Sound Familiar?
These are the problems that cost you time, money, and clients every week.
You are elbow-deep in a wet poodle when the phone rings — and that new client hangs up.
BookingMachine takes bookings 24/7. Clients pick a service, see the price, choose a slot, and pay a deposit — all while you work.
No-shows cost you $80+ in lost revenue every time a pet parent forgets.
Require a deposit at booking and send automated reminders. No-show rates drop by up to 70%.
You quote "$60–$120" over the phone and clients show up expecting the low end.
The pricing engine factors in breed, size, coat type, and add-ons — so the quote is accurate before they arrive.
Happy clients say they will leave a review but never do.
Auto-send a review request with a photo upload prompt right after pickup. Reviews roll in without you asking.

Dog Grooming Booking Software FAQ
Can I set different prices for different dog breeds?
Yes. BookingMachine lets you create pricing dimensions for breed size, coat type, and condition. You can also add multipliers for matting, de-shedding, and other factors.
Do clients pay a deposit when they book?
You choose: require a deposit (any percentage you set), full payment upfront, or no payment at booking. Most groomers require a 50% deposit to reduce no-shows.
Can I embed the booking widget on my website?
Absolutely. Add one line of code to your site and the widget appears. It works on WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, or any website.
What if I do not have a website?
BookingMachine gives you a free hosted microsite — a branded booking page you can share anywhere. You also get a direct booking link for social media bios.
How do automated reviews work?
After a booking is completed, BookingMachine automatically sends the client a review request via email. They can upload before-and-after photos and leave a star rating.
Is there a free plan?
Yes. The free plan includes unlimited bookings, your booking link, and a microsite. Paid plans add features like custom branding, deposits, and priority support.
Can I manage recurring grooming appointments?
