Chicago, IL
Bowie Barker is a fast-growing franchise grooming brand founded May 2022 in West Hollywood by Jeff Platt (former Sky Zone CEO), Gara Post, and Michelle Sandonato as part of Post Investment Group. The Lincoln Park location on West Armitage Avenue is one of two Chicago-proper Bowie Barker shops (the other is South Loop). Brand tagline: “Premier Dog Grooming & Self-Dog Wash Services.”
Full-service grooming (bath, haircut, nail trim, ear cleaning, specialty treatments) plus “We Wash” DIY self-dog-wash tubs. Membership program offers discounts and priority scheduling for regular clients.
Dogs only. Brand and site are entirely canine.
Monday and Wednesday-Sunday 8 AM-6 PM. Closed Tuesday.
Self-dog-wash tubs are unusual outside DIY chains - clients can bathe between full grooms at lower cost. Membership perks plus a polished franchise atmosphere differentiate from independent neighborhood salons.
