Good to know

Shannon and Monica started What a Wonderful Woof as a mobile grooming service in 2018 and opened the Belmont Ave salon in 2022. The van still runs alongside the salon, with the same menu.

The van is self-contained, bringing its own water and power, and grooms one dog at a time outside your home across the Northwest Side and nearby suburbs, including Elmwood Park, River Grove, Harwood Heights, Norridge and Park Ridge.

Baths and full grooms are by appointment.

  • Lick mats

    Lick mats

    Something to lick, stuck to the tub wall or the floor, keeps a lot of dogs still for a bath or a nail trim.

  • Non-slip rugs and runners

    Non-slip rugs and runners

    Hard floors are where older dogs slip. A runner along their usual route gives them grip.
