Every 3 to 4 months. The coat is close to self-cleaning; the actual job is fully drying a hundred-plus pounds of dense white double coat, which is where a home bath usually falls short.
Weather and dirt resistant by design, bred for guarding livestock outdoors in all conditions. One of the more self-cleaning coats among common breeds.
The coat doesn't need frequent baths, but it does need frequent brushing.
More often only during a blowout or for a specific mess, since over-bathing strips the coat's natural protection.
Our XL/giant tier. Great pyrenees run 85-115+ lbs, always our largest tier.
Great pyrenees were bred to guard livestock outdoors in every season, and the coat evolved to handle that job without much help. Dirt tends to dry and brush out rather than needing a wash, which is unusual among common breeds and why the baseline schedule is only every 3 to 4 months. Bathing much more often than that actually works against the dog, stripping the natural oils that make the coat weather-resistant in the first place.
When a bath is genuinely needed, size becomes the real challenge. A great pyrenees running 85 to 115+ lbs carries a dense double coat that holds an enormous amount of water, and a towel or home hair dryer rarely reaches all the way to the skin. Left to air-dry, that much wet undercoat can take most of a day, which risks skin issues and leaves the dog uncomfortable in the meantime. A real forced-air dryer is what actually finishes the job.
Never shave a great pyrenees. The double coat regulates temperature in both directions and provides real sun protection. Shaving risks permanent coat damage and doesn't reliably reduce shedding once it grows back.
Infrequent by design. The self-cleaning coat resists dirt well enough that more frequent washing mostly strips protective oils without a real cleanliness gain.
A dog this size sheds a serious volume of undercoat during a blowout. A deshed bath with a soak and full forced-air dry clears it in one visit.
This is the real maintenance job for a great pyrenees. Regular brushing keeps the white coat from matting and manages the shed far more than bathing does.
A working or outdoor great pyrenees will occasionally find something worth a bath outside the normal schedule. A full wash and complete dry handles it.
If your vet has prescribed a medicated bathing plan for skin issues, that plan wins over this one.
Rarely, and that's genuinely good news for this breed. Most of the year the coat takes care of itself, and even the off-season bath is manageable at home if you have the time and equipment to actually dry a hundred-plus pounds of coat.
The van's forced-air dryer is what earns the $155: it gets a coat this dense fully dry, down to the skin, in about an hour instead of the better part of a day. In your driveway, no cage, done when we say it's done.

Owner-operated · Local service
I run Bay Area Mobile Dog Wash myself, and I’ve brought on groomers with 12+ years of experience — so now every cut, from a tidy trim to a full breed haircut, happens in the van at your curb. Every visit is one dog at a time: warm water, a full brush-out, a proper dry, and a haircut if you want one, with no salon drive and no cage waiting. The van is open to you the whole time — stand at the door and watch every minute if you like. Big dogs, heavy shedders and nervous seniors are the reason this service exists.
What our customers say
Wonderful experience! Ace did an amazing job grooming my Siberian Husky. She can be a little difficult and anxious during grooming, but Ace was incredibly calm and patient, which really helped keep her calm and comfortable too. She looked absolutely beautiful, clean, and fluffy when he was finished. I really appreciated the care and attention Ace gave her and would definitely recommend!
Ace at Bay Area Mobile Dog Wash was absolutely wonderful with my senior dog. He was so gentle and patient with him, which meant everything to me given his age -- I could tell he genuinely cared about his comfort throughout the whole process. Beyond the excellent care, Ace was warm, loving, and clearly an animal lover at heart, while also being completely professional from start to finish. It's rare to find someone who balances that kind of tenderness with real expertise, and my dog came out looking and smelling great without a hint of stress. Highly recommend Ace and Bay Area Mobile Dog Wash. Price is great!
Ace was punctual & accommodating. He was friendly & outgoing not only me & my husband but toward the dogs as well, calling them by name on our very first booking. Dogs came home clean & unstressed which is never the case when they’re washed at the groomer’s shop, around other dogs. Highly recommend.

We booked Bay Area Mobile Dog Wash for our 90-lb German Shepherd, Koda, who hates the groomer. Ace parked the van right in our driveway in Willow Glen, walked her up the ramp himself — no lifting, no cage, no other dogs — and I watched the whole wash from my doorstep. Bath, nails, ears, and she came back inside dry and calm. Flat $95 exactly as the website said, no surprise charges. We've already booked next month. 😊❤️
Ace did a great job with our little old chihuahua mix. Our appointment was for the evening and he came prepared with warm water, and made our sure our dog was comfortable the entire time. Don't let the lack of reviews on yelp scare you away, his prices are good, and he takes time to ensure that good work is done.
He did such an amazing job with my dog! He came out looking so nice, clean, and well-groomed, but what stood out to me most was how happy and comfortable he seemed afterward. You can really tell he was treated with care throughout the entire process. I'm extremely pleased with how everything turned out and would definitely recommend him!
Overall, we had a very positive experience with our first mobile grooming appointment. Although he arrived a little late due to a minor scheduling miscommunication, Ace was very kind, communicative, and especially patient with our dog, who can be anxious about grooming. He took the time to help him feel comfortable, completed the grooming efficiently, and our dog seemed happy and in great spirits afterward. We really appreciated his gentle approach and care!
SUCH a great - and easy! - experience! Asa was immediately responsive (I love when businesses actually answer their phone!), worked Moose in within 24 hours, was communicative throughout, bought unscented products specifically for us, did a great job with my 12 year old doodle … all in all: amazing service!

Ace was great with my 3 small dogs. They got washed and towel dried, their ears checked, their nails trimmed. One star off because he trimmed one nail too far and it bled for a long time, plus distressed my already anxious dog. Important to know that this service isn't van-based (yet). Ace brings a portable wash station to set up outside. He brings his own water and supplies. He doesn't do any hair cuts, just basic wash and towel dry. I'll call him again in the future!
