Payment Processing for Pet Groomers

Appointment deposits to stop no-shows, tip-enabled checkout, and mobile readers for groom-on-the-go.

Challenges pet groomers face with payment processing

No-shows on appointments

Without a deposit, no-shows leave open chairs and lost revenue.

Tip handling

Groomers expect clean tip routing and reporting for payroll.

Recurring groom schedules

Many clients groom on a 4–6 week schedule — recurring billing keeps them booked.

Mobile groomers

Mobile rigs need a card reader in the truck, not a tethered terminal.

How Pay Solutions Hub helps

Deposits at booking

Capture a deposit when the appointment is set; charge or forfeit on no-show.

Tip prompts and per-employee reporting

Tips tracked per groomer for payroll.

Mobile readers for in-truck billing

Clover Go pairs with a phone for in-rig payment.

Clover POS

Clover Mini at the desk handles bookings, deposits, and walk-ups. Clover Go covers mobile groomers in the field.
