Dog grooming in Loughborough: open the sessions you want to offer
Grooming on Petme in Loughborough starts with being an approved sitter, then a separate grooming application with proof of paid work and 3 to 6 before-and-after pairs. After that, the menu and the prices are yours.
First you become an approved Petme sitter in Loughborough, then you send the grooming application from the app.
What Loughborough owners do after they see a groom
Post from wherever you groom, at your place or at an owner's home. People nearby in Loughborough see it first, and the ones who like it follow you.
Your grooms, in photos and video
A clip of a de-shedding session or a photo of a finished trim shows owners in Loughborough more than a price list does. Post them as you go.
A feed that starts close to home
Petme opens on posts from people near the viewer. A groom you share from Shelthorpe reaches your part of Loughborough before it reaches anyone farther out.
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 Loughborough.
Where you groom in Loughborough
Each session in Loughborough 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 Loughborough.
At your place
Owners in Loughborough 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 Dishley chooses how much of Loughborough 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 Loughborough. 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.

Your price per session, for each dog size and for cats

Nails only
A short nail session at a price you choose

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.
