GroomSome is the app for dog grooming salons: your diary, every client and their dogs, invoices and reminders in one place, on your iPhone and iPad and in the browser at the desk. Open it in the morning and you see who is coming, what each dog needs and how long you have. The notes that matter are in red. Last visit's photos are one tap away. The invoice is done before the owner has the lead back on. Every dog has a story. Breed, notes, history and photos on one screen per dog. Mark a note as important and the whole salon sees it in red. Every previous visit with its treatments, price and photos sits underneath, and the owner and the vet are one tap away. Your schedule, your rules. Day, week and month for the whole team, filtered by groomer with a tap. Connect Google Calendar or Outlook and your other appointments show up in the same diary. Your clients book themselves in. Share your booking link on your website or Instagram. Clients pick a time from the services and hours you set, without creating an account, and the appointment lands in your diary. No phone interruptions mid-groom. Fewer no-shows. Reminders by email or SMS, in your client's language, at the time you choose. Write the message once and GroomSome sends it. The paperwork part, made painless. Create the invoice in a few taps. See what is paid, what is outstanding and how last month went. Export to CSV, Excel, UBL or PDF, whatever your accountant needs. Know what is on your shelf. Shampoos, brushes and supplies, with article number and supplier per product. Your dashboard warns you before stock runs out. Moving from paper or another app. Photograph a paper client card and GroomSome types it up for you. Or import your clients from an Excel or CSV file. Either way, you work from the app the same day. Built for teams too. Add groomers, give them roles, and everyone works from the same diary and the same client cards. Your first user is always included. Your data, locked down. Two-factor sign-in on every account, Face ID or fingerprint on your phone, encrypted data hosted in the EU. Export or delete everything whenever you want. It is your data. No tiers, no tricks. Pick the modules you need: clients and dogs, appointments, invoicing, products, reminders. Switch them on or off whenever you like. Whether you are at your grooming table, on the road or on the couch planning tomorrow, GroomSome is there.
