Not enough space to bathe your pets at home? No problem!
Bubble-It-Yourself (BIY) is a self-service pet bath kiosk that just opened in Bonifacio Global City.
A first of its kind in the Philippines, BIY is a fully equipped station with gentle and medicated shampoo, conditioner dispensers, adjustable water temperature and pressure, dryer machines, and microfiber towels to groom your pets without the hassle of cleaning up afterward.
As for the fur parents, you’ll be provided a waterproof apron.
According to BIY managing director Soyoung Shin, a do-it-yourself pet bath kiosk is a common concept in South Korea, given that many citizens live in an apartment.
“This is common in Korea because the labor is high, and the houses are all apartments, so I think the Philippines is ready for this kind of technology,” Shin told GMA News Online.
If you wish to avail, all you have to do is bring your pets - dogs and cats of all sizes are welcome – and avail of an RFID card which you can load a minimum of P500. It’s reloadable so that you can use it for every visit.
Each session is priced at P380 for 20 minutes, making it an affordable option for pet owners. An additional P190 is charged for every 10-minute extension, ensuring you only pay for the time you use.
Meanwhile, if you wish to leave your pet’s pampering sessions to an expert, BIY has groomers trained by Korean experts who can give them a stylish and comfortable haircut.
BIY’s grooming packages range from P1980 to P3480. It is located at High Street South Corporate Plaza.
