Corrections & Business Claims

How to report an inaccurate listing, request a business update, document a closure, or verify authority to manage a profile.

Report a factual correction

Send the listing URL, the field that is wrong, the corrected information, and a source we can examine. Strong sources include the business's current website, a message from an email address on the business domain, a current public licensing or registration record where relevant, or clear documentation supplied by an authorized representative.

A social post or screenshot can be useful context but may not establish identity on its own. Do not send customer account numbers, full identity documents, payment information, medical records, or other sensitive material unless we specifically request a safer, limited form of proof.

  • Wrong name, category, address, phone, website, or service area
  • Duplicate profile or a website matched to the wrong business
  • Permanently closed, moved, or changed ownership
  • Unsupported service, accessibility, credential, or booking claim
  • Image used without permission or attached to the wrong provider

Claim a business profile

A claim request begins with the listing URL, the requester's name and role, and a reliable business contact channel. We may confirm control through an address on the business's domain, a phone number already associated with the business, or limited supporting documentation. The verification method depends on the evidence available and the risk of changing the requested field.

Claiming a profile allows a verified representative to propose updates more efficiently. It does not transfer ownership of the directory page, guarantee publication, remove legitimate correction history, improve ordinary search placement, or allow unsupported promotional claims.

What happens after submission

A useful request identifies a specific record, the proposed change, and evidence that can be checked against the existing source information. Disputed identity, ownership, closure, or legal requests may require more evidence before a change can be made.

Authority may be checked through a business contact channel independent of the information supplied in the request. Submission does not promise a particular outcome or response time; complete evidence makes a request easier to evaluate.

Reviews, criticism, and disputes

A business claim is not a tool for removing accurate, lawfully published information merely because it is unflattering. At the same time, we do not want fabricated reviews, harassment, private information, or claims presented without adequate support. Report the exact content and reason for concern so it can be evaluated under the applicable policy.

If a request raises a legal issue, identify the specific material, the legal basis asserted, your relationship to the affected party, and a reliable way to respond. This process is not legal advice and does not waive any rights or defenses.

How to reach us

Email nocturnaldevs@gmail.com with the subject “Listing correction” or “Business claim.” Include direct links and keep attachments limited to what is necessary. If a profile offers an on-page correction control, using it helps attach the request to the right record.

For an urgent animal-welfare or medical concern, contact an appropriate local authority or veterinarian. Dog Groomers US does not provide emergency response and a directory correction inbox is not monitored as an emergency channel.
