Complete POS & Inventory System Built for Pet Stores & Groomers
Run retail, grooming appointments, treats and bulk food priced by weight, selling of live animals and other non-barcode items through one unified retail management platform.
Why Generic POS Systems Fail Pet Stores & Groomers
A pet store isn't just retail—it's grooming appointments, treats sold by weight, and live animals with no barcode at all. Generic software simply can't bridge the gap.
The Typical Approach
- No concept of service appointments
- No weight-based pricing
- Can't ring up items without a barcode
- Forces manual workarounds at checkout
The Visual Retail Plus Approach
- Grooming service tracking built in
- Scale-integrated weight pricing
- Custom lookups for non-barcode items
- Loyalty and CRM included
One System for the Sales Floor and the Grooming Table
Whether you sell supplies, groom pets, or both, VRP gives you complete control over inventory, service tracking, and checkout in one place.
- Grooming Service & Appointment Tracking: Manage grooming and other services as work orders alongside your retail sales. Customers can log in and book their own appointments with a specific groomer if requested.
- Scale Integration: Connect digital scales directly to VRP for accurate weight-based pricing on treats and bulk food.
- Non-Barcode Product Lookup: Print your own barcode labels and use a product lookup station for items with no manufacturer barcode, like live fish.
- Pet Apparel & Accessories: Track size, color, and style variants for pet apparel and packaged food.
