Grooming Forms FAQ

Are these grooming forms really free?
Yes. Every template here is free to print, save as a PDF, and use in your grooming business. No signup or payment is required, and you can customize any field to fit your salon.
How do I edit or save the forms?
Click “Print / Save as PDF” on any form. In the print dialog, choose your printer for a paper copy or “Save as PDF” to keep a digital version you can fill in or attach to a client record.
Do I also need a grooming consent or liability waiver?
Yes — a signed grooming consent and liability release protects you in the event of a nick, a senior-pet incident, or a matting shave-down. The intake form here collects details; build the actual consent form with the free waiver generator.
What vaccinations should the record include?
Most salons track rabies and DHPP at minimum, and many also require Bordetella. Requirements vary by location and by your own policy, so confirm what you require and what your local rules mandate.
