Groomers
You See Every Pet Up Close. We Help You Care for Them Better.
Groomers are often the first to notice skin conditions, ear infections, lumps, parasites, and other health issues that pet owners miss. You spend more hands-on time with animals than almost any other professional in the pet industry — and that proximity matters.
Tails Co-Op gives groomers access to cooperative pricing on diagnostics and preventive care products, so you can expand the value you bring to your clients and their pets.
What Groomer Members Get
Smarty Tests Access — Order diagnostics at cooperative member pricing. Skin scrapes, fungal cultures, and basic wellness panels are available at rates below retail — useful when a client asks for your recommendation after you spot something during a groom.
Cooperative Pricing on Preventive Care — Flea/tick prevention, medicated shampoos, ear care products, and skin supplements at bulk cooperative rates. Stock your salon with professional-grade products at prices that protect your margins.
Circle Community — Connect with other groomers, share techniques, discuss difficult coat types, and learn from professionals across the country. A great resource for mobile groomers, salon owners, and independent contractors alike.
Professional Resources — Access educational materials on skin and coat health, breed-specific grooming standards, safe handling techniques, and salon best practices.
Why Groomers Belong in This Co-Op
Groomers are essential to the pet care ecosystem but are often overlooked when it comes to professional resources and pricing. Most grooming professionals are self-employed or work in small businesses with no access to bulk pricing on care products. Tails Co-Op changes that by pooling buying power across thousands of animal care professionals — giving every groomer access to the same cooperative pricing regardless of business size.
Who Can Join
Membership is open to professional groomers — whether you work in a salon, run a mobile grooming business, or operate independently. Certified groomers, apprentices, and grooming salon staff are all welcome. We verify your professional status during onboarding.
