About the template
What this pet groomer quote template covers and why it wins more clients
Pet groomer quotes lose work to chain salons because the chain prices a Labradoodle differently from a Bichon. Detailed quoting by breed and coat type signals expertise. The template uses breed-specific groom rates, de-shedding as its own line, nail clip and ear clean as extras, and mobile travel where applicable.
Aggressive-handling fee is itemised separately and waived if the dog is fine on the table. This protects you when an owner forgets to mention bite history, without surprising them on pickup.
What to include
Every pet groomers quote should have these lines
Use it as a checklist when you build your quote from scratch, or pull the QuoteGenio template that already has them.

Avoid these
Common mistakes on pet groomers quotes
The patterns that quietly lose jobs, get queried at payment time, or leave money on the table.
Mistake: Flat rate regardless of breed or coat
Better: Labradoodles take 3x the time of a Bichon. Quote breed-specific so the price matches the work.
Mistake: De-shedding bundled into the groom
Better: De-shedding is real product and 30+ minutes extra. Quote as its own line.
Mistake: Aggressive-handling fee not stated
Better: State it as a waivable line. Protects you on biters without surprising friendly-dog owners.
Mistake: Mobile travel hidden in the base rate
Better: State the radius and per-km surcharge. Lets customers outside the zone decide if they want to pay.
Mistake: No booking deposit for first-time clients
Better: 30% deposit reduces no-shows. State it clearly and waive for repeat clients.
Mistake: Vaccination requirement missing
Better: State 'all pets must be vaccinated within the last 12 months'. Protects your other clients and your own animals.
