Post the real grooming transformations and boarding days, not stock photos.

Social media marketing for a pet business means posting real before-and-after grooming photos, boarding day updates and staff introductions that build trust with parents deciding where to book. GullySales runs this calendar around the services and seasons with the most enquiries.

What social media means

Social media is the ongoing posting your business does on platforms such as Instagram, Facebook and LinkedIn to stay visible to customers and prospects between purchases. GullySales plans a posting calendar, writes captions and designs the images so the page looks active and answers what a visitor would ask.

For pet service businesses

Where it usually goes wrong, and what we would do.

  • “Before and after grooming posts outperform announcements”

    A real transformation photo is shared and commented on far more than a post about a new service or offer.

  • “Boarding day updates reassure parents mid-stay and future ones”

    A short update posted during a pet's boarding stay reassures the current parent and reaches future ones browsing the page.

  • “Comments need a fast, warm reply”

    A question left unanswered in the comments about safety or pricing reads as neglect to anyone else reading it.

What we do

What we deliver for pet service businesses.

Every deliverable, what it covers for you, and the result it is there to produce. Nothing here is an extra.

  1. Before and after grooming content series

    A running series of real transformation photos from actual grooming appointments, in place of announcement or offer posts.

    Result: More people share and comment, putting the business in front of new parents.

  2. Boarding day update posts

    Short updates posted during real boarding stays, showing the pet settled in and cared for.

    Result: The current parent worries less, and a future one sees what a stay looks like.

  3. Comment reply routine

    A standing routine to answer safety or pricing questions left in comments quickly, rather than leaving them unanswered.

    Result: An unanswered comment no longer reads as neglect.

  4. Staff introduction content

    Short posts introducing the actual groomers and trainers a parent will meet, building familiarity before the first visit.

    Result: A parent recognises a familiar face when they arrive.

  5. Posting calendar built from real activity

    A steady schedule drawn from actual bookings and stays that week, instead of generic filler content.

    Result: Every post has something real behind it worth showing.

How the result is measured

  • Posts published
  • Engagement rate
  • Enquiries from social profiles

Recorded as a baseline before work starts, so every later report has an honest comparison.

Platform for this buyer

Where pet parents look for care, and what a pet business should post.

Instagram reels of the day
Film a bath, a play session or a walk, with the pet's name and the staff member handling it. End with one action: message to book a groom or to ask about boarding dates.
WhatsApp Status for existing pet parents
Post photographs of boarders enjoying their day, with the owner's consent, and note which grooming slots are open. Parents of boarders check Status more than anything else.
Facebook and housing society groups
Answer a question about a puppy's first groom or travel plans, and post your service area. Pet parents in a society ask each other whom they trust.
Google Business Profile photographs
Add the grooming room, the kennels or play area and the cleaning routine as they really are. A parent comparing boarding centres checks cleanliness first.
What not to post
Do not post a pet that was upset or hurt, another person's pet without permission or health claims such as treating a skin condition. Send medical questions to the vet.

How it works

From your first message to the first report.

No open-ended retainer. Every step gives you something in writing.

  1. First

    Your brief

    You tell us what you need in a few short steps: your business, what you want, where enquiries come from and how they are handled.

  2. After the brief

    A conversation and a written scope

    We read it, then talk with whoever handles your enquiries. If you want our help, the scope, the fee and the reporting come in writing, and nothing starts before you have read them.

  3. Before work starts

    Baseline recorded

    The numbers this work is meant to move, such as enquiries, quotations, orders, visits or renewals, written down so every later report has an honest comparison.

  4. After the baseline

    The first fix goes live

    The fix we agreed to start with is put in place and measured against the baseline, whether that is a reply, a follow-up, a page, a listing or the handover between marketing and sales.

  5. As agreed

    Report against the baseline

    What moved, what did not, and what changes next, in plain words. How often you get it is set in writing before work starts.

  6. At renewal

    Renew on the numbers

    The term ends and you decide whether to continue from the results. The length is agreed in writing before anything starts.

How the social media work runs

  1. 1

    Understand your audience and platforms

    We identify which platforms your specific buyers actually use and what kind of content they respond to.

  2. 2

    Audit current presence

    We review existing pages, past content performance and any gaps in consistency.

  3. 3

    Build the content calendar

    A plan is created, balancing genuine value with occasional direct offers.

  4. 4

    Implement and post

    Content is created and published consistently on the agreed schedule.

  5. 5

    Measure and optimise

    We track enquiries alongside engagement and adjust the content mix based on what actually performs.

Why us

Why owners pick GullySales over an agency.

  • Marketing and sales, as one job

    Most agencies stop at the enquiry. We also fix what happens after it: the reply, the follow-up, the quote and the CRM.

  • The person on the first call does the work

    No account managers in between. You are never handed to someone you have not met.

  • A baseline before anything starts

    Your numbers are written down on day one, so every later report compares against something honest.

  • The fee in writing, split three ways

    Our time, your media spend and production on separate lines. You always see what goes to us.

  • No guarantees we cannot keep

    The term is agreed in writing and never a default twelve months. We never promise a ranking or a lead count, because nobody controls those.

  • One office, and we say so

    Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru. We work across India by call and WhatsApp and travel when a session needs to be in person.

#257, 3rd floor, Sri Nanjundeshwara Complex, Nagarbhavi 8th Block, Outer Ring Road. How we work.

FAQ

Questions owners ask before they call.

Not here? More answers, or ask on WhatsApp.

Tell us what you need
Which platform matters most?
Instagram for grooming and boarding content, alongside the Google Business Profile most enquiries still come through.
How often should we post?
A steady few posts a week built from real activity works better than an irregular, generic schedule.
Can we post a customer's pet without asking?
Ask first, and keep it in writing, such as a line on the booking form. A pet's photograph shows its owner's home and habits, and some owners are private. A permission line lets you post with confidence and take a picture down if the owner changes their mind.
Should staff introductions name the groomers?
Use first names and a short line on experience, with the person's agreement. Parents trust a named handler. If a staff member leaves, remove them from pinned posts and highlights so parents do not ask for someone who is no longer there.
How much does it cost?
There is no price list, because the work differs by business. The fee is scoped after we have read your brief and spoken to you, and put in writing before anything starts, split into our time, your media spend and production.
How long is the contract?
The term is agreed in writing after we have spoken, along with the fee and the reporting. It is never a default twelve months, and renewal is decided on the numbers against the baseline recorded at the start.
How soon will we see results?
It depends on the trade, the channel and what is already in place. After we have read your brief and spoken to you, we say what we would expect to move first and how it will be measured against the baseline. Nothing here is guaranteed.
Who will actually do the work?
The person you speak to before anything starts. We work from one office in Nagarbhavi, Bengaluru, with no account managers in between.
What do you need from us?
Your brief, and a conversation. After that, access to whatever this work touches, such as your website, your accounts or your enquiry record, and time with the people who handle your enquiries.
What if we are not happy with the work?
Tell us and the plan changes. Everything is reported against the baseline, so a number that is not moving is visible to both sides. The term is in your written scope, and the refund and cancellation policy sets out the rest.
