Rogers Bark Pet Salon

Rogers Bark Pet Salon

A small, appointment-only grooming salon at 1447 W Jarvis Ave in Rogers Park, a few steps from the Jarvis Red Line station.

Hours

• Tuesday–Saturday: by appointment only, opening at 7:00 AM
• Sunday and Monday: closed

The shop's own description is that it "typically closes when the last dog leaves" — so there is no fixed closing time. Book ahead; this is not a walk-in operation.

Hand-stripping is the standout. Most Chicago salons will only clipper a wire-coated dog, because hand-stripping is slow, labor-intensive work. Pulling the dead outer coat by hand instead of cutting it is what keeps the harsh texture and correct color on terriers, schnauzers, and wire-haired pointers — clippering a wire coat softens it and fades it, permanently. If you have a wire-coated breed, a groomer who actually does this is worth a trip across the city.

Other services: full professional grooming, nail trims, ear cleaning, teeth brushing, and nail trims for cats.

Pricing is not published. Hand-stripping in particular is priced by time and coat condition — ask for an estimate when you book.

Getting there: Jarvis Ave just west of Greenview, essentially at the Jarvis Red Line stop. One of the few good groomers in the city reachable without a car from the Far North Side.
