Booking software for dog groomers

The front desk your salon never had.

How it works

Open for bookings tonight.

Set it up once. After that your calendar fills itself while you work.

  1. 1

    Tell us your hours and prices

    We start you with a full groom, bath and brush and common add-ons. Change any of it in a minute.

  2. 2

    Share your booking link

    Put it in your Instagram bio, Google profile and texts. Clients pick a service and a time that really is free.

  3. 3

    Groom. We do the chasing.

    Confirmations and reminders go out on their own. Clients confirm or cancel from the email.

Online booking

A booking page that prices every dog right.

Clients tell you about their dog first. The price and time adjust for its size, breed and coat before they pick a slot, so a doodle never books in at a beagle's price.

  • Prices and times for small to extra-large dogs
  • Breed and coat rules, like doodles or double coats
  • Add-ons such as nails, teeth and de-shed

Vaccines

No rabies proof, no booking.

Choose the vaccines you need. Clients add the expiry date and upload the certificate as they book. If it runs out before the appointment, they're asked for a current one first.

  • Photos or PDFs stored privately
  • Checked against the appointment date, not today

Calendar

Only times you can actually do.

Clients only see slots that fit the whole groom inside your hours. Clean-up gaps, time off and a daily dog limit are all respected, and two people can never grab the same time.

  • Split shifts and days off
  • Gap after each dog for clean-up
  • Daily cap so you don't burn out
Open times for Tuesday: 2:00, 2:30 and 3:00 PM, with 2:30 selected

Your desk

Your day on one screen.

Who's in, what they're having and what it costs. Pet codes like BITES show at a glance. Check in, finish or mark a no-show with one tap.

Desk view for tomorrow: Biscuit at 8 AM, Juniper at 10 AM and Pickle, flagged BITES, at 12 PM

Reminders

Fewer empty tables.

Every client gets a confirmation, a reminder two days before and another on the morning. One tap confirms or cancels, so a cancelled slot reopens for someone else instead of sitting empty.

  • Sent from your salon's name, replies come to you
  • You get an email for every new booking
  • Approve-first mode if you like to vet new clients

Mobile groomers

Run the van, not the paperwork.

Clients give their address, gate code and parking notes when they book, so everything you need is on the appointment before you pull up.

Questions

The things groomers ask first.

Anything else? Email hello@groomdesk.pet.

Do my clients need an app?
No. They book on your page in any browser and get emails with a link to confirm or cancel. Nothing to download.
Can I approve bookings before they're confirmed?
Yes. Choose whether online bookings confirm straight away or wait for your OK. Requests still hold the time so nobody else can take it.
Does it work for mobile groomers?
Yes. Turn on mobile mode and clients give their address, gate code and parking notes when they book.
Which vaccines can I require?
Rabies, DHPP and Bordetella. Clients add the expiry date and upload the certificate. If it will have expired by the appointment, they can't book until they upload a current one.
Can I price by breed or coat, not just size?
Yes. Set prices and times for small to extra-large dogs, then add rules for a breed or coat, like doodles or double coats.
What if two people book the same time?
Only one gets it. Times are checked on our server the moment someone books, so you never get a double booking.

Your next client is looking for a time.

Give them a page to book it. Set up takes about two minutes.
