Our professional staff will make your dogs grooming experience as stress-free as possible, with plenty of kind and patient attention. All grooming is done by appointment, so you do not leave your dog the entire day. Instead we ask that you return when your dog is finished.
Self service grooming is a new concept to most pet owners in our area. Once you give it a try you will be hooked and will recognize all of the benefits for you and your pets. A clean pet is a happy, healthy pet. We offer a stress free environment and an affordable option to using your hose or dirtying your bath tub to keep your pet clean.
Our boutique is full of fun, pampering and even practical items for your dog. There's always something new and you never know what you will find. From Doggie sweaters and coats, collars and leashes, beds, grooming products, bowls and treat jars, to travel bags. And if we don't have it, we can probably get it.

We stopped in for a quick nail trim and Laura did a fantastic job. My dog is very scared/shy when getting his nails trimmed but Laura made sure he was calm and safe while taking her time cutting his nails. Amazing staff that really cares about the well-being and safety of your pets!

My 16 yr. Old chi. Luna Was very difficult to get her nails cut but Laura did in gently and with ease. All the gals in the shop were always very nice. Her prices were very reasonable. Sadly, my Luna passed October, 2021. And I have moved from Toms River. I wish them the best. Nancy lozosky

It really was fun to bathe my golden retriever for a change and I saved a lot of money. It's a great idea and I will definitely return.

Brought my 4 legged babies to the establishment and found it to be very tight. Decent place for small dogs and medium dogs but definitely not BIG DOGS.

This establishment is great!. I have only been going there for 4 months now (3 haircuts/groomings) but I have found them to be the best groomers. A kind and professional staff who treats my dog like he's a king. Heather is the best groomer that my dog has had.

Took my Daisy girl here on 6/29/21 to have her Groomed and her nails cut. They did a great job and Daisy was a happy puppy when I picked her up and that's what matters most to me. Scheduled my next appointment right then and there.

They did an amazing job with our long hair border collie. The staff was very helpful, friendly and did a great job on my dog. Blue and I were happy, will definitely recommend them to anyone in the market for a new groomer. Thank you again.

I have been taking my dogs to rub a dub for a couple years now, I have always paid the same price. Winter, spring, summer or fall. Picked up my dog yesterday, charged 15 bucks more than ever before. My dog doesnt even get a hair cut, just de shedding and a bath. It is alot of of work I know, but her answer was " it depends on her coat at the time". Idk about shelling out 80 bucks for an hours work. Then tip on top of that. She was just there 2 months prior. Well, I guess its time to look elsewhere.

Took our 2 white Schnoodles here few months back as our usual place was booked. They were very nice when we dropped them off however when we picked them up I found they were very expensive & the one woman told me my one girl had a flea!? Ummm no sorry my girls don't have fleas & if there was something on her, she got it from your place! The ride home our girls were jumpy & seemed a little scared. Will NOT be taking them back there.

So i called ahead because i have a mini poodle and i wanted to trim her in a few spots. So i spoke to the lady who called and said id like to trim her do you have a grooming table and can i trim her there. The lady said hold on a minute asked me if i had my own equipment i said yes she then told me that would be fine. So on a Sunday i drive all the way to the place when i get there i was informed that i could not groom my dog. This was a very frustrating experience I would of at least expected a call or something before i drove all the way to the store.

This place was great. I washed one of my huskies while the other one was getting groomed. My female husky is complete pain the butt when it comes to grooming. The girls at Rub a dub were sweet and gentle with her. Even though my pup was being a royal pain, the girls did an amazing job. Thank you.

Awful. Rude. Overpriced. My dog was treated like crap. His nails were barely cut. He was wet when I picked him up. There was some old lady trying to manage him and he's a heavy strong boy. She seemed scared of my dog too. Which really pissed me off because he's a sweet baby and why the heck is she working there to begin with?! I mean absolutely ridiculous! It made no sense. Also they told my brother they won't groom his dog anymore because he's older. What a joke. Take your business anywhere but here!

I had both of my dogs groomed here a few days ago. Just baths and nails, plus a little trimming. I would say it was mediocre. Their nails weren't very smooth despite buffing, and the tail of one was trimmed without me asking - I didn't want that done. Also, the standard shampoo used doesn't smell very good. Smells like wet dog - even though they're not wet. Not a bad job, just no reason for me to go back.

I brought my medium sized dog into Rub A Dub Dog Wash for a self serve wash. The employees were friendly and asked what we needed when we walked in the doors, however they didn't ask for my pets name, they did not show any interest in my pet, which was strange since it is a pet friendly business. After I paid, they wrote down my name and address on a sheet of paper.

They also handed me a business card and a magnet. which was nice as well, but I would have liked more of a conversation. I felt as if i was intruding on their space by washing my dog in their self serve station. The employees were just talking among themselves while washing and cutting other dogs. They only showed remote interest in me while i had my credit card in my hand.

They also had what appeared to be hundreds of dog related objects for sale, I wasn't sure if it was a dog wash or a pet store. I had to walk in a little further before I realized that it was in fact a dog wash. Every single self serve dog wash I've been too at least offered my pet a treat or a pet on the head, but not rub a dub dog wash. I'm sure if i had a cute little 14 pound dog the employees would have paid much more attention to me.

This place is a complete rip off. I spent 50 dollars for them to wash my dog and cut his paws. They didnt touch the rest of his body. I couldnt believe it. I will never go back to this place.

When I called to get information I specifically asked I the caged and was told no the keep them leashed in the area. I made appointment and brought her in. My first impression was dingy. The first women I dealt with was very nice and helpful. I asked to be called 15-20 mins before she was ready to allow for travel. They called when she was done not ahead.

When I got there she was in a cage. Exactly what they said they would not do. When I complained the other women takes her out of the cage and dragged her the last 3 feet. Unreal. As for the cut very uneven. For the same price you can go anywhere else and that is what I would recommend.

I loved the people who ran this! brought my pom in for a cut and wash, and boy he went from looking like a mop to looking like a million bucks! they were able to get me in the day I called, which was fabulous! They only thing is they were pretty expensive. After tip it cost me $70.00. Definitely worth it though!
