Colorado has a 4.4% flat income tax. Flat 4.4% income tax. Complex local tax jurisdictions — over 70 home-rule cities with their own sales tax rates. Denver occupational privilege tax ($5.75/month for employees).
When evaluating software costs, factor in your effective tax rate. A $2,520/year software expense is partially deductible — but Nexa at $279 once is a one-time deduction that eliminates the recurring expense entirely.
Whether you call it invoicing, a app for jobs, or a invoicing system — most pet groomer in Aurora string together plus other subscriptions. That's $2,520/year in tool subscriptions. Across five years at today's prices, you're looking at $12,600.
Nexa gives you the ability to exit the subscription trap. Your CRM, invoicing, booking, jobs, time tracking, and financial tools — in a single app. One click books a client. One click generates an invoice. No switching tabs. No duct-tape integrations. No integration tax. It's a one-time purchase — cut costs from the first day. For pet groomer in Aurora weighing the switch, the 30-day money-back guarantee covers the migration window — you can run Nexa in parallel with your existing subscriptions, verify the workflow handles your real client load, and only cancel the monthly tools once you are confident the data and processes have settled in.
First dog is on the table by eight — a shih tzu in for a full groom, so it's bath in the warm tub, force-dry to fluff the coat, then clipper the body to length, scissor the face round, do the sanitary trim and the paw pads, grind the nails, and clean the ears. You note he's squirmy about the dryer so the next groomer knows. The morning's rhythm depends entirely on the coat that actually walks in: the 'quick' doodle the owner swore was brushed turns out to be pelted to the skin, and now it's a careful shave-down because you can't comb through a mat without hurting the dog, and that blows your timing by ninety minutes. A nervous rescue needs slow hands and breaks, and you keep glancing at the intake note hoping someone flagged the bite history before you reach under the belly. A multi-dog family arrives — a tiny yorkie, a standard poodle, and a husky in for a de-shed blowout — three completely different time blocks stacked into one drop-off. Between dogs you're checking vaccine records, calling owners for pickup, and writing down which dog hated the nail grinder so next time goes smoother. The grooming is craft. The chaos is timing breeds correctly, reading temperament before you get bitten, and keeping every pet's notes attached to the right owner.
That is the work Nexa is built around: the job, the client, the hours and the invoice live in one place, so the paperwork side of the day doesn't need a second shift.
Every one of those was bought once and earns its keep for years. Nexa is priced the same way: $279 once, and it keeps working whether business is busy or slow.

We build a pet groomer's guide the same way every time, and we'd rather you trust it than take it on faith. Nexa is our product, so the test we hold ourselves to is simple: a tool only "wins" a job here when it genuinely does that job better for a pet groomer — and where something free, open-source, or buy-once does it better, we say so and link you to it. Where Nexa falls short (payroll is the honest example), we name the alternative outright.
Found something out of date? Prices change and we don't catch every move the day it happens. This guide is published and maintained by the Nexa team; if a figure here is wrong, tell us and we'll fix it — getting it right matters more to us than the sale.
