Pet grooming calls, answered and booked.
A pet grooming answering service answers the call you cannot reach mid-groom, because a ringing phone you miss is a booking the next shop happily takes. Ansio picks up 24/7, books the groom on your calendar, and sends SMS reminders that actually get read, so you keep your hands on the dog and your slots full. Live the same day on your existing number.

Pet grooming answering service FAQs
What is a pet grooming answering service?
A pet grooming answering service answers calls and books grooming appointments for a grooming or boarding business when staff are busy or closed. Ansio does this with AI: it picks up every call 24/7, books on your Google, Outlook, or Square calendar during the call, and sends SMS confirmations and reminders.
Can it book grooming appointments during the call?
Yes. Ansio checks your calendar and books, reschedules, or cancels the grooming slot while the owner is on the phone, then texts them a confirmation.
Does it send appointment reminders?
Yes. Ansio sends SMS confirmations and reminders before each appointment, so owners know when their grooming time is.
What does it cost?
Ansio runs on one clear monthly plan, starting at about $39 a month with your call minutes and texts included, so you always know what you are paying. No contract, and you can cancel anytime.
How fast can I get set up?
Ansio is live the same day. You forward your existing grooming shop number, with no new hardware and no contract.
Can it answer when the shop is closed?
Yes. Ansio answers nights, weekends, and holidays, so owners can book a grooming appointment even after you have gone home.
The questions every owner asks first
Fair concerns about handing your calls to an AI helper. Here are the straight answers.
Will my clients know they are talking to a computer?
Most do not, and you can hear it first. Edward calls you back in seconds, so ask him to book a balayage and listen to how it sounds. He answers in a natural voice, speaks 30+ languages, and when a call needs a person, he passes it along so your front desk stays the warm voice clients know.
What if it books the wrong slot or double-books a chair?
Ansio reads your live calendar before it confirms, so it only offers times you actually have, and it refills late cancellations instead of leaving the chair empty. Every call is recorded and transcribed, so you can check any booking in seconds.
Am I locked in, and is it a hassle to start?
No contract, ever. Flat from about $39 a month with minutes included, cancel anytime in one click. Setup is same-day, nothing to install, nothing new for the front desk to learn. Try it free for 3 days on your real line before you commit.
Stop missing grooming calls. Start booking every one
Ansio answers every call, books grooming appointments on your calendar, and texts confirmations and reminders. Live the same day on your existing number, cancel anytime.
