Know the coat before you quote the time.

Coat Forecast opens on grooming appointments and every pet profile — visit history, Coat DNA, notes, and live humidity near your salon.

Every dog builds a living coat profile that gets sharper visit after visit — matting risk, shedding season, behavior hints, prep time, and thoughtful upsell prompts from your data.

Quote with confidence before the dog hits the table. Coat Forecast surfaces matting risk, shedding seasonality, and groomer-specific behavior patterns — grounded in your salon's history, not a generic template.

“Hey Sarah — Biscuit's forecast shows humidity matting today, so I blocked an extra twenty minutes. Looks like his annual shed too — want me to add a de-shed?”
See it in the demo →
Biscuit · Friday 10:00
Coat Forecast · live on appointments
Matting — Humidity ~84% RH. Last April visits averaged 7/10. Suggest +20 min.
Shedding — Mid-April blowout. De-shed not booked since last year → offer at check-in.
Anxiety — Longer dryer step last 3 visits. Best groomer already assigned.
Revenue — Teeth brushing absent 6+ months; last add-on → 18% tip.

Withers visit status tracker preview

What the link shows

The page mirrors how you move the visit through Withers: pet name and appointment time at the top, then a horizontal progress rail with clear stages (for example on schedule, confirmed, grooming, complete).

  • No app install — works in the phone browser from text or email.
  • Token-only access — each URL is unique to that visit; nothing to sign up for.
  • Pickup-ready messaging — when you mark the appointment complete, the page can surface short pickup hints so owners know what to do next.

Your live page pulls real appointment data from your salon’s Withers account.

Only on Withers
Snap a photo in the app — text it to the owner in one flow

How it works: On any pet profile, open Reference photos, tap Upload photo, choose Take photo or Choose from library, label the shot for your team, then Share photos with owner to send a branded SMS link — without leaving Withers.

Most grooming software makes you jump to the camera roll and paste into a personal text thread. Withers keeps labeled reference shots on the pet profile and sends a short link from your salon's SMS — logged in Messages like every other client text.

Demo walkthrough · fictional client & pet shown for illustration

Groomers use it mid-visit: capture coat condition, matting, a fresh finish, skin issues, or a nick or minor cut, tag it for the team, and text the owner before they ask. Up to 24 labeled photos per pet stay on the profile; you can share up to 3 at a time with an optional note.

1
Upload photo on the pet profile — pick Take photo (in-app camera) or Choose from library.
2
Label it for your team — coat, skin, nick or minor cut, behavior, before/after, or other — so the next groomer knows why the shot matters.
3
Share photos with owner — select shots, add a short note, and tap Send photo SMS. Withers publishes a branded page and texts the link from your salon number.
4
Confirmed in Messages — the outbound SMS appears in your Withers inbox with delivery status, same as reminders and two-way replies.

Why it's different: Reference photos live on the pet record for your whole team. The owner gets a clean photo page — not a blurry MMS — and you never hand off to a personal phone to finish the job.

Frequently asked questions
How much does Withers cost?
Withers is $129/month for the full platform (see the Plans section for the live list). Includes 1,000 SMS/month and 2 salon locations or mobile vans. Need more bases? Add any extra salon or van for $49/month each — each extra base also adds 200 SMS to your monthly allowance. You are billed through Stripe when you add a card at signup. Cancel anytime from your account.
How fast can I get started?
Most salons can be up and running the same day. Create an account, add services and staff, then start booking right away.
Can I use Withers for both mobile and salon grooming?
Yes! Withers is built for both. Every appointment is tagged as salon or mobile, and your schedule, reports, and payroll all reflect the difference. You can run a hybrid operation from one account.
How do the SMS reminders work?
SMS reminders use a secure provider (Twilio). Your deployment sets the sending number; you toggle reminders in Settings. We handle the wiring so you do not have to write code.
Can I send intake forms to new clients?
Yes. Build your intake form inside Settings, copy the shareable link, and send it via text or email to new clients. They fill it out, sign your grooming agreement digitally, and the submission automatically saves to their pet profile.
What is included in the 1,000 SMS?
Reminders, confirmations, schedule updates, and two-way inbox replies through your Withers number. Most shops with 150–250 appointments/month stay within the included allowance. Need more? Add SMS packs from your account.
What counts as a salon vs. a van?
A salon is a fixed location with its own schedule. A van is a mobile grooming unit with routes and its own calendar. Your plan includes 2 units — for example 1 salon + 1 van, 2 salons, or 2 vans. Need a third (or more)? Add any extra salon or mobile van for $49/month each — and you get 200 more SMS with every extra base.
Can I add more than 2 salon or mobile bases?
Yes. Your plan includes 2 bases (salon locations, mobile vans, or a mix). Beyond that, purchase additional bases at $49/month each — salon or mobile. Every extra base also adds 200 SMS to your monthly allowance.
Are payment processing fees included?
No — your Withers subscription covers the platform only. Card processing is billed separately by Stripe.

Stripe's standard US rates: 2.9% + $0.30 per online card charge, 2.7% + $0.05 for in-person Tap to Pay / Terminal, and an extra 1.5% for international cards. Confirm your exact rates in your Stripe dashboard.
Can I use boarding and daycare if I only groom today?
Yes. You still get the full platform — turn on boarding or daycare when you need them. One price whether you use every module on day one or grow into them later.
Can I cancel anytime?
Absolutely. Cancel any time from your account settings — no questions asked, no cancellation fees. You keep full access until the end of your current billing cycle.
