Savvy Pet review
A broad UK-focused grooming platform with forms and API access, but web-only access.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Savvy Pet is scheduling and business-management software for pet groomers, mobile groomers, home groomers, salons, and multi-location operators. Its feature set spans appointment calendars, online booking, customer and pet records, grooming history, email and SMS reminders, payments, deposits, invoices, stored cards, forms, contracts, staff rotas, permissions, reports, and integrations. It suits businesses that want scheduling and day-to-day salon administration in one web-based system, from solo operators through multi-location teams.
Pricing is tiered by operational depth. Basic costs GBP 25 per month and includes customer and pet information, an electronic calendar, email reminders, and notes. Advanced costs GBP 38 per month, adding appointment management, customisable SMS and email reminders, payments and invoices, Gmail and iCal integration, analytics and reports, and customisable forms. Extra costs GBP 48 per month and adds online booking, a customer portal, staff rota tools, permission management, and calendar views by groomer. Salon costs GBP 53 per month and adds multi-location dashboards and switching between salons in one account. Enterprise lists multi-factor authentication, SAML/OIDC support, single sign-on, role-based permissions, free migration support, and a custom SMS plan. A 14-day trial is available, and subscriptions have a three-month minimum.
The strongest fit is for UK groomers that need more than a calendar, particularly those requiring custom forms, payment workflows, staff scheduling, or API and webhook connectivity. Gmail, iCal, Google Calendar, and PayPal support broaden its ecosystem fit, while the plan structure lets smaller businesses add controls as they grow. The trade-off is that access is web-only, and the more complete operating model sits above Basic. Groomers seeking native mobile access or a simpler, narrower scheduler should consider an alternative built around those priorities.
