What it really isGroomsoft — cloud pet-grooming business management software for salons and mobile groomers.

Our takeGroomsoft is built only for pet groomers.

It covers appointments, a waiting list, customer and pet profiles with photos and vaccination alerts, payments, online booking, reminders, release forms, expenses and a time clock. Grooming shops pay $29.95 a month and mobile groomers $39.90 a month, which adds route optimization and mileage tracking. There is no free plan, but the 30-day demo needs no credit card.

Why we rate itFew verticals are as underserved by software as pet grooming.

Groomsoft fills that gap with purpose-built features — pet vaccination tracking, grooming notes with photos, mobile route maps — at a price that won't scare off a solo groomer. The 30-day no-credit-card trial lowers commitment risk significantly.

The catchText messages beyond the one-time free pack are paid packs, and every message sent or received is deducted.

We found few published integrations beyond Google Calendar sync and built-in payments.

Best / not good for

Best for

Small pet grooming salons wanting flat-rate, unlimited-user pricing
Mobile groomers needing route optimization and 'on my way' notifications
Independent groomers transitioning from paper/spreadsheet scheduling

Not good for

Multi-location chains that need enterprise reporting
Businesses that need a long list of third-party integrations
Pet businesses other than grooming, such as vets or kennels

Trade-offs

Friction report

Trade-offs to know before signing up.

Time to value
Fast: 30-day free trial requires no credit card; free data import assistance speeds migration from other systems.
Scale breakpoint
SMS packs are the main extra cost as reminder volume grows; multi-location reporting needs were not verified.
Walled garden
Low: customer data is exportable; no proprietary lock-in beyond the recurring subscription.

Still a fit?

If none of these block you, try it on the official site.
