and I have never been happier. When I pick up my dogs Paula always tells me if their ears are dirty or if their anal glad had a strange colored discharge or any other issues. I have taken my dogs to the vet on her advice and Paula was correct that there was a health issue I needed to address.
Yes the place can be quite noisy at times, but that is the nature of dogs. My dogs are excited to go and walk right in and get in one of the cages without being told; and that is odd for my dogs.
When my dogs are boarded I always have them washed, and I have tried several other groomers during the time Paula was moving her store, but I found her work and service the best by far. I feel I found the best groomer in Ventura.

Excellent place! They did a great job with my Shih Tzus! They were very accommodating for my one pup who must be hand dried. Very decently priced for all that they do. Friendly staff, unlike other grooming places I’ve been to in the area. I definitely will be bringing my dogs here again.

Love this place. Great work. Does not keep your pets ALL DAY, like some. Easy to find. Reasonable prices.

this is a great place, most of all they are friendly too. .They took real good care of my dog lola. I cant say enough great things about them.

I’ve been taking my dog, Elvis, there since he was a pup. I absolutely love the service I get, prices are very reasonable when I ask my friends what they pay to have their dogs groomed. Elvis smells so good afterward, and he is always so excited to go there, he knows the way there. I always recommend this place to people when they ask about dog grooming.

It’s been five years since I last wrote a review here and this place still is the best in town. When I drop off my dogs I don’t worry for one moment about the care and safety of my three dogs. Paula and Veronica absolutely are outstanding. They also care for my moms dog. My dogs are part of my family and are treated so well here. I wouldn’t go anywhere else. If there is an issue they are concerned about with my dogs health they tell me. They are very upfront about things. Prices are very reasonable. I would never go anywhere else for grooming for my pets.

I’ve been going to Bark Avenue for several years and my little guy always comes home looking like a show dog. Paula and Veronica are very caring and will always point out anything that might be a potential problem, a cyst, an itchy area, etc. Very reasonably priced and they don’t take all day to get the job done.

I took my Labradoodle in for only his second groom ever. The first was at a different grooming place. He is a little afraid of the clippers and anything that makes noise (like the dryer too). They took their time and were very caring and it worked out great! His hair looked good, and he was happy when I picked him up. Almost like he had been at the dog park instead of the groomer (don’t get me wrong, he did want to go home), they were great!

Bark Alley is the right name for this loud place!
If you want your dog to join in on the piercing loud yipping and barking of several other nervous stressed out dogs, Then come to bark alley.
They have not a clue when a dog is stressed out and needs calming.

Service with a smile! Friendliest place in town, great prices and great groomers. Won’t go anywhere else

I’m so pleased with how well my little Shih Tzus Lucy was treated by the ladies here. The staff are very friendly and answer any questions or concerns you have regarding your pet. They even got a bow in Lucy’s hair, though she shook it out the first chance she got, but she rocked her Candy Corn handkerchief all month. Her haircut from the first of October has lasted over a month and that’s really impressed me, because normally after a few weeks I cannot see her eyes, but I’ve seen her pretty brown eyes all month long.
Thanks girls, see you next week!

Took my cat here a couple of weeks ago for a lion cut. I’ve never had my cat groomed before and was a little nervous since she’s a bit high-​strung, but her shedding was getting out of control. After talking with the groomer I was put at ease and knew my cat would be in good hands.
I returned an hour and a half later to a happy and clean kitty! Her lion cut looked great and she smelled great. I’d often seen photos of cats with a lion cut looking ashamed but not my cat! She loves her lion cut and we’ll be coming back again.

Paula and veronica are the only ones I trust with my kitties when it comes to grooming. They are great at their jobs.

I have taken my short haired dog to a lot of good groomers
But sfter I take her here she smells good and feels clean for about twice as long. I don’t know their secrt but they are good!

My mother-​in-​law says that Bark Avenue is the BEST EVER!
Today, I was helping my mother-​in-​law with errands. We brought her dog, Madison, here to be groomed (shaved).
We dropped Madison off at 12ish and we picked him up at 3:30.
When we picked Madison up he was really cute and he smelled good… like a great shampoo smell. He was adorned with a lightweight green bandanna trimmed with a zig zag cut (made from pinking shears).
The price was $ 40. The groomer was Veronica. My mother-​in-​law adores her and so does Madison.
For these reasons, I award Bark Avenue… 5 Stars * * * * *
Location: They are about 1 block N. of Ventura High. The Seaside Electric signs are more prominent. You can drive through to park vs. on the street. (See pictures)
