Pet Grooming Booking Request Form

Groomers schedule by breed and coat type, not just by date. The booking form needs to capture the dog's size, coat condition, and any biting history before the appointment slot is held.

Pet Grooming Booking Request Form — example splitforms template with submissions inbox
§ 01Why it mattersthe qualifying-fields argument

A groom on a 70-lb doodle takes 3 hours and costs $130; a maltese bath-and-tidy takes 45 minutes and costs $55. The shop can't book by clock alone — it books by breed, weight, and coat condition. The form captures all three on the way in, plus vaccination status (rabies / bordetella required by most shops) and temperament notes (history of biting / sedation needs / senior dog). Skip those fields and every booking call burns 10 minutes on intake. Mobile groomers especially need address and parking notes too — the truck won't fit on every street.

§ 03Three steps3 steps · ~60 seconds

Generate, embed, receive.

Three actions stand between you and your first lead. None of them require a backend, a database, or a CAPTCHA library.

STEP 01GENERATE

Capture pet and service details

Required: pet name, species, breed, weight, age, service requested (bath / full groom / de-shed / nail trim / sanitary). Optional: coat condition, last groom date, temperament notes.

Create your form
key=sk_live_••••••••
STEP 02EMBED

Verify vaccinations

Required checkbox confirming rabies and bordetella up to date — most jurisdictions require it and your insurance does too. Some shops ask for a vet-record upload (Pro file upload).

STEP 03RECEIVE

Confirm slot via SMS

Webhook to Twilio — the shop confirms or offers an alternate slot within the hour. Mobile groomers also confirm parking and gate-code details on the same thread.

§ 06FAQ4 answered

Things people ask before they ship.

Direct answers, no marketing fluff. Missing one? Email hello@splitforms.com.

01Do I really need to ask about temperament?
Yes. Aggressive or fear-biter dogs need a muzzle, a longer slot, and a senior groomer. A new client booking a doodle without disclosing a bite history is the #1 cause of groomer injuries — the form gives the shop a paper trail and a heads-up.
02Can I integrate with Gingr / Pawfinity / DaySmart?
Yes — webhook the JSON to Zapier and into your booking software. Lead lands as a future-dated appointment with breed, service, and contact info pre-filled, ready for confirmation.
03How do I handle no-shows on grooming?
Most shops charge a 50% no-show fee. Capture phone on the form and send a Twilio SMS reminder 24 hours out. For repeat no-show clients, a Stripe deposit link in the auto-responder protects the slot.
04Should I take a deposit on the form?
Most shops don't, but mobile groomers (whose drive-time is wasted on a no-show) increasingly do. Send a Stripe link in the auto-responder for a $25 deposit applied to the groom — collects on confirmation, not on form submit.
