The pet groomers stack

Six instruments, calibrated.

UK pet groomers — breed-aware booking, per-pet history, photo logs, retail attach.

01 · Per-pet record + photos

Bella's coat history, on the table.

Per-pet profile with breed, last cut, photo log, behaviour notes, allergies. The new groomer doesn't have to ask. Built on Pawfect, custom UI, or both.

  • Per-pet history + photos
  • Breed + coat-type log
  • Behaviour + allergy flags
  • Pawfect-friendly
02 · Breed-aware slot times

Doodles get 90 minutes. Chihuahuas don't.

Booking durations that match the breed and coat condition, not a default 60 minutes. The diary stops over-running, the next owner stops waiting.

  • Per-breed slot duration
  • Coat-condition modifier
  • Per-station capacity
  • Drop-off window control
03 · Vaccination gating

Compliance checked at booking, not the door.

Vaccination status gates the booking — owner uploads at booking, reminders sent before lapse. The awkward conversation at check-in disappears.

  • Owner-upload at booking
  • Pre-lapse reminder
  • Vet-record import
  • Hard or soft gate
04 · Retail attach

Shampoo, brushes, treats — on the bill.

Per-pet recommendations driven by coat type and last service, attached to the post-groom invoice or auto-shipped. Margin where most salons leave it.

  • Per-pet recommendations
  • Post-groom upsell
  • Auto-replenish flow
  • Stripe + Shopify-friendly
05 · Reviews

The post-groom photo that gets the five-star.

Auto-prompted post-groom photo, owner shares to Instagram + Google, review request times to the moment of delight. By design, not by luck.

  • Auto-prompt photo upload
  • Review request timing
  • Google + Trustpilot routing
  • Social-share template
06 · BrainBase

Breed cuts, product notes, behaviour SOPs — indexed.

Breed-specific cut notes, product mix, allergic-reaction protocols, new-starter training — searchable from the table. Senior groomer stops getting interrupted.

  • Breed cut library
  • Product + supplier notes
  • Behaviour SOPs
  • New-starter training
Sample engagement

The 2-groomer salon that cut its rebook gap by a third.

Two groomers. 90 dogs a week. Average rebook gap at 11.4 weeks.

A grooming salon ran on a paper diary, vaccination dates on a wall chart, no per-pet history beyond the owner's memory. Rebook gap drifting to 11.4 weeks because reminders were ad hoc. Two-week build: per-pet record with photo log, breed-aware booking, automated rebook prompt timed to coat-growth profile, retail attach. Six months in: rebook gap from 11.4 to 7.8 weeks, retail attach up 19%, four hours back per week.

How we measure: Rebook gap = mean days between consecutive bookings per active pet, sampled across 218 pets pre-build vs 192 pets post-build, weighted by visit count; retail attach = retail revenue / service revenue, monthly rolling.
