Billing tips for pet groomers

Explain de-matting charges

Owners are often surprised by a matting fee. A one-line note about the coat's condition — and a photo — turns a complaint into advice they'll thank you for.

Save your price list by size

Set up small, medium, large, and giant services as saved items, plus your add-ons. Every invoice is then a few taps, and your prices stay consistent.

Charge no-shows consistently

For a mobile groomer, a no-show costs the slot and the drive. Tell clients your policy when they book, and invoice it the same way every time.

Invoicing questions from pet groomers

What should a pet grooming invoice include?

A pet grooming invoice should include your business details, the owner's name, each pet's name and breed, the base service, add-ons, any de-matting or handling charges with a short explanation, travel or no-show fees, the total, the next appointment, and how to pay.

How should groomers charge for matted dogs?

Many groomers charge de-matting by time, for example per 15 minutes, on top of the base groom, and explain the charge on the invoice. Agree on it with the owner before you start, and attaching a photo of the coat avoids disputes.

Can I put more than one pet on the same invoice?

Yes. Add a line for each pet's service and include the pet's name in the description, so the owner can see who got what.

Do mobile groomers charge a travel fee?

Many do, either a flat mobile service fee or a charge based on distance. Show it as its own line so clients can see it separately from the grooming price.
