What callers want
Riley knows the calls dog groomers get.
- Grooming appointment requests
- Price questions by breed and size
- Nail trims and baths
- Pickup time questions

For each one she captures what you need to quote or schedule: dog's breed, size and name; service they want; days and times that work; owner's name and callback number.
Urgent calls
Emergencies don't wait for voicemail.

- A same-day appointment request
Example call
Caller: “Can I get my golden retriever groomed this week?”
Riley: “Of course! What's your pup's name? Tell me which days work and I'll send the request over.”
