Pet stores & grooming.

Retail supplies on the shelf and grooming services in the back room run on the same till. One customer record across both halves, one loyalty programme, one end-of-day count. Groomers earn commission and tips the same way salon stylists do.

What's in the Pet store starter

•8 categories: Dog food, Cat food, Small animal, Aquarium, Reptile, Toys & treats, Health, Grooming services.
•40 supply items + 5 grooming services (full groom, bath, nail trim, de-shed, teeth) ready to ring.
•Multi-pack variants per kibble brand — 12oz can, 5lb bag, 30lb bag — so cashiers pick the right unit at the till.
•Groomer commission from the salon pack carries over: senior 45%, junior 25%, plus retail upsell at 10%.

A real ticket

Maria the groomer rings up Buddy's visit:

GRM-FULL-DOG-L — $75 (Maria, 45%)
HLT-FLEA-DOG — $18.99 (retail, 10%)
TRT-DOG-BISC — $6.99 (retail, 10%)

Total $100.98 + $15 tip → Maria's sheet shows $33.75 service commission + $2.60 retail share + $15 tip. Buddy's loyalty card now has both visits on it.

Designed around groomers + regulars

•Service + retail on one ticket — bath in the back, takeaway treats at the till, single tender at the end.
•Pet-specific customer notes — “allergic to chicken,” “nervous around clippers,” “senior dog, gentle bath” — surface on the next visit.
•Subscription cadence hints — food re-buy at ~30 days, flea meds at ~90 days — feed the loyalty “due for a re-up” widget.
•Walk-in tracking via the existing customer record; grooming appointments live next to retail purchases.

Why not the cheap option?

vs Square + Vagaro (typical split)
Two systems, two customer databases, manual commission reconciliation every Friday. Loyalty points only accrue on the retail side; the grooming visit doesn't count.
vs PawLoyalty / Gingr (grooming-specific)
Strong on bookings + grooming notes. Retail side is thin or absent — most stores still run Square alongside.
vs Lightspeed Retail
Retail is solid; no native services / commission model. Grooming becomes a SKU you ring without a stylist link, breaking the commission report.

Moving from Square + Vagaro (the typical split)?

→Retail catalogue + customer list import from Square via CSV. Pet records (allergies, last-groom date, breed) capture as free-form notes on the customer record for V1.
→Groomer roster and commission rates configure at setup — uses the same model as the salon pack (Senior 45%, Junior 25%, retail share 10%).
→Subscription cadence hints (food re-buy at ~30 days, flea meds at ~90) feed the loyalty “due for a re-up” widget — no separate marketing tool needed.
→Booking calendar isn't in V1 — most stores keep Vagaro for that side and create the ticket here at check-in.

Frequently asked questions

Can I rent the same till to multiple groomers?: Yes. Each groomer logs in with their own account (or you tag them at line creation). Commission rolls up per groomer in the end-of-day report.
Pet-specific notes — allergies, temperament?: Free-form customer notes today (“Buddy is nervous around clippers, allergic to chicken, last groomed 2026-04-12”). A structured pet record with breed / age / vaccination fields lands in a future bump if real customers ask.
Subscription / reorder reminders?: Loyalty + the “due for a re-up” widget surface at the next visit. Subscription auto-charge isn't in V1; we surface the reminder, you ring the sale.
Multiple bag sizes per kibble brand — how does that work?: Today each pack ships them as separate SKUs (12oz can, 5lb bag, 30lb bag). A future variants refactor lets one item carry the three sizes as variants without changing the cashier story.
Does it work with my barcode scanner?: Any USB or Bluetooth keyboard-wedge scanner. Honeywell Voyager 1450G is the standard recommendation; if you already own a Datalogic / Zebra, plug it in.

Recommended hardware

•Front-desk till: iPad or laptop on the counter for both retail rings and grooming check-out.
•Receipt printer: Star TSP143IIIBI (Bluetooth).
•Barcode scanner: Honeywell Voyager 1450G (USB) for kibble bags + treat boxes.
•Card terminal: Stripe Reader M2 (BYO Stripe account).
•Groomer tablet (optional): small iPad in the grooming room for service-side ticket capture.
