Changing oil myself, how to reset onboard computer?

    Hello

    Oil change coming up for me and I'd like to change it myself to avoid paying a mechanic. My car has a feature which shows oil left as a %. So when it's at like 10% it means oil change is coming up. If I change the oil myself, would a garage want to (if I payed of course) just reset the computer for me so it says 100%? I've never reached 0% but I assume a message comes up saying that I need to change my oil and I'd like to avoid that. What does it cost usually for a garage to just reset that? Also are there any ways that I can reset it myself? I don't have any fancy diagnostic tool or w/e it's called.

    Thanks
