Built for Solo Mobile Dog Groomers

Get paid before you pack up the grooming van.

Mobile groomers on NSuite Solo stop chasing payments and start collecting before they unload the van. Clients book their dog's next groom through your link — with pet notes already on file — your schedule fills without a single confirmation text, and every invoice is paid the moment you're done. Flat monthly price. No per-job fees. No juggling three apps for one dog.

The groom pays. Getting there and getting paid shouldn’t cost you.

You built your mobile grooming business on craft and word-of-mouth. But if your booking system is a text thread, your payment is a Venmo request you send from the driveway, and your pet notes live in your head — you’re absorbing costs the job didn’t create.

  • Loaded van, empty driveway.

    No-shows hit solo groomers on 10–20% of unconfirmed new bookings. A full grooming van drive to a house where nobody answers the door. You unload, reload, and lose the morning — plus the $85 you budgeted for that groom. Confirmed bookings with client contact on file eliminate ghost appointments.

  • The Venmo request that goes unread.

    After 2 hours hands-on with someone’s dog, chasing payment creates social friction. Send the invoice from the van before you’re done loading. Client pays by card on their phone. Paid before you pull out of the driveway.

  • “What were we doing with the coat?”

    No pet profile means starting from scratch every visit. A client CRM with notes per profile means coat type, temperament, last cut, and preferences are there before you ring the doorbell. Groomers who know the dog before they arrive deliver a different service.

  • Clients who were every-6-weeks are now every-10-weeks — and you can’t tell which ones.

    A solo groomer with 80 active clients drifting from a 5-week to a 7-week cycle loses ~160 appointments per year. Client list with last-appointment visibility shows who’s overdue before they call someone else.

From booking link to paid invoice — before you unload the van.

What a realistic day looks like for a solo mobile groomer running 6 appointments.

Monday night — after your last groom

Before: A new Instagram follower DMs: “Do you do doodles?” You reply, ask for their address, the dog’s name and size, discuss availability. Two days later you have a booking and no written record of the dog’s coat.

After: She found your booking link in your Instagram bio. She selected “Goldendoodle — Large,” picked Thursday 10am, entered her address, and left a note: “Teddy is nervous with the blow dryer. Prefers towel dry. No face trimming.” You woke up to a booking notification. The pet profile is already in the app.

Thursday morning — before you leave

Before: You’re texting client #2 to confirm, trying to remember if the poodle mix had a cut preference last time, and hoping nobody canceled overnight.

After: You open NSuite. Five confirmed appointments. Every card shows the address, the service, and the pet notes. You drive to the first house knowing what’s waiting for you.

Finishing the groom

Before: You mention the total. The client says she’ll Venmo you. By your second stop you’re wondering if it came through.

After: Groom done. You open the app, send the invoice — $85 for the full groom. She pays by card on her phone while you’re loading your bag. Paid before you leave the driveway.

Six weeks later

Before: You know some of your regulars are overdue, but they’re buried in your text history. You wait for them to reach out.

After: You see Mia’s dog hasn’t had an appointment in 44 days. Tap her profile. One text with your booking link. She books by evening.

Groomers who set up their booking link stop chasing payments that same week. The ones who haven’t are still texting addresses at 7am.

I was running 8 dogs a week on text bookings and a Venmo request I'd send when I got home. Three clients owed me money I'd been too uncomfortable to chase. When I set up NSuite, I started sending invoices from the van. The first day I used it, all three paid before I got home. I also stopped losing pet notes — every dog has a profile now and I pull it up before I ring the doorbell.

Illustrative example. Not an actual customer review.

My regulars had been texting me for two years. I put my booking link in my Instagram bio and sent one group text to all my active clients. Within the week, almost everyone had self-booked their next appointment. The thing that actually surprised me was the notes — clients started leaving coat notes and preferences when they booked.

Common Questions

Can clients choose their dog's size when they book — and does the price change automatically?
Yes. You set up your service with size tiers (Small, Medium, Large, XL) and each tier has its own price and duration. When a client books, they pick their dog's size and the right price is shown automatically. No more quoting by text.
Can I require a deposit before confirming the appointment?
Yes. Turn on deposit collection (Starter/Pro) and NSuite collects the deposit automatically the moment a client books and confirms — no manual invoice needed. Clients who've booked through your link, paid a deposit, and submitted their info are far less likely to ghost than a DM inquiry. You can also set a cancellation-fee policy that charges a card on file automatically if a client cancels inside your notice window.
Can clients leave notes about their dog when they book?
Yes. There's a notes field on every booking form. Clients can tell you the dog's name, coat preferences, whether they're reactive, what cut they want, whatever's relevant. It goes straight into the appointment details so you have it before you leave for the job.
Can I save notes about a dog that carry over from appointment to appointment?
Yes. Every client has a profile in the app where you can save notes about their dog — coat type, temperament, last service, preferences, anything you'd normally keep in your memory or a paper card. It's there every time you pull up that client.
What about the 4–6 week repeat cycle — can clients set a recurring appointment?
Not an automated recurring booking (yet). What groomers find works well: your booking link stays live, clients know to rebook every 6 weeks, and many will tap your link and book their next date before they leave the van. You can also send a quick text to clients with your link when they're getting close to overdue — it takes 10 seconds.
Does it work on my phone from the van?
Yes — entirely mobile. Send invoices, check pet notes, review your schedule, and add client notes all from your phone. A basic LTE signal is enough — your phone's data works fine.
What's on the free plan, and when would I upgrade?
The free plan covers up to 25 clients and includes invoicing, the client CRM with pet notes, and the appointment calendar. When you want clients to self-book through your link with size selection and Stripe card payments, that's when Starter at $19/month makes sense.
Is this the same as MoeGo or Gingr?
Those are built for grooming salons with staff — boarding management, multi-van routing, employee scheduling. If you're a solo operator running your own van, you don't need any of that. NSuite is built for independent service professionals: one operator, one booking link, invoicing and CRM that works from your phone. It costs $0–$49/month.

Your booking link is live. The pet notes are saved. The invoice is already paid.
