Take grooming appointments online, capture the breed and the dog's details up front, and stop running your week out of a notebook.
A doodle full groom and a quick puppy bath are not the same appointment, but most generic booking tools treat them like they are. Then you're squeezing a matted spaniel into a slot meant for a nail trim, and the rest of the day runs late.
Joust is a booking system you can shape around real grooming work: services with their own durations and prices, the dog's breed and size captured when the owner books, and a link they can use without phoning the salon.
When an owner books, Joust asks for what you actually need: the dog's name, the breed, the size, whether it's their first visit, and any notes about temperament or matting. No more guessing how long to block or what you're walking into.
Grooming slots are long and hard to refill at short notice. Joust lets you price each service and take payment when the owner books, so a missed appointment isn't a wasted afternoon.
Set how many grooms you'll take a day and Joust shows owners a sensible set of times — enough choice to book, without laying your whole week open or overbooking the bench.
Every account comes with a booking link for your Instagram and Facebook pages, your Google profile, or a card you hand to clients. Owners pick the service, tell you about the dog, choose a time, and you both get a confirmation — no missed calls while you've got your hands full.
No bloated all-in-one tax. Pick the plan that fits.
