A new self-service dog wash has opened in Wirral, giving muddy pups a professional clean before they head back home. Wirral couple John and Sue Stephens have opened Dog Wash Wirral at Croft Retail Park, describing the concept as “a dog laundrette” designed to make life easier for local dog owners.

The new facility is based at 4 Carrock Road on Croft Retail Park in Bromborough (CH62 3RA) and allows dog walkers to wash and dry their pets using industrial-style equipment without the mess of cleaning them at home. Owners can book and use the wash privately, meaning there are no other dogs present during sessions — something that has already proved popular with owners of nervous or reactive dogs.

For £15, dogs receive a deep clean using professional jet wash equipment, helping tackle muddy paws, wet fur and the aftermath of countryside walks or beach trips. John and Sue say the idea came from recognising a gap in the market for a quick, convenient and stress-free washing solution for dog owners across Wirral.

John explains: “As dog owners ourselves, we understand what it’s like to take dogs home after a walk caked in mud — it’s a nightmare trying to clean them and avoid your house getting ruined! Unlike traditional grooming appointments, the self-service setup allows owners to wash their dogs themselves in a controlled environment, avoiding clogged baths, muddy bathrooms and difficult clean-ups at home.”

The couple believe the private-use aspect of the service is one of its biggest advantages, particularly for dogs that become anxious around unfamiliar animals. Owners have the facility to themselves and simply place their dog in the spa, with simple instructions for how to jet wash them — resulting in a thoroughly clean dog to take home.
