Essential Clauses for Pet Groomers

Protect your grooming business from liability and payment issues. Copy and paste these into the "Notes" section of your invoice.

Pet Health and Behavior Disclosure

Click text to select

"The pet owner confirms that their pet is current on vaccinations (Rabies, DHPP/FVRCP) and has disclosed any known health conditions, allergies, or behavioral issues. The groomer reserves the right to refuse service or modify the grooming plan if the pet shows signs of aggression, illness, or extreme stress. Any pre-existing skin conditions or injuries will be documented before grooming begins."

Matting and Coat Condition Policy

Click text to select

"Severely matted coats may require shaving for the pet's comfort and safety. A de-matting surcharge of $[Amount] per 15 minutes will apply if the coat requires more than standard brushing. The groomer will contact the owner before proceeding with any shave-down and will document the coat condition with photos. The groomer is not liable for skin irritation resulting from matting removal."

Pet Grooming Invoicing: A 2026 Guide

Professional invoicing helps pet grooming businesses track revenue, manage client relationships, and maintain clear records for tax purposes.

Breed-Based Pricing on Invoices

The industry standard is to price grooming by breed size category rather than time spent. Your invoice should clearly state the pet name, breed, and size category alongside the service price. For mixed breeds, classify by weight: Small (under 25 lbs), Medium (25-50 lbs), Large (50-90 lbs), Giant (90+ lbs). This eliminates guesswork and price disputes.

Add-On Services and Upselling

List add-on services as individual line items to increase transparency and average ticket value. Common add-ons include teeth brushing, ear cleaning, de-shedding treatments, flea and tick baths, nail grinding (vs. clipping), and cologne spritz. When clients see itemized add-ons, they understand the value and are more likely to accept them for future visits.

Building Recurring Revenue with Packages

Prepaid grooming packages create predictable income and client loyalty:

  • Offer packages of 4 or 6 sessions at a 10-15% discount.
  • Invoice the full package amount at purchase.
  • Provide a receipt for each redeemed session showing the remaining balance.

Pet Grooming Billing Methods

Per-Visit Invoice

Bill for each grooming appointment with the pet name, breed, services performed, and add-ons. The standard billing method for walk-in and appointment-based grooming.

Grooming Package Invoice

Sell prepaid bundles of grooming sessions (e.g., 4 full grooms at 10% off). Invoice the full amount at purchase and provide session receipts at each visit.

Mobile Grooming Invoice

On-location grooming billing with a service call fee plus standard grooming rates. Include the service address and any fuel surcharges as separate line items.

Multi-Pet Invoice

Bill for multiple pets from the same household on one invoice. List each pet individually with their services and apply any multi-pet discounts as a separate line item.

Frequently Asked Questions

How should I price grooming services on an invoice? +

Price by breed size category (small, medium, large, giant) rather than by time spent. List the base grooming package (bath, dry, brush, nail trim) as the main line item, then add specialty services (de-matting, teeth brushing, flea treatment) as separate add-on line items. This approach is industry standard and prevents disputes over time-based billing.

Should I charge extra for matted or neglected coats? +

Yes. De-matting is labor-intensive and can double grooming time. List it as a separate line item with a clear description (e.g., 'Severe Matting Surcharge - Additional 45 min de-matting required'). Many groomers inform clients of this charge before starting work and include the surcharge policy in their service agreement.

How do I invoice for mobile pet grooming? +

For mobile grooming, include a travel or service call fee as a separate line item, then list grooming services at your standard rates. The travel fee can be flat-rate or distance-based. Note the service address on the invoice. Mobile grooming typically commands 20-40% higher rates than salon-based grooming due to the convenience factor.

Can I sell retail products and include them on the grooming invoice? +

Yes. List retail products (shampoos, conditioners, brushes, treats) as separate line items from services. Many jurisdictions tax products and services at different rates, so keeping them separate ensures accurate tax calculation. Include the product name, quantity, and unit price.

How should I handle billing for multiple pets from the same owner? +

List each pet by name with their individual grooming services on the same invoice. Apply any multi-pet discounts as a separate line item. This gives the owner a clear breakdown per pet while showing the discount value. Example: 'Buddy (Golden Retriever) - Full Groom: $75' and 'Max (Poodle) - Full Groom: $65, Multi-Pet Discount: -$10.'
