Good to know
WAGS started in 2002 and has served San Francisco on Polk Street, near Lafayette Park, for over 20 years. The grooming happens out in the open, often with a crowd at the window.
Dogs are free to socialise and play in the grooming area before and after their turn. Quieter dogs have their own calm space, small dogs play separately, and nervous dogs can unwind at slow-dry stations with gentle warm air.
Every visit includes a wellness report to help track your dog's health over time.
