Dublin grooming work where your before-and-afters reach Rathmines and Ranelagh first
On Petme you post your grooms the way you would on any social app, but the home feed puts people nearby first. Groom out of Drumcondra or Phibsborough and the owners around you see your work, follow you and open your profile.
In Dublin, grooming on Petme starts with an approved sitter profile and continues with a separate grooming application in the app.
How Dublin owners find a groomer they already follow
A dog owner in Ballsbridge opens Petme and sees posts from people near them before anything else. If one of those is your latest groom, they can like it, follow you and message you from your profile.
Post the before and after
Share photos and short videos of the pets you groom in Dublin: the same pet before and after, as in your application. Owners can like and comment on each post.
Local before distant
Owners in Dublin scroll a home feed that puts posts from people around them first, and that includes the grooms you post.
From a post to your profile
An owner who likes a post can follow you, open your profile and see the grooming menu you offer in Dublin.
Where you groom in Dublin
Each session in Dublin 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 Dublin.
At your place
Owners in Dublin 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 Rathmines chooses how much of Dublin 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 Dublin. 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.

What Dublin groomers get on Petme
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.
How to start grooming on Petme in Dublin
1. Become a Petme sitter
Download the Petme app, build your sitter profile with the Dublin areas you cover and pass ID verification. You need to be 18 or over.
2. Open the grooming application
Start it from the grooming tile in your dashboard. Add your paid grooming experience, where you worked and at least one proof: a certificate or diploma, an employer reference, or a website or social link.
3. Show your work
Upload 3 to 6 before-and-after pairs of pets you groomed: the same pet, a similar angle and no filters. Confirm the 3 declarations and send it.
