Mudpuppy’s Tub & Scrub

MudPuppies at Point Isabel is great, I had to take my dog to get a bath before getting him in the car and Claudio did a great job. He is nice, my dog is not pulling away with him or crying –doesn’t usually like dog bath places. On week days is usually a few minute to no wait. Weekends are busier.

I love Mud puppy’s and I’ve used the self wash for many years. Everyone is friendly and the facilities are nice and clean. Unfortunately, I have had to stop using the self wash because of the price. It has gone from $ 7 five years ago to $ 20 now. I just can’t support this price increase. As soon as the new shop was opened in the city, it seems this Pt. Isabel shop is a poor step child. Everything went up! Oh well…

What a great service! So convenient too. Staffs were friendly to us and dogs. It took only 15 minutes to get washed, nail trimmed and oatmeal conditioned. My dogs were happy and so were we A+++++
They towel-​dry dogs instead of using blow dry that scares dogs.

This is a great Mud Puppy’s location. I love that they are right next to Point Isabel dog park so if your dog gets dirty you can get them washed right then and there. They did an awesome job with my dog’s nail clipping too, the groomer did it in 20 seconds and it’s the only time my dog hasn’t cried getting his nails clipped.
The Sit ‘N Stay café has really good (people) food, so you can grab a bite before taking your dog to play in the park. It’s become my weekend routine to grab breakfast sandwiches and coffee at Sit ‘N Stay before letting our pup explore and play with his buddies.
Thanks Mud Puppy’s!

After calling in and finding out that they DO NOT provide grooming services/​cutting but only do bathing services and some additional basic add ons, we decided to still give them a try because of their reviews and also because the lady on the phone said they have a ton of Corgi regulars that get brushed out in a de-​shedding kind of way after the bath. Corgi’s shed like crazyyy if you didn’t know, I can’t even deal! Staff was mellow and friendly, we even grabbed some beverages at the next window while our little guy got bathed. The café is a cute place for dog owners to socialize and grab a snack!
Now we arrive at the 2 stars– lets get straight to the point: we paid over $ 60 for our dog to look completely the same, furry as ever. We were told that a little bit of this and a little bit of that would be included in the wash since they don’t groom remember, but they ended up not doing any of it. We felt ripped off and will never wander away from our usual groomers in Alameda where they bathe and groom for like $ 45! (Cough cough Under One Woof)

Fast service that included a pedicure too. Coming at sunset, there was no wait and we were done in 15 minutes.
I really appreciate that they do not use dryers, toweling off dogs instead. So your dog will not be completely dry, but much less stressed out.

Point Isabel has been a huge part of my life for the last 6 years. Every weekend the Mrs. and I would take our fur baby there for a day of gopher staring contests. When play time was over, it was off to Mudpuppy’s for a bath, blow dry and pedicure. While Bruiser enjoyed his spa time, me and the Mrs. would indulge in a delicious meal at the Sit And Stay Café. A couple of Arnold Palmers and a pastrami sandwich later, Bruiser would appear as fluffy and white as ever. The staff is incredible, and we all love to see them. Bruiser actually gets excited to go get a bath, and I am always excited to have a chili cheese dog. Nowadays, with a new addition to our family, I’m at Point Isabel 3 – 4 times a week. My son is growing up with the Mudpuppy’s staff, and a love for all things four legged. Shout out to Jay, Blake, Jezer, Claudio, Kate, Ash, Tyler, Jen and the rest of the crew. Thanks for all that you do, you are all awesome!

This place has the cheapest nail clipping service in town. My little shiba inu cries bloody murder whenever I try to give her nails a trim. But here she just sits there very calm and the process is quick and without the unneeded sound effects which I equate to a baby being dropped in hot oil. $ 11 for the thing is a deal too considering I don’t have to deal with the shiba doggie attitude.

First time bringing my pup Louie to Mudpuppy’s for a much needed bath after an adventure around Pt. Isabel. He got a basic wash and a nail trim for about $ 35 (don’t remember exact total), which I think is a little steep considering they were done in like 10 min but that’s my only reason for not giving a full 5 stars. I recommend making an appointment on weekends, it’s a popular spot! You can easily make an appointment online and they send you reminders.
The staff is friendly and the girl told me about 15 minutes, so I went to go get some food from the café next door. I got stuck in that line for a while so the she actually came and found me in line to return my dog! So very convenient. And he returned with a red bowtie and smelling fresh.
They also sell treats, collars, and other pet miscellanea and it was all decorated for Halloween when I went on Oct. 3. I love it when businesses get festive!

