Pet grooming software pricing: what it really costs in 2026

Pricing last verified: August 12, 2026

Why June stands out at $79 per month

June is not a lightweight scheduler. It connects the complete client and pet journey, from the first booking through checkout and follow-up, in one fast system built specifically for grooming teams.

Pet grooming software monthly prices

The cheapest published subscription is not automatically the best value. Check how many people, texts, payment workflows, and core features the advertised tier actually includes. June is deliberately easy to price because there is no upgrade ladder: one plan includes unlimited staff and every shipped feature.

SMS and email allowances

Messaging is where a cheap base plan can become expensive. Compare segments, not just messages: a long SMS or one containing certain characters can consume more than one credit.

June includes 1,200 SMS segments and 5,000 emails monthly. Overage is published at $0.009 per SMS segment and $0.002 per email, so a busy shop can model the bill without buying opaque credit packs.

Trials, contracts, setup, and migration

Subscription price is only part of switching cost. June includes a 14-day trial, no contract, no setup fee, and free white-glove migration. That combination lets a shop test its real workflow without paying to rebuild its client and pet records first.

Payments, Square, mobile apps, and business fit

Payment flexibility materially changes value. June supports a paired Square Terminal for in-person checkoutand the shop’s own Stripe account for online deposits, card on file, and no-show fees. June adds zero payment markup, so the software subscription does not hide another revenue stream inside every sale.

Platform	Payments	Square compatibility	Mobile	Daycare / boarding
June	Checkout, online-booking deposits, card on file for no-show fees, and invoices	Yes, through a paired supported Square Terminal	Desktop, tablet, and mobile web; native apps are on the public roadmap	Purpose-built for grooming today; daycare and boarding modules are not live
MoeGo	MoeGo Pay supports terminals, card on file, prepayment, and online invoices	External Square payments can be recorded manually, but they do not sync automatically	iOS and Android apps	Yes; dedicated boarding and daycare offerings
DaySmart Pet	Integrated DaySmart Payments, online deposits, stored cards, and no-show protection	No Square integration is listed on the current official integration page	Yes	Yes; separate grooming, daycare, and boarding workflows are promoted
Gingr	Integrated payments, cards on file, deposits, prepayments, and tips	No Square integration is listed on the current pricing page	Yes, including a native pet-parent app	Yes; Play and Stay are purpose-built for daycare and boarding

What does grooming software really cost?

For a grooming-only business, the public base prices in this report run from $29.95/month to $109/month before annual discounts, custom plans, message overages, payment-processing fees, or add-ons. Savvy Pet Spa publishes in GBP, while PetExec does not publish a price.

A useful monthly-cost estimate is: subscription + extra users + SMS usage + required add-ons + payment-processing difference. Run that calculation at your busy-season volume, not an average quiet month.

That is where June becomes especially persuasive. Unlimited staff, generous messaging, every shipped feature, payment choice, and free migration are already inside one public price. The shop can grow without repeatedly buying back access to its own operation.

How to choose from this report

1. Remove products that do not fit your operating model.
2. Choose the real tier for your staff count and messaging needs.
3. Ask for written payment, setup, migration, and cancellation terms.
4. Test one complete day: booking, check-in, notes, checkout, and reporting.
5. Export sample data before committing, so you know you can leave later.

June is moving fast, on purpose

June is a newer product, but that is an advantage when you want modern software that keeps improving. Square Terminal sync shipped in July. Google Calendar sync followed in early August. On August 8, June shipped a third automatic reminder plus online deposits, card on file, and no-show fee workflows.

Native mobile apps, two-way texting, and mobile-grooming tools are on the public roadmap, alongside 23 more planned features. Roadmap items are never presented as live before they ship, but the recent release pace shows how quickly the product is expanding. Founding shops also get founder-led support and a direct voice in what comes next.

How this pricing report was built

Every figure came from an official vendor pricing, product, or help page checked on August 12, 2026. Annual-billing rates are labeled. Prices that depend on a payment product are labeled. If a vendor does not publish a figure, it says Not publicly listed.

The tables are factual; the value judgment is editorial and disclosed. I built June and believe it is the best overall choice for most grooming shops because of what the single plan includes.
