What walk-ins are like today

The stuff that eats a shift, before anything changes.

  • A noisy lobby

    Several dogs waiting in one small room is stressful for everyone.

  • Walk-in nail trims

    Quick services pile up next to full grooms.

  • Constant check-ins

    Owners keep asking where they are in line.

How NextUp helps

What changes once the line lives on a phone instead of a bench.

1

Wait outside

Pet parents take a walk and come back when called.

2

Clear order

Everyone sees their place live on their phone.

3

Groomers on the table

Call the next pet with one tap from the staff screen.
