Mobile dog grooming software
to manage bookings, pets & payments.

Why UK mobile dog groomers choose HiveSuite

Mobile dog grooming is a hands-on, relationship-driven business. Your clients trust you with their pets, rebook regularly, and expect a personal service. But between grooming sessions you are also quoting, invoicing, chasing payments, managing your diary, and planning routes - often from a phone wedged between a dryer and a dog. HiveSuite gives mobile dog groomers one platform to take online enquiries, store detailed pet records, manage recurring appointments, plan daily routes, send professional invoices, and collect card payments. Whether you are a sole trader working from a converted van or running a team of mobile groomers, HiveSuite keeps your business organised and professional.

HiveSuite is UK-built, priced in GBP including VAT, and designed for how UK service businesses actually work. No per-user pricing, no feature locks - every plan includes everything from day one.

Pet records, breed details, and grooming history

Every dog is different - coat type, temperament, health conditions, grooming preferences. HiveSuite lets you store detailed pet records against each client, including breed, coat condition, temperament notes, any medical concerns, and a full history of every groom. When you arrive at a booking you already know the dog, the owner's preferences, and exactly what was done last time. This is essential for delivering a safe, personalised service and building lasting client relationships.

For clients with multiple pets, each animal has its own record. Add photos, notes on behaviour, and details of any products used or reactions observed.

Recurring appointments for regular clients

Most mobile grooming clients book on a regular cycle - every six weeks, every eight weeks, monthly. HiveSuite lets you set up recurring appointments at any frequency. Each appointment auto-generates in your diary and an invoice sends automatically each cycle. No manual rebooking, no forgetting to follow up, no missed appointments. Your regular clients stay on schedule and you maintain a predictable income.

Online enquiries from your website

HiveSuite includes embeddable enquiry forms you can add to your website, Facebook page, or Instagram bio link. When a potential client fills in the form with their pet details and preferred service, HiveSuite creates a client record and draft quote automatically. You review the enquiry between appointments and send a professional quote - no manual data entry, no missed leads while you are mid-groom.

Planning your daily route

HivePlanner is a visual drag-and-drop calendar that lets you group bookings by area and plan efficient daily routes. Minimise drive time between appointments and fit more grooms into each working day. See your full week at a glance, spot gaps in the schedule, and rearrange bookings with a simple drag and drop. If a client cancels or reschedules, the gap is visible immediately so you can fill it.

Professional invoicing and card payments

Every HiveSuite invoice includes a Stripe payment link so clients can pay by card from their phone - at the van, at the door, or after you have left. No cash handling, no awkward payment conversations. For regular clients on recurring bookings, invoices send automatically each cycle. The invoice reminder board tracks every outstanding payment at a glance so you always know who to chase, and HiveAssist can draft follow-up reminders for you.

Quoting for grooming services

Build professional quotes with itemised line items - full groom, bath and tidy, nail clipping, de-matting, teeth cleaning, or any combination. HiveAssist, the built-in AI assistant, drafts quote line items from a short description of the work. Send the quote by email and the client accepts online with a single click. For new enquiries, quotes are drafted automatically from the information submitted through your enquiry form.

Managing a grooming team

If you run multiple groomers, HiveCrew is a lightweight mobile app your team members add to their home screen - no App Store download needed. Each groomer sees their assigned appointments, client addresses, pet details, and one-tap directions. Update job status in real time. Your team see only their own appointments - not financials, other client data, or business reports.

Business reporting with HiveIntel

HiveIntel is HiveSuite's built-in reporting and AI analytics tool. Ask questions in plain English - "what was my revenue last month", "which postcode area brings the most bookings", "how many new clients did I get this quarter" - and get instant answers from your own data as charts, tables, or dashboards. Track revenue trends, identify your busiest periods, and make informed decisions about pricing, coverage areas, and marketing spend.
