Who this is for
Built for dog grooming businesses
UK independent dog groomers — single-room studios, mobile vans and home-studio operators, with breed-size pricing and a returning-client booking cycle.
Overview
A clearer way to manage your dog grooming paperwork
What we solve
Common UK admin problems we solve
- Intake and condition logs handled verbally or by message, with no written record when a coat issue or skin reaction surfaces after the appointment
- Breed-size pricing inconsistent across customers, with longer or matted coats taking the same hourly rate as straightforward jobs and no clear surcharge structure
- Add-on revenue (de-shed, de-mat, hand-stripping, paw and ear care) lost because the upsell isn't on the menu in front of the owner
- Self-assessment compiled each January from card statements, cash takings and rough notes, with MTD ITSA quarterly reporting from April 2026 now in scope
- GDPR privacy notice missing or generic, with no record of consent for before-and-after photos posted on social
- The same booking confirmations, late-collection nudges and review-request follow-ups rewritten from blank every time
FAQ
Frequently asked questions
- Are these dog grooming templates UK-specific?
- Yes. A4 print-ready, GBP, UK conventions for intake, consent, GDPR and salon-side paperwork. The condition log and consent forms reflect how UK dog groomers typically document coat state, behaviour and any pre-existing skin or eye issues.
- Do the templates cover mobile grooming as well as static studios?
- Yes. The pack covers both. Mobile-specific items (route check-in, water-and-waste handling, parking and access agreement) sit alongside the standard intake and aftercare forms used by static studios.
- Will the MTD compliance kit help with the April 2026 quarterly reporting changes?
- Yes. The kit is structured for clean quarterly bookkeeping — categorised income (full grooms, bath-and-tidy, add-ons, retail), categorised expenses (shampoo, products, mileage for mobile work), quarter-by-quarter summary. Submit through MTD-compatible software yourself, or hand the file to your accountant.
- Can the pricing calculator handle breed-size pricing and add-ons?
- Yes. The workbook is structured around breed-size bands (small / medium / large / giant), modifiers (matted, double-coated, de-shed, hand-stripping) and add-ons. You can model gross margin per groom and decide where new add-ons earn their slot.
- What file formats do I get?
- Most documents are PDFs with a fillable business-name header. Premium adds editable Word (.docx). The pricing calculator and MTD kit are Excel workbooks.
