A mobile dog groomer working in a fitted-out van outside a customer's home in the UK

Booking software for mobile dog groomers in the UK.

The van is the salon: one groomer, one water tank, and an afternoon that only survives if each coat was booked at the length it genuinely takes.

The coat sets the length, not a menu

A cockapoo full groom and a hand-strip on a border terrier are different services with their own price and hours, which the diary then reflects.

Smart scheduling

One van, and no colleague to take it

A coat that runs over is not a small problem when nobody else is grooming. Pull the rest of the afternoon down the board and commit it in one go.

An overrun coat moves the whole day.

With nobody else grooming, forty minutes lost to a matted terrier is forty minutes taken out of every appointment behind it.

  • Drag it rather than rebook it

    Pull the next three grooms down the board, look at the shape of the afternoon, then commit them together instead of editing four bookings one by one.

  • Nothing can land on top of it

    The database itself declines two active bookings on the same van at the same time, whoever made them and whichever screen they came in from.

  • They hear it, once you enable it

    Switch the moved-booking email on and the news reaches the owner from you rather than from a doorbell nobody rang. Notifications ship off until enabled.

Three ways out of a matted coat.

Mats appear on the day rather than on the phone. The tidy, the de-mat and the clip-off priced side by side settles it at the van door.

  • The price follows the coat

    A de-matting line carries its own rate and its own additional hours, so agreeing it moves the total and the finish time in the same action.

  • Accepted by a typed name

    The quote goes as a link, opened on a phone in the hallway, and accepting means typing a name. The time and the device are stored alongside it.

  • Accepted becomes the booking

    An accepted quote converts into a booking carrying its lines and its length, so the extra ninety minutes is in the day before you set off.

A groom quote with the de-matting priced as its own line, carrying its own extra hour.

The next groom takes the cheapest gap.

Open windows are scored on the driving each adds to the day already in the van, and the least costly is put at the top for you to confirm.

With nothing left to offer, the owner leaves a request rather than leaving. It arrives as a card in a thread, accepted or declined in place.

One household, however many dogs.

The owner holds the address, the phone number and what they have spent. Each dog then sits under them as its own record, with its own coat.

Every coat that gets in the van

The grooms you actually book

Full groom, small breed

Bichons, shih tzus and miniature poodles listed at their own price and hours, so a small dog is never given a big dog slot.

Cockapoos and cavapoos

The poodle crosses carry a longer, dearer service of their own, which is less a pricing decision than an admission of what the coat is.

Hand-stripping

A stripped terrier coat booked at the hours it takes, as a service only the groomers who do hand work are ever offered.

Mats found on the day

De-matting is added as its own priced line with its own extra hours, agreed at the van door rather than quietly given away.

The clip-off

The welfare clip listed as a service in its own right, so the price and the length are seen before the coat is signed away.

Puppy first groom

A short introduction the pup is filed against, with its breed, its age and how it took the dryer kept on its own record.

Nails and a face tidy

Short services on short slots, filling the half hour between two full grooms rather than quietly eating into one.

Winter mud and matting

A wet-season feet-and-feathering tidy as its own short service, with what you found last time already on the dog record.

The six-weekly standing groom

Every six weeks, or every eight, set once and then left alone on the Free plan, appearing in the diary well ahead of the day.

Water, power and a space outside.

The van wants a kerb outside the house and a patch tight enough that two grooms are not an hour apart. Claim the areas you genuinely work.

Past your coverage. Decline politely, or make an exception.

The one across the city.

An address past your patch is turned away before it reaches the day, and the owner leaves a request instead of a booking you would have to undo.

Booked at the length the dog needs.

Each size and coat is its own service with its own price and its own hours. Extras add both money and minutes, and the total is priced on our side, never trusted from the browser.

The dog turns up with its own history.

Six to eight weeks later the same dog is back, and the last groom is right there: what you took it to, what the coat did, and how it handled the dryer. Set the six or eight-week rhythm once and the visits build out ahead of you; the history is what tells you where to take the coat this time.

Pro

Settled before you load the van.

Cash and transfers go onto the groom for nothing at all. The card is the only part of the money that asks anything of the plan.

  • Cash on the record, free

    Write what the owner handed over against the booking with the date it was paid, on the Free plan, and the groom quietly leaves the outstanding column.

  • A link, rather than a chase

    Send a payment request against the groom and it settles with no account and no app at the other end. The money arrives in your account, not ours.

  • Cards come with Pro

    Take the card at the van door or on your booking page. Splitting a long coat-recovery job into stages with their own due dates is Pro as well.

One app for the whole job

Everything you need to run your mobile dog grooming business.

Scheduling

The whole day on one board, the grooms behind an overrunning coat dragged down together, and open gaps scored on the driving they add.

Bookings

Every groom in one list with the dog it belongs to, the hours it needs, its priced lines and whether the money for it has arrived.

Online booking

A page of your own, where an owner picks the size and coat, sees the real length and price, and takes a window the van can actually keep.

Inbox

The owner asking about a matted rescue arrives as a request card to accept or decline in the thread, rather than a call missed mid-groom.

Estimates

The tidy, the careful de-mat and the clip-off on one document, sent as a link, accepted by the owner typing their own name.

Customers

Each dog holds a record under its owner, with the breed, the coat and the notes from the last groom sitting exactly where you left them.

Territories

Claim the areas the van genuinely works, so a booking from an hour away never lands between two grooms on the same afternoon.

Team

A second van gets hours and services of its own, so only a groomer who does hand work is offered a hand-stripping appointment.

Payments

Cash and transfers written onto the groom by hand cost nothing, or send a link once the bow goes on. Cards come with Pro.

Common questions.

Yes, by listing each as its own service with its own price and duration. Extras such as a deshed or a nail tidy are option groups that add both money and minutes, priced on your page as the owner selects them.

A de-matting line goes on the booking at its own rate and its own hours, so the total and the finish time move together. The grooms behind it can then be dragged down the board and committed at once.

It can. A standing arrangement is a unit and a count, so six weeks is simply six of them and eight is eight. It sits on the Free plan, the visits appear ahead of the diary, and moving one groom re-anchors the pattern rather than ending it.

Yes. Each dog is a subject on its owner with a record of its own, and notes and photographs attach to the record feed. They remain internal, so the note about the clipper phobia is never shown to the owner.

Once the reminders are switched on. Every notification ships off until it is enabled, after which a booking reminder goes out by email before the visit, alongside the arrival window on the booking.

Yes. The Free plan carries a monthly booking allowance with no card required, and cash and bank transfer recorded by hand cost nothing at all. Taking a card is the part that needs Pro.
