A dog arrives for a groom, and the owner wants to know the coat won’t get taken down too far and the handling won’t turn into a fight with the dryer or nail trim. The Dog Grooming Form gathers the intake details before the first session, so the groomer can spot coat risks, note stress points, and plan the handover without guessing. The questions sit on a plum page with green-teal accents under Lora headings, which keeps the tone steady and matter of fact while the details get specific.

The first block explains what the intake is for, then the form moves through contact details and the dog’s name, breed, and weight. Coat and comfort questions follow, including whether to keep the coat longer while working through mats, and whether the dog struggles with the dryer or may bite during nails. The last questions cover what the owner will bring, vaccine proof, a preferred first date, and whether a set pick-up time is needed... so the day runs to plan instead of by surprise.

  • Dog Grooming Form Intro text that frames the intake and sets expectations for what happens after the form is sent.
  • Your name Required owner name field so the intake stays tied to the right household.
  • Your dog's name, breed and weight Required dog details field that gives the starting point for coat approach and handling.
  • Keep coat longer and remove mats? Required coat preference question with options for longer coat, a shorter clip, or asking for advice.
  • Do you need a set pick-up time? Required pick-up timing question that captures whether timing is fixed or flexible.

In Plutio, this runs as one of your forms, so owners fill it in once and the answers land back with you as a single response you can review before confirming next steps.

We went from spending hours on every proposal to creating fully customized ones in under 5 minutes. That's not an exaggeration - we timed it.
