Calgary dog owners near you can follow your grooming, from Beltline to Bridgeland
Your best marketing in Calgary is the work itself. Share before-and-after photos whether you groom in Beltline or Mission, and the owners nearby who like them can comment, follow you and message you in the app. Grooming is open to approved sitters with 6+ months of paid grooming.
In Calgary, grooming on Petme starts with an approved sitter profile and continues with a separate grooming application in the app.
Getting dog grooming clients in Calgary by showing the work
You will have 3 to 6 before-and-after pairs ready from the application, so you start with a small portfolio. Post it on Petme once you are approved, and the owners nearby, whether that means Marda Loop or Kensington, see it early, follow you and reach your profile.
Every session can be a post
When a groom in Calgary is done, post it with a short caption about the coat or the cut, so owners know what you do well.
Local before distant
Owners in Calgary scroll a home feed that puts posts from people around them first, and that includes the grooms you post.
Followers can message you
Owners who follow you in Calgary see each new groom you post and can message you in the app with questions about their dog.
At your place or theirs, across Calgary
Each session in Calgary happens where you say: at your own place, at the owner's home within the radius you set, or both, with the owner choosing on each request. A short radius keeps you close to home; a longer one covers more of Calgary.
At your place
Owners in Calgary bring their pet to you. Your address is not shown on the request; you share it with the owner in the app chat.
At the owner's home
You travel with your kit inside a radius of 3, 5, 10 or 20 km from home, so a groomer based near Kensington chooses how much of Calgary to cover.
Both
Offer both and your profile shows both options. Prices stay per session and dog size either way, and a custom offer adjusts one before payment.
Three sessions, two extras, every price yours
Petme sets no grooming rate in Calgary. Switch on the sessions you offer, price each one per dog size, add a price for cats if you groom them, and choose whether the extras cost anything.

Made for professional groomers in Calgary
Prices you set
Each session carries your own price per dog size. If a coat needs more work than the request suggested, you send a custom offer before the owner pays.
Hours you open
No shifts and no rota. Requests can only use the start times you open in the app, so grooming fits around a salon job, studies or other sitting work.
A reviewed standard
Every Petme groomer is an approved sitter who also passed the grooming review: paid experience, proof and before-and-after work.
