Freelance dog grooming in Austin that starts with your photos
Home visits around South Congress and East Austin follow a radius you choose, from 3 to 20 km, and the grooms you post reach feeds in that same part of Austin first.
Grooming on Petme in Austin starts with an approved sitter profile, then a separate grooming application in the app.
Be easy to find for Austin pet owners
On Petme, groomers post their work the way they would on any social app: before-and-after photos, short videos, a caption. The difference is the home feed, which shows Austin owners nearby posts first.
Photos and videos of your work
A clip of a bath and brush or a photo of a finished trim from Austin tells an owner more about your grooming than a description.
Local owners see you early
Because Petme shows nearby posts first, the owners closest to your Austin base are the first to see your work.
One tap to your profile
From any post, an owner near South Congress reaches your profile and can send you a message in the app.
How grooming works on Petme in Austin
You decide where each session happens in Austin. Groom at your own place, travel to owners' homes around South Congress, East Austin and Hyde Park, or offer both and let the owner pick on each request.
At your place
Owners bring the pet to you. The address is not part of the request: it is shared in chat, the same way it works for drop-in visits in Austin.
At the owner's home
Travel to the pet with your kit. You set a home-visit radius of 3, 5, 10 or 20 km, whether you work the stretch from South Congress to East Austin or stay near South Congress.
Dogs you will meet in Austin
Owners in Austin often keep Australian Shepherd, Labrador and Goldendoodle. Price your full groom for each dog size, and send a custom offer before payment when a coat needs more work than the request suggested.
Choose your sessions, set every price
Petme sets no grooming rate in Austin. You switch on the sessions you offer, price each one per dog size, add a price for cats if you groom them, and choose your extras.

Built for professional groomers in Austin
You set every price
Each session carries your own price per dog size. If a pet needs more work than the request suggested, you send a custom offer before the owner pays.
Your hours, your days
There are no shifts. Owners pick from the start times you open, so grooming fits around a salon job, studies or your other Petme bookings.
A reviewed bar
Every Petme groomer is an approved sitter who also passed a grooming review: paid experience, proof and before-and-after work.
