First of all, this place is incredible! I brought both of my XL American Bullies here. The owner is super helpful, caring, and knowledgeable about the breed. The setup is very user-friendly, and it makes the process extremely easy for both of us! My Bullies aren't big fans of taking baths period lol. Gators Barks n Bubbles really simplified things. It can be such a daunting task with keeping them under control in the bath and the clean up afterward. The owner even came in an hour early for us when I informed her my female may not cooperate around other dogs she doesn't know. Top notch service, amazing value, A+ I recommend to this place absolutely everyone with a dog.

I had an emergency with my dog who needed a serious bath. The owner who is an absolute gem and the sweetest was beyond helpful, communicative, and just so pleasant and accommodating. The dog wash station is easy to use and was gentle on my dog who was very scared. Let me tell you, my dog smells so good right now! He’s very soft too. I will absolutely return here and I recommend this place to anyone with a dog. It’s convenient, affordable, and easy to use. Thank you again ❤️❤️ 🐕

Very clean, friendly owner very helpful. The wash tub is excellent. Adjustable tempeture, dispense soap with water for easy wash. Also has conditioner and flea and tick shampoo. It was easy for me and Cowboy loved it.

Excellent service by owner Voula, very kind and caring dog host, they offer private times if your pup needs to be alone. Amazing products all organic, my pupp loved the owner and self service dog bath. Very pleased, Za and I will be back for more scrubs.

Excellent experience and we’ll definitely be back. Incredibly reasonable pricing and the owner was such a pleasure to talk to. My Sadie and Lily are so clean and smell so good!

Love this place!!! Our boy is a very scared/shy when it comes to new places and a lot of noises. He leaves smelling fresher than ever 😊 the bath station is really cool!!

Five stars from me too and I'm so happy to be in the company of so many other happy Patrons of this place! I was in the capitol district for a family wedding and I wanted to bring my two dogs somewhere for a bath before a long ride home (I live in eastern Massachusetts.) Google brought me here and I had the nicest experience. I use DIY dog washes for my two boys often but I have never been to one where the owner truly welcomes and just loves every pup that comes in. What a nice experience we had here.Voula, please open a location in eastern Mass!BTW, the lady that gave this wonderful place a 1 star review because the dog bath machines weren't private enough has obviously never been to many DIY dog washes. Looking at her profile it seems that she isn't happy anywhere she goes. Sheesh!

We took our pomeranian Bella here a few days ago for the first time and we will definitely be back. The owner was on site and extremely helpful with showing us how to navigate the machine. Lots of towels to use if desired and doggie treats as well. What a great establishment! Thanks again

I bring my old beagle here and we always have a great experience. The owner is very sweet. Definitely worth giving your dog a bath here rather than the tub at home!

I took my dog Sampson for his first wash here based on reviews and being unhappy with our former self serve dog wash. This is a wonderful place to bring your dog!! The service was amazing and I left with a very happy and clean dog! Thank you! We will be back soon!

Our 501 rescue brings ALL our rescues to GATORS because GATORS is the BEST! The dogs are happy and feel safe there because they are being bathed by their human companion. The place is very welcoming, clean & Voula is the BEST!YOU MUST GO SEE FOR YOURSELF!

Gators is amazing! They have a full tub with a door that your dog can step right into. The machine It's easy to use, it has a touch screen and you can pause it If you need a second to move your dog. The owner is very friendly and usually always there if you need help, She also supplies treats and towels and a few fragrance sprays. Always plenty of parking

We traveled 48 miles from our home and we’re glad we did! There’s nothing like this dog wash near us. Groomers are outrageously expensive.Excellent experience. Helpful staff.Amazing bargain.We’ll be back.

This place is amazing. We have two doodles with thick curly hair and the dog wash station makes giving them a bath so easy. The owner is so helpful and always has some love and a treat for your pet. Would highly recommend!

This place is awesome! It's very clean, reasonably priced, and easy to use. The tub is state of the art with a non-slip surface, which made my Pongo much more comfortable. You can use as many towels as you need, and the dryer works well. The products smell great, and I especially appreciated the flea wash! HIGHLY recommended!

I love this place! So easy and inexpensive. The owner is incredibly kind and helpfu! I had to take my pup in twice in three days because he kept rolling in something foul 🤢 and the second time he hopped right in tub because he knew he would enjoy it! 5 stars all the way!

We took Jameson to Gator's for the first time today. This business was highly recommended to me by my daughter who brings her three Goldens here. This place is amazing. Everything is all in one place and very easy to use. Warm water, shampoo, conditioner, flea/tick control, fresh towels and a blow dryer are all provided. What makes this place even more fabulous is the teriffic owner. Voula is very friendly and helpful and fully explains the entire procedure from beginning to end. We will definitely return with Jameson for all his future baths and will recommend Gator's to everyone. Thanks Voula !!!

Chewie and I had a great experience here! The owner is super friendly and accommodating, and the machine is easy to use. Less than half the price of a basic wash at PetSmart and Chewie smells much better!

I wish I could give twice as many stars! The owner, Voula, is obviously a dog lover AND everything about her place speaks to how thoughtful she is. We have had Nova (110# German Shepherd) to different DIY dog grooming places as well as taking him to professional groomers. He doesn't like getting a bath. Because of his size and strength he is usually quite challenging to get in the "tub" and keep there. He could sense this place was different. Voula had two options for easily getting dogs into the bathing area.. nice wide steps with textured treads or a ramp holding dogs up to 250#. The sides on the "tub" made it easy for Nova to feel safe and be contained and it kept us much drier than our other experiences. Voula has everything you need.. shampoo, conditioners, towels, driers...Trust me, you won't find a better place in which to groom your pet.

Easiest dog washing session ever! Molly doesn't like to get a bath. But, when she got in the "tub" with an easy access door, see-through walls, a short chain to keep her centered, and found the water perfectly warm she just stood there and "enjoyed" her shampoo shower! Next a rinse, then dry skin treatment, rinse, conditioner, rinse, towel dry, and a lovely warm blow-dry, done! 8 minutes, easy peasy when your little buddies can't runaway, tangle your feet or pull you around the yard. Tub raises your dog so you don't have to bend over! Did I mention the dog securing chain? What a wonderful, convenient setup! 5 Stars is the least I rate this typically challenging made easy experience!!!!!

Our dog was comfortable and came out cleaner then ever I’m so glad I stumbled apon this place and will never go anywhere else THANK YOU!

This place was incredible convenient we were traveling from the Saratoga National Battlefield to Woodstock and noticed a deer tick on one of our pups and found Gator’s on the trip back. The owner was extremely helpful and friendly with our pups. The tubs were very convenient and made for a quick and easy bath for both pups

We went for the first time with our dog Bella today. The owner is the nicest person and it was so much easier to bathe her there then at home. The machine is already loaded with the stuff you need. Definitely will go back :)

Gator’s is the BEST, and Voula is the sweetest! You don’t need to bring anything but your pup. 😊🐶
