Mobile Dog Wash

Mobile Dog Wash is a home-visit grooming service working out of Noble Park North in Melbourne's south-east, so the wash and groom happen at the customer's address rather than in a shop. Reviewers who are happy with it name Simone as the groomer, and their feedback dwells as much on how she handles the dog as on the finished coat.

Calmness is the thread running through the positive reviews. One owner whose dog was not sociable found Simone was the only person able to work with him, and others describe her talking through each step with both the owner and the dog before starting, and giving advice on what a coat actually needs. Turning up on time comes up more than once, as does the sense that the price matches the work. A three-year-old spoodle is among the regulars. It suits owners of dogs that find a busy salon too much, and anyone who would rather not travel to an appointment.
