Naming guide for your pet grooming business

Pet owners choose a groomer by how their animal will be treated, so the name has to sound kind before it sounds clever. A paw, a wag or a whisker in the name makes the trade obvious, and a gentle describing word says the right thing about how you handle a nervous dog.

Decide whether you are a salon, a mobile service or a spa. A name with salon or parlour suggests a shop to visit, while a name with spa promises a treat. A van-based business usually does better with a short name that reads on the side of the vehicle.

Dogs and cats are not the only customers. If you groom both, avoid a name that names only one, and use a pet or a paw word. The cute and punny styles are popular in this trade, but a classic or a modern name can help you stand out among a street of paws.

Before you commit to a name

Search your local business register or company registry for the same name, and for names that look or sound almost the same.
Search the web, maps and the social networks you plan to use for businesses that already trade under it, especially in your own town and trade.
Look the name up yourself in the trademark register of your country. This site does not check trademarks and makes no claim that a name is free to use.
Check that a domain name and the social handles you want are available, or that you can live with a close variant.
Say it aloud, spell it to a friend over the phone and read it small on a sticker or a van door.

Questions

Do I need a dog word in the name?

Not necessarily. Paw, tail and fur words are shared by dogs and cats alike. A name with only the word dog may put off cat owners, so a pet word is the safer choice if you do both.

Is a pun a good idea for a grooming business?

Puns are everywhere in this trade, so a pun may already be on the next street. If you like one, search for it near you first and consider a classic or modern name to stand out.

Can I use the name of my own pet?

Yes. Type it into the keyword box and the generator builds names around it. A real pet's name makes a friendly brand and a nice story for your website.

What should I check before I choose a name?

Check your local business register, search for similar groomers in your area and read the trademark register of your country yourself. Also check the domain and social handles you want.