I love mud puppies. We take our pooch to Point Isabel regularly to play and enjoy the bay breezes, and eventually we had to stop in for some treats and a wash. A quick wash and a happy, clean puppy. Friendly staff, reasonable prices and three location is just perfect. We will be back again… and again… and again.

Mudpuppies is the place for Buster– he’s on a first name basis with most of the staff, loves mugging for Jay on photo-​spa days, and has broken the hearts of more than a few of the lovely ladies that take care of him here.

Mudpuppies is so wonderful! They have done such a great job expanding their business! I started going here about 10 years ago when I was a teenager and we brought our family dog to pt. isabel. They began as a small trailer with tubs and a great idea! They now have expanded to a larger facility and a little window restaurant which is exactly what the place needed!
Beyond this, the owner still remembers my family and says hello whenever we see

My bath-​averse basset always enjoys getting the spa treatment here. And the oatmeal-​based shampoo is soothing to his oily skin and helps him smell a little less ‘hound-​y’! The staff are great and super friendly, and there’s always a treat waiting at the end.

Every time we go to Point Isabel we book an appointment at Mudpuppy’s because my dog inevitably ends up in the water or rolling around in the dirt (usually both). We’ve been coming for so many years that the staff now recognizes our pup. They treat her super well and she always comes out clean and smelling great! She also enjoys the treat that she gets with the bath. On weekends they can get pretty busy, but it’s really easy to book online, so I recommend that you do that.

I generally will give my pup a bath at home but wow, is it nice to not have to do that! Everyone who works there is so gentle and sweet! She was in and out in 15 mins Price is reasonable for a bath and added nail trim for $ 7. Much better then pricing then what our vet offers and she gets to run around after her treatment which makes her super happy. And so nice to sit at café next door and enjoy a coffee.

I’ve been taking my dogs to Mudpuppy’s for over 15 years. For the last few years I’ve been having them give my big Bouvier girl a bath, blow-​dry, and nail trim. Jay and Claudio are simply wonderful with my dog, gentle, affectionate, and highly skilled. Rates are extremely reasonable. I do my own weekly combouts and monthly haircuts on my dog, so this is a perfect solution for an older person with arthritis. They’re beyond great! Don’t know what I’d do without them.

Kind, convenient, and always give a brief update of how the wash went. Reasonable price for having a clean and happy dog. They also trim nails and express anal glands. Yay. My dog always comes out happy and shiny.

Great place to get your dog washed great customer service best place to take your dog

Perfect! Super fast nail clipping for my pug who usually struggles and cries. They did a great job and my pup was totally calm the whole time. Just $ 11 for a nail trim and he got a free cookie after :)

Wonderful coffee and tons of veggie and meat loving fare at this dog park café!
GREAT views of Golden Gate Bridge, SF cityscape, Bay Bridge, and other surrounding landmarks.
Take a walk before/​after your snack/​meal!

Review for the Café Only
I absolutely love this place! I always take my dog for walks around Point Isabel, but on the weekends I like to treat myself to their café!
Service:
Always friendly and professional. And they always serve you with a smile. They have the best customer service in the area!
Food:
BLT on Bagel — My all time favorite. The bagel is lightly toasted. Just the right amount of mayonnaise. And a good helping of bacon. (enough so you can even share with your doggy friend)
Pastries — Their pastries are all on the dry side. Nothing too special about them. I think they might be from Costco.
Nachos — The nachos are best with the chili soup. Otherwise it’s a little below your average nachos dish.
Overall:
I would definitely recommend this to others!

My first time here with my golden retriever and chiwawa. We did the self wash for $ 16 per dog. The staff was very nice and helpful.
Make sure to make an appointment just in case it fills up at the end of the day.
I loved it, my dogs loved it, and we will come back again.

It is certainly a great place for dogs but I go there for the food!
The café has become a favorite among my coworkers & I.
You can find us there at least once a week.
On a sunny day we really enjoy eating outside & watching pups play.
On a not so sunny day we take it to go & enjoy it quite a bit back in the office.
Turkey avocado sandwich & Lox bagel are my favorites. Salads are great… They also make a killer Latte!

I love that they have this place at a dog park! Where else can you take your dog on a walk by the bay, eat some food, and then give your dog a bath and even their nails trimmed!
Seriously I’m really happy they have the Tub & Scrub. Especially after your dog gets muddy or goes in the water, you can take your dog to either do a self-​service wash or a full-​service wash where one of their employees does all the work while you wait.
If you’re doing a wash, I would recommend to book your appointment before you start so you don’t wait long once for a wash when you’re done walking the dog. Either way, I’ve never had to wait too long.
