Scissors on a poodle, phone buzzing: the owner calls the salon next door.
A groomer has both hands full — and a dog between them. Calls land mid-groom: bookings, price questions, matted-coat emergencies. Owners call two or three salons and stick with the first that answers. Every client captured comes back every 6–8 weeks, for years.

FAQ
Pet Groomers: your questions
Does it know breed differences?
It captures breed, size and coat condition and hands them to you — you set duration and price per your grid. Tricky cases (anxious dog, heavily matted coat) get flagged before the appointment.
A nervous owner dropping off their dog — does it work?
First contact reassures: instant reply, professional questions, confirmed slot. The AI introduces itself as your salon's assistant and transfers any question that deserves your judgment.
We have one room, no receptionist — who answers?
Nobody has to: call forwarding routes to Signal, the text goes out in 10 seconds and AI fills the schedule. You check new bookings between two dogs.
Does it handle cats too?
Yes — you configure your feline services and durations; AI routes requests to the right slots. Cat owners are often the hardest to reach: that's where the text makes the difference.
How many extra appointments per month?
On 20 missed calls and a 28% close rate, the estimate gives 5–6 recovered appointments per month — and every new client returns every 6–8 weeks. The real value counts by the year.
