Learn more about pet grooming technology and how Aussie Pet Mobile is leading the way in innovation.
Bringing Your Pet Business into the Future
Before we take a closer look at pet grooming technology, let’s zoom out for a wider view of the business world. As rapidly as new innovations seem to roll out, keeping up with technology – let alone making it a part of your business – can feel overwhelming. It is, however, the best way to keep up with skyrocketing demand in the pet grooming industry. The U.S. pet grooming services market was valued at $2.06 billion for 2024, with a compound annual growth rate of 6.7% through 2030. To meet the needs of your community, embracing automation is key.
There are many AI-driven or otherwise smart tools you can leverage to improve operational efficiencies and keep your business ahead of the curve. We recommend starting small or, if you’re a franchise owner, asking your franchisor for guidance on which tools to start using first. Automating your business could look like:
- Customer relationship management (CRM) software that streamlines customer experiences and promotes brand loyalty
- Using AI assistants in your workflow software to analyze data and schedule recurring tasks
- Reputation management software that analyzes reviews and generates leads
- Reporting platforms that track the performance of your digital marketing efforts and help you target the right audiences
At Aussie Pet Mobile, we’re developing impactful scheduling tools that help us optimize routes and increase bookings, as well as additional AI platforms that will integrate feedback to make our world-class customer service even better. With these tools at hand, you’re able to simplify the administrative tasks that come with being a franchise owner and focus on making your franchise the best it can be.
A Closer Look at Pet Grooming Technology
Today’s pet parent is looking for much more than a bath and blowout. Instead, they’re seeking pet grooming businesses that prioritize the comfort, well-being, and safety of their dog or cat. Reputable pet groomers have taken note, and they’re meeting the moment by incorporating cutting-edge pet grooming tools.
- Pet grooming scheduling systems: These platforms help you protect customer data, schedule first-time and repeat appointments, manage your team, and much more.
- High-efficiency tubs: These are designed for thorough baths with minimal water. Paired with eco-friendly shampoos, they save resources and deliver a gentler, more soothing experience for pets.
- Adjustable grooming tables: With adjustable tables, groomers are able to keep pets of all sizes comfortable and safe.
- Quiet blow dryers: Traditional dryers can be noisy and time-consuming, causing stress to animals. Modern blow dryers are more efficient and much quieter. The result? Calmer, happier grooms!
Aussie Pet Mobile Leads the Pack
At Aussie Pet Mobile, we’re committed to providing grooming services with the right blend of skill, innovation, and pet safety. In our 100% cage-free environment, pets receive compassionate care that puts their wellness first. Our franchisees have access to top-notch tools and advanced technologies that set them apart from the competition, including:
- Environmentally friendly bathing systems: Keeping with the global interest in clean solutions for all areas of life, Aussie Pet Mobile employs bathing systems that are kind to both the environment and pets.
- Hydraulic grooming tables: These tables provide optimum height adjustment to help groomers work without strain, translating to quicker and more precise grooming sessions.
- High-quality shears and clippers: Our vans are equipped with shears and clippers that offer unmatched accuracy, allowing for meticulous grooming.
All grooms take place in Aussie Pet Mobile’s state-of-the-art grooming vans, which are fully stocked with pet-friendly and eco-friendly grooming equipment. Each mobile pet grooming unit is self-contained and custom designed with air conditioning, heat, electricity, and water. The vans are powered with lithium-ion batteries, eliminating the need for vehicle idling and generator power.
Incorporating Pet Grooming Technology at Your Franchise
Aussie Pet Mobile franchise owners receive in-depth training and support at every step of the franchising journey. As new tools or systems are introduced system-wide, we’ll provide expert training that helps you integrate them seamlessly. Through our ongoing education opportunities, we’ll help you understand each tool’s functionality and benefits, helping you leverage them for maximum success.
We also help you follow best practices regarding new tools and technology. As each tool is introduced, you’ll learn how to position it effectively. You want to be sure there’s still plenty of room for movement within your van – it’s not worth incorporating something new if it negatively impacts the groomer’s workspace. In order to keep your tools working their best for the long run, perform regular checks and follow a maintenance schedule.
The home office team stays updated on the dynamic world of pet grooming technology, and we’ll periodically recommend upgrades as more efficient tools become available. Of course, we also encourage you to keep an eye on innovations within the industry. If you find something you’d like to share with other franchisees, let us know!
