cost models, one per trade we cover
Each one answers a question owners ask us over and over, with the method and every exclusion stated on the page.
What pet businesses actually charge for grooming, daycare, boarding, walking and training. Published prices only, one frozen service unit per trade, so a groom in Sydney is compared against the same groom in Leeds.
468 businesses across 5 countries, collected 10 August 2026
The price you need to charge, worked out from your rent, your wages, the consumables per job and the kit you will have to replace. Your target pay sits on top. No recommended price and no market average baked in.
9 calculators, one per trade
Every guide tells you to check with your local council. This one names the permit, shows the published fee where the council publishes one, and links you straight to the council's own page.
539 councils, 205 of them requiring a permit or registration
How many pets your day can actually hold, and whether one more person or one more table, pen, run or van would add any. Presets for grooming, daycare, boarding and mobile.
Four presets, every formula named, no email address asked for
What a year of bookings that never arrived costs you, late cancellations included, and what the gap is worth if every booking held a card.
Seven inputs, every formula named, no email address asked for
Most of these price a decision you have to make. This one prices a loss you are already carrying: the clients who quietly stopped booking, and what a year of their visits was worth.
Four inputs, every formula named, no email address asked for
A permit condition can decide how many dogs you take, whether you can trade from home and how long the approval takes. Find that out before you sign a lease, not after.
The calculators produce one number: the minimum a job has to earn before the business pays you. It is built on your costs, so nobody else can hand it to you.
The price index says what published businesses charge. Put it beside your floor. If the market rate sits under it, charging the market rate anyway is how a full book still feels broke.
Writing your terms as well? The express policy builder drafts your T&Cs, cancellation policy and waivers for your trade.
These came out of questions our customers asked us. The software they came from runs the bookings, payments and records for Australian pet businesses.
