A pet grooming answering service that texts back before you rinse the next dog.
Your hands are full of dog when the phone rings out. Risacare catches the miss: the caller hears a short greeting, and your booking link is already in their texts — from your number, in seconds, before they call the next groomer on Google.
Built for the grooming shop
Texts back in seconds
The moment you miss a call, the caller has a text from your number. Every send is clocked and logged.
Your booking link, in their hand
The text carries your booking link — the caller taps it and books their own slot straight into your connected calendar (Google Calendar or Cal.com).
Replies become leads
When the caller texts back, it's saved with their number and you get an alert — call back between dogs.
Carrier-verified sending
A real local number registered to your business (A2P — the carrier registration that keeps your texts out of spam), with STOP and HELP handled automatically.
Pet grooming FAQ
What happens when I miss a call mid-groom?
The caller hears a short professional greeting — thanks for calling, we've just texted you a link to book — and the text is already on their phone, sent from your business number.
Does it ask about breed, coat, or vaccination?
No. Risacare doesn't ask callers anything — it's a recorded greeting plus a text. Breed, coat, and vaccination questions still happen when you call the lead back.
Does it collect a deposit?
No. Risacare doesn't charge or collect anything from callers. If your own booking page takes deposits, that stays yours — Risacare's job stops at getting your booking link in front of the caller.
Does it replace my number or voicemail?
No. It's a forward-on-no-answer on your existing line. Calls you catch live never touch it, and voicemail stays as a backstop for callers who prefer it.
Does it sync with Gingr or PocketSuite?
No — those are practice-management tools we don't integrate with. What happens instead: the caller taps your booking link and books their own slot straight into your connected calendar (Google Calendar or Cal.com); the reply also lands in your Risacare leads with their number.
