Common Challenges

Running a Grooming Salon Isn’t Simple

You love the work, but the admin, messages, and constant rescheduling can pile up. Many salons face the same hurdles — you’re not alone.

Too Much Time on Admin

Calls, reschedules, reminders, notes — hours slip away on tasks software can handle for you.

Sound familiar?

Details Fall Through the Cracks

Coat types, sensitivities, preferred cuts, reminders — it’s easy to miss something when info lives in different places.

We’ve all been there.

Growing Brings More Moving Parts

More clients and services shouldn’t mean more chaos. You want to spend time grooming, not juggling calendars.

Growth shouldn’t mean stress.

There’s a Calmer Way to Run Your Day

Groomers use TailPlan to stay organized, reduce no-shows, and keep the calendar full — without working longer hours.

From Chaos to Clarity

Common salon problems — and how TailPlan helps

Before TailPlan

Forgotten Appointment Panic

It’s 6pm after a full day. A client arrives: “Here for Bella’s 5pm?” Your heart sinks — you missed it. Stress no one needs.

With TailPlan

Reminders That Just Work

Automatic reminders and synced online booking mean fewer surprises — and smoother days.

Before TailPlan

Scattered Client Details

Sticky notes, DMs, and memory aren’t a system. Consistency suffers when info is everywhere.

With TailPlan

Clear Pet & Client Profiles

History, preferences, sensitivities — all in one place. Consistent, personal care every visit.

Before TailPlan

No View of Revenue

Busy days don’t always mean healthy margins. It’s hard to see what’s working — or who to bring back.

With TailPlan

Simple, Useful Analytics

See top services, trends, and clients to re-engage. Plan with confidence.

Before TailPlan

Team Coordination Strain

Unsynced schedules cause conflicts and last-minute scrambles. Stress rises — clients notice.

With TailPlan

Balanced workloads, clear schedules, fewer conflicts. A calmer team and happier clients.

Ready to Leave the Chaos Behind?

Our Story

From Rescue Work to Salon Software

TailPlan was born from a love for animals and a desire to help the people who care for them. What started in a local animal rescue grew into an intuitive tool built for groomers everywhere.

The Problem

When I started volunteering as a cat caretaker at a local animal rescue, I quickly saw how much time went into chasing paperwork instead of helping animals. Notes on sticky pads, Excel sheets everywhere, and endless confusion — the work was full of love, but lacked structure. When my idea to improve their system was rejected, I realized this wasn’t just a rescue problem — many animal businesses face the same challenge every day.

The Solution

With a background in software engineering and years of experience building tech for major brands, I decided to create something better — intuitive, modular software that actually fits how animal businesses work. Most tools were either too limited or too complex. TailPlan was designed to bring everything together — grooming, boarding, and client management — in one simple, affordable, and accessible platform.

The Mission

Development began in early 2025, and our first beta launched on October 1st. From day one, the goal has been the same: make life easier for people who care for animals. With my cat Billie and dog Kaya always close by (and in memory of our beloved cat Saartje, the real TailPlan office manager), I’m committed to building software that saves time, reduces stress, and helps groomers focus on what truly matters — caring for animals.
