Advanced Technology That Helps Pet Professionals Succeed
70+ years of experience at your service.
Who We Are
Pet-X Solutions was born by the passion and experience of our CEO and Technical Consultants to help pet professionals succeed and have happier and more loyal customers. Our main product, Groom-X, uses advanced technology to bridge the gap in communication between pet owners and pet groomers.

Our Story
In every interaction between two entities, in this case pet groomer and pet owner, there must be a common “language” used to understand each other. When it comes to “translate” into reality a “picture” that our client has in mind, we need to take time to ask the right questions to gather a better understanding and use all the tools and “creativity” at our disposal to make sure that we are on the same page. Currently, existing tools don’t bridge that communication gap that often leads to unsatisfied customers and bad reviews.
Combining the experience we gained in innovation and product development, we decided to develop Groom-X, the first Check-In Assistant visual pet grooming application in the world! Groom-X helps groomers and pet parents visualize the desired grooming style, set realistic expectations, and achieve great results, leading to happier clients and increased business.

About the Founder
The idea for Pet-X started when our CEO, Annalisa, noticed a common problem in the pet grooming industry. With over 35 years of experience, with 15 years in pet services and retail environment as a breeder, groomer, show dog handler, and pet services leader in Italy and the United States.
“I wanted to create a solution extremely easy and “fun” to use. Something that could make both groomers and pet parents visualize the grooming after discussing the pet coat and skin condition without increasing the time spent at check-in. Something that could also be used by receptionists and other professionals when a groomer isn’t available”
– Annalisa, Founder & CEO, Pet-X.

We are contacting the major grooming software providers to integrate our solution for seamless use. It will take some time to strengthen these partnerships but if you want to speed up the process, you can help us by contacting your software provider and asking them to integrate with us. Our goal is to make your life easier while “building connections, one pet at a time”
Once Groom-X is integrated in the software you are currently use, you won’t need to add this extra step. Everything will be automatically available. Until then, if you are using Groom-X as a stand-alone application, you will just need to add the information for the first time for each customer and the application will retain them with the history and images of each groom for future use.
Pet-X is perfect for all kinds of pet grooming businesses, from independent groomers and small shops to large grooming chains and franchises.
