Your grooming menu in Waterford, and a feed that shows it to Ferrybank and Ballybeg
Switch on a full groom, a bath and brush and a nails-only session, price each by dog size, and add cats if you groom them. Every groom you post then reaches owners near Dunmore Road or Lismore Park early.
Grooming has its own review on Petme: groomers in Waterford apply from the app once their sitter profile is approved.
Why Waterford owners see your grooms before anyone else does
The Petme home feed starts with posts from people close to the viewer. For a groomer in Waterford that means owners in Kilcohan or Newtown meet your work early, and can follow you to see what you post next.
Post the before and after
Share photos and short videos of the pets you groom in Waterford: the same pet before and after, as in your application. Owners can like and comment on each post.
A feed that starts close to home
Petme opens on posts from people near the viewer. A groom you share from Ballybeg reaches your part of Waterford before it reaches anyone farther out.
Followers can message you
Owners who follow you in Waterford see each new groom you post and can message you in the app with questions about their dog.
At your place or theirs, across Waterford
Each session in Waterford 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 Waterford.
At your place
Owners in Waterford 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 Dunmore Road chooses how much of Waterford 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.

Made for professional groomers in Waterford
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.
