Groomit In-Home Grooming

The Groomit In-Home Program connects independent groomers with clients who prefer grooming in the comfort of their own homes.

You bring your grooming skills and tools, Groomit’s app manages everything else.

How It Works

Groomit App Handles Everything

All bookings, payments, and client communication are
done through the Groomit app. You’ll receive
notifications for new requests, confirm them instantly,
and contact clients through the app if needed.

You Bring Your Tools

Arrive with your portable grooming kit — clippers, dryer, towels,
and shampoo — and deliver a salon-quality experience anywhere.

Client Provides the Space

The pet parent sets up a clean, well-lit area (bathroom, laundry
room, or kitchen) with access to power and water. You simply set
up, groom, and clean up.

Professional Standards

Each in-home service follows Groomit’s hygiene and safety
guidelines to ensure a professional experience every time.

Who It’s Good For

The in-home option is designed for independent groomers who want freedom, flexibility,
and extra income without the need for a van, full-time schedule, or heavy investment.

Flexible Schedules

Ideal for groomers who prefer limited engagements and want to work on their own time, perfect for part-time or side-income opportunities.

No Van, No Travel Hassle

Skip the cost and upkeep of a van. Focus purely on grooming, no driving, no maintenance, no logistics to manage.

Comfortable Setup

Best for professionals who are confident working in home environments while pet parents are present, bringing a calm, personal experience to every visit.

Low Overhead, High Freedom

Your only real costs are basic supplies like shampoo and towels. Stay independent, keep your earnings, and enjoy full control of your business.

Key Benefits

No Van or Upfront Costs

All you need are your grooming tools, no vehicle purchase,
maintenance, or financing required.

Total Flexibility

Work when and where you want. Set your own schedule and
service areas through the Groomit app.

Prepaid, Hassle-Free Appointments

Every booking is prepaid and managed in-app, so there’s no
chasing payments or handling cash.

Independent, Supported Business

You operate as your own business while Groomit handles
scheduling, payments, reviews, and technology, giving you
freedom with built-in support.

Things to Know

Client Demand & Setup Variety

In-home grooming requests are less frequent than
mobile services, but they appeal to clients who prefer
a personal, at-home experience. Each home setup is
different, so adaptability is key.

Space & Pet Considerations

Some spaces may be tight or challenging, especially for larger
dogs. Being comfortable working in varied environments ensures a
smooth, stress-free session for both you and the pet.
