Free Invoice Template for Pet Groomers
A full groom on a cooperative poodle and the same service on a matted doodle that hasn't seen a brush in six months are not the same job. Price by breed size and coat condition, list de-matting and add-ons as their own lines, and owners stop being surprised at pickup.

Billing tips for pet groomers
- Quote by breed size and coat condition at check-in, not over the phone — the words 'starting at' on your price list are what keep a matted double coat from becoming free labor.
- Bill de-matting by time or severity as its own line; folding an extra hour of careful work into the base groom price trains owners to skip brushing between visits.
- Put your no-show and late-pickup fees on the invoice footer — groomers sell appointment slots and kennel space, and both are gone whether the dog arrives or not.
Pet groomer invoicing FAQ
What should a pet groomer invoice include?
A pet groomer invoice commonly includes your business and client details, an invoice number, issue and due dates, itemized services, applicable tax or discounts, the amount due and agreed payment terms. This template provides fields for those basics, but local and client-specific requirements can vary.
Can I change the sample line items in the pet groomer template?
Yes. The pre-filled line items are editable starter examples for pet groomers. Change the descriptions, quantities and rates, add or remove rows, and the totals recalculate automatically.
When should pet groomers send an invoice — before or after the work?
It depends on the agreement. You can invoice on delivery, at agreed milestones or on a recurring schedule. For a larger or new-client project, a deposit and balance schedule can be agreed in writing before work starts.
Do pet groomers need to charge tax on invoices?
That depends on where you are registered, what you sell and the rules that apply to you. If tax applies, enter the appropriate rate so it appears separately in the totals. If you are unsure, check official local guidance or ask a qualified adviser; the template supports both taxed and tax-free invoices.
What can I do if a client doesn't pay my pet groomer invoice on time?
Start with a polite reminder that includes the invoice and asks when payment is expected. If it remains unpaid, follow the escalation steps, late-fee terms and remedies already agreed in your contract, while checking any rules that apply in your location.
