Pet Grooming Software
Booking, cut notes, photo cards, payments — without the app shuffle.

Frequently asked questions
What does pet grooming software do?
It runs the salon: online booking, recurring appointments, breed cut/style notes, before-and-after photo cards, deposits, SMS reminders, tipping, and payouts. Chartling adds boarding, training, daycare, and (for clinics) the medical record.
How does Chartling compare to MoeGo or Pawfinity?
MoeGo and Pawfinity focus on grooming. Chartling does grooming plus boarding, training, daycare, and the medical chart on one record — so a dog being boarded can get a bath, vaccines verified, and a med dose logged without leaving the system.
Can clients book and pay online?
Yes. Each salon gets a public booking page with real availability, deposits via Stripe, and policy/contract signing before the appointment is confirmed.
