For independent dog grooming shops
GroomBench
Dog grooming software built around how real shops work.
The front desk, groomers, records, checkout, and rebooking — all in one desktop app that keeps your data on your own computer.
Built around the daily rhythm of a grooming shop
GroomBench keeps working when the Internet is down. No browser, no cloud account — just your shop on the front counter computer.
Client & pet records
Owner contacts, several textable numbers per household, safety warnings, preferences, photos, visit history, and search by name, phone, or email.
Grooming workflow
Check-in captures requests and warnings, then groomers work a focused queue: start, document, complete, and mark a pet ready for pickup.
Ready-for-pickup texting
Tell a client the moment their pet is finished, with editable wording, multi-recipient sends, and delivery history kept right on the pet’s record.
Checkout
Itemized services, adjustments, taxes, tips, and split payments — with four-week rebooking one click away.
Backups
One portable archive of your records and photos, created from a button in the app and restorable anytime. Nothing is ever deleted over nonpayment.
Managed support
GroomBench handles the technical side for you. Texting is set up for you, and when you call support, a single button lets them connect to your screen — no extra downloads, nothing to configure yourself.
What to expect during the release preview
- GroomBench runs fully on your computer. Your client records, photos, and backups stay on your machine.
- The installer is unsigned, so Windows shows a SmartScreen prompt on first run. Use More info → Run anyway.
- GroomBench is planned as a $30/month subscription that includes text messaging and managed support. Subscriptions are not activated yet — GroomBench is free during this release preview.
- Text messages currently run on a built-in test provider that records them without sending. Live text delivery is not activated yet and will be turned on when your shop goes live.
