How grooming works on Petme in Washington DC
You decide where each session happens in Washington DC. Groom at your own place, travel to owners' homes around Dupont Circle, Georgetown and Capitol 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 Washington DC.
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 Dupont Circle to Capitol Hill or stay near Dupont Circle.
Dogs you will meet in Washington DC
Owners in Washington DC often keep French Bulldog, Goldendoodle and Labrador. 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.

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.
