The Barking Lot

The Barking Lot The Barking Lot has state of the art self washing stations for you to bathe your own dog and provides complete grooming services. SELF WASH NOW OPEN!

Come cool off with us this Summer! APPOINTMENT RECOMMENDED AS ONLY TWO TUBS ARE AVAILABLE
$20 PER DOG/PER 30 MINUTES


The Barking Lot is a state of the art self-service dog wash where dog and owner bond while enjoying a place where safety and cleanliness are the standard for an easy time to wash their pet. Dog owners have No clean up as The Barking Lot cleans disinfects between each wash. Add-ons

that are often needed between grooms such as nails, ears, glands, and so forth can be done at bath time or any other time, no appointment is necessary for self wash or add-ons. The Barking Lot understands the issue of dogs waiting in a kennel to be groomed or picked up versus letting dogs roam freely in the grooming area. I have read reviews about smell and cleanliness and decided that the best way to address this issue is to never overbook, but to set appointments sequentially. This cuts into revenue because fewer dogs are groomed but in turn each dog has the groomer's undivided attention. Little or no time is spent in the kennel waiting to be groomed and we call the owner 10- 20 minutes before the grooming is finished to keep kennel time to a minimum. Each kennel has a soft rug and water so kennel time is as comfortable as possible. Full Service Grooms and Bath and Tidy's are performed with the time needed to insure each dog is carefully groomed. The price always includes nails, ears, glands (if necessary), and a blueberry facial! You know you can't leave your dog in the car and you need to shop or go for appointments. Park your dog at The Barking Lot. Fees are designed to save you gas money and time. Grooming Services allow an extra hour for pick up at no charge. The Barking Lot is located in the Target Shopping Center, right Beside Trader Joes, with both TJ’s and The Barking Lot being right on 111 in Cathedral City. 760-647-BARK (2275). As you pass Trader Joes coming from Palm Springs the next shop you see is The Barking Lot and our name is at the top of the building. If coming from Palm Desert we are in the same building as Pollo Loco, Subway and right next to Bahama Mama's yogurt shop, Look for our shop located right on 111 By the Pollo Loco Drive thru. 67730 E. Palm Canyon Drive, Suite 102C Cathedral City, CA 92234.

The Barking Lot is doing a trial to see if opening early for self-wash helps dog owners who prefer to take their dogs out to avoid midday heat.
By appointment only we will book appointments for the self-wash beginning at 7 AM.
Your dog will still be able to walk the red carpet into the shop, protecting paws along the way.
There will be no additional fees for this early service while we determine if it is a viable offering.

The Fourth of July will soon be here and so will frightened and lost (escaped) dogs who want and need to get home. This is a reminder that The Barking Lot may be able to help!
As a service to the community should anyone find a dog that needs to be scanned during working hours or at hours that scans are not available, please call The Barking Lot so we may help. After hours let the phone ring and it will ultimately forward to my cell phone. We will do our best to help you find the owner. Getting a lost dog back to their owner in the shortest period of time is the goal. The phone number for The Barking Lot is 760-647-BARK (2275). This service will be available until 10 PM on the Fourth . Any time after that the service will be available until 9 PM with our schedules permitting.

SUMMER 2025
LET’S MAKE IT EASIER FOR YOUR DOG

Here at The Barking Lot, we know as you do that the pavement gets very hot here in the desert. Taking your dog out, if it is not easy and doesn’t protect your dog, it’s not going to happen. We want to make it easy and protect your dog. GIVE YOUR DOG THE RED CARPET TREATMENT.
Much like the days of Covid when you pull up to the shop call us. We will come out and greet you and your dog and walk your dog up the red carpet while you park your car. When it’s time to leave, we will wait for you to pull up to the red carpet and walk your dog out to your car. Your dog’s paws will not have to walk across a hot pavement for a self-wash, grooming services, or nails. Your dog is royalty and should be treated as such!!
