How grooming works on Petme in Des Moines
You decide where each session happens in Des Moines. Groom at your own place, travel to owners' homes around Downtown Des Moines, East Village and Sherman Hill, 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 Des Moines.
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 Downtown to Beaverdale or stay near Downtown Des Moines.
Dogs you will meet in Des Moines
Owners in Des Moines often keep Labrador Retriever, German Shepherd and Golden Retriever. 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 Des Moines. 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.

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.
