Made for how grooming shops actually run

Booking built around your groomers

Clients book online with no account, only into each groomer's own hours and drop-off times.

Every pet remembered

Cut preferences, handling notes, vaccine records with expiry warnings and full visit history.

Fewer no-shows

Your cancellation policy is shown and saved on every booking, with optional card deposits and missed-visit limits.

Texting with honest limits

Confirmations, reminders and pickup texts from monthly credits — never surprise overage charges.

Texting starts once your shop's carrier registration is approved.

Built by a groomer who understands the work

I own Snuggles Pet Spa, and I built Coatlog around the way a real grooming shop operates.

Coatlog started with the everyday work behind a grooming appointment: keeping schedules clear, remembering each pet, collecting deposits and keeping owners updated.

Common questions

How much does Coatlog cost?

$29 a month with 500 text credits each month. Eligible invited founding shops pay $24.95 a month while continuously subscribed and receive 250 monthly text credits — half the Standard allowance.

Can I bring my records from DaySmart, Groomsoft or another system?

Yes, if your current software can export them to a file. Coatlog's in-app Import tool accepts CSV, tab-delimited TXT and Excel files with client, pet and appointment records. You match your columns to Coatlog's fields and review a preview before anything is added. Appointments import when their service matches one set up in your shop. Coatlog doesn't connect directly to DaySmart or Groomsoft.

Do my clients need an account to book?

No. Clients open your booking page, look themselves up by phone number, pick a service and time, and they're done.
