Where you groom

How grooming works on Petme in Elk Grove

You decide where each session happens in Elk Grove. Groom at your own place, travel to owners' homes around Old Town Elk Grove, Laguna and Laguna West, 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 Elk Grove.

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 Old Town Elk Grove to the Laguna Ridge subdivisions or stay near Old Town Elk Grove.

Dogs you will meet in Elk Grove

Owners in Elk Grove often keep Labrador Retriever, German Shepherd and French Bulldog. 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.

How do I advertise my dog grooming business in Elk Grove?

Can I do dog grooming part time in Elk Grove?
Yes. You open the start times you want in the app, a request can only use those times, and each request shows the service and how long it runs. That lets you groom around a salon job, studies or other Petme sitting in Elk Grove.
How do I become a dog groomer on Petme in Elk Grove?
Become a Petme sitter first: be 18 or over, have the Petme app and pass ID verification.
