No add-on modules for core features. Plans start at $69/mo, plus a one-time $49 activation fee.

🐕

Daily Capacity Limits

Set a max number of dogs per day. Once full, the booking widget shows the next available day — no overbooking, no chaos.

📋

Digital Check-In

Staff tap to check in each dog on arrival. No clipboards, no paper forms. Vaccination status verified automatically at check-in.

📸

Activity Reports

Send parents a mid-day update: a photo, a note about how their dog played, whether they ate. Takes 30 seconds per dog.

📹

Live Webcam Integration

Connect iDogCam or any RTSP camera. Parents watch their dog play live — no app install required. Trust-building on autopilot.

💬

Automated Parent Texts

Auto-text at drop-off confirmation, mid-day activity note, and pickup reminder. Parents feel connected without you manually texting.

🏥

Vaccine Tracking

Every dog's vaccine records attached to their profile. System flags expired vaccines and blocks check-in until updated.

📊

Attendance & Revenue Reports

See occupancy by day, week, and month. Spot your low-traffic days and target them with promotions.

🎟️

Daycare Punch Cards

Sell 10-day or 20-day punch packages at a slight discount. Clients pay upfront — you improve cash flow.

FAQ

Common Questions

Straight answers from an operator who uses this software daily.

Can I run daycare and boarding from the same system?

Yes. Daycare and boarding share the same calendar, client profiles, vaccine records, and billing — no double entry.

How do I handle a dog who's not good with others?

Add a "solo play only" flag to their profile. Staff see it at check-in and the booking widget can ask temperament questions before confirming.

What happens if a dog's vaccine expires mid-membership?

The system sends the owner an alert and flags the dog at check-in. You decide whether to allow entry pending update — the staff always knows.

Can parents book recurring daycare days (like every Tuesday)?

Yes. Recurring daycare slots are available — client books once and the spot repeats on their chosen days until cancelled.

Do punch cards expire?

You control expiry. Set a 6-month or 12-month validity window, or leave them open-ended.
