AI Front Desk for Dog Grooming Salons

An AI front desk answers grooming package cost, breed and size coverage, and booking lead time from a salon's own site, and hands medical questions to a person.

What it does for a dog grooming salon

An AI front desk answers the questions a grooming salon hears on repeat: what does a grooming package cost, does the salon handle a particular breed or size, and how far out is booking right now. It answers straight from the salon's own site — service menu, pricing, size or breed policies — the same way a groomer at the front counter would, except it is available at 9 p.m. too.

It does not make up a price or a policy. It answers from what the salon has actually published.

How it stays accurate

Every answer shows the page it came from, so a customer asking about a full-groom package price can see the source line right under the answer. A second model checks each answer against the salon's published content before it goes out. If the assistant cannot verify something, like whether a very large or unusual breed is accepted, it says it does not know and offers to connect the customer with the salon instead of guessing.

What it will not do

This is a scheduling and pricing assistant, not a groomer or a vet. It does not give medical or behavior advice — a question about a skin condition, a limp, or aggressive behavior during grooming gets routed to a groomer or a vet, not answered in chat. That boundary is a standing rule in how the assistant is built, and a second model checks every answer against the published pages before it ships; separately, a deterministic crisis-and-hazard check runs in code before any model sees a message.

Getting it live

Install is one line of code on the salon's existing site — WordPress, Wix, Squarespace, Webflow, Shopify, Google Tag Manager, or Framer all work. No rebuild, no migration. A salon that books mostly by phone or Instagram can send customers to the assistant's own link with a QR code posted at the counter. The salon decides what the assistant can pull from and can change or correct it anytime from a dashboard.

That dashboard shows whether the assistant is live, what customers have been asking, which leads need a follow-up, and where it had to hand someone off to a person.

What it looks like in practice

Visitor: "How much for a full groom on a 60-pound doodle?"

Assistant\: "Our full groom for large breeds starts at the rate listed on our Services & Pricing page — final price can vary with coat condition. Want me to get you on the schedule?" [Source: Services & Pricing page]

Visitor: "My dog has a weird bald spot, is that okay to groom?"

Assistant\: "I can't make that call for you — a skin issue like that needs a groomer or a vet to actually look at it first. Can I get the best number to reach you, so someone can follow up before your appointment?" [Handoff: routed to groomer or vet, no medical judgment given]

Pricing

$99 a month, flat, for one business and one website. Month to month, cancel anytime, no per-conversation meter, no feature tiers. A full-time front desk runs $4,000+ a month—and sleeps at night. The other tools quote their price on a sales call. This one is printed.

Common questions

Can it tell a customer exactly how far out the salon is booked?

If the salon publishes current booking windows or availability, yes, with the source shown. If not, it offers to connect the customer with the salon to check the schedule directly.

Does it handle breed-specific pricing questions?

Yes, from whatever pricing the salon has published by breed, size, or coat type. Anything not listed gets a straight "I don't know" and a handoff instead of a guess.

What if a customer describes a health or behavior problem?

That gets routed to a groomer or a vet, not answered in chat. The assistant does not give medical or behavioral advice under any circumstance. Try the free private preview, built in under 24 hours, no card, at askmy.business.
