Mobile dog grooming scheduling software
A mobile schedule has to account for the time spent grooming, driving and getting the van ready for the next dog. Use this sample day to see what your calendar needs to show.
Try a three-stop schedule
- 9:00 to 10:15. Book a 75-minute groom. Keep the parking instructions and pet handling notes with the visit so you can find them at the stop.
- 10:45 to noon. Allow 20 minutes to drive and 10 minutes to reset the van before the second groom.
- 1:00 onward. Block a lunch break and account for the drive to the afternoon stop. If an earlier groom runs long, check which later visit needs a time adjustment.
Use your own times in the trial. GroomCaptain keeps customer and pet records with appointments, and My Day shows the next stop and its details.
What to check during a trial
- Open the day on your phone and find the next address, the service and the pet’s notes.
- Move one appointment and see where the change leaves time for driving and breaks.
- Check which appointments still need confirmation before you leave.
Common questions
- Can I keep taking bookings by phone?
- Yes. Enter those appointments yourself and share an online booking link when you’re ready.
- Can I see my next stop on a phone?
- Yes. GroomCaptain supports mobile browsers, and its app adds device actions such as opening directions on supported phones.
