Everything Your Business Needs

Built by someone who runs a multi-service pet care facility — every feature solves a real operational problem.

Live Kennel Availability Calendar

Visual calendar showing every kennel's status — reserved, occupied, clean, or available. Book or move a stay in a couple of taps. Overbooking is impossible.

Capacity Management by Suite Type

Separate capacity pools for small dogs, large dogs, cats, and premium suites. Never sell a kennel you don't have.

Online Reservations with Deposit

Clients book boarding online, upload vaccination PDFs, and pay a deposit to secure the reservation — all before they set foot in your facility.

Vaccine Verification at Check-In

Real-time vaccine status check at check-in. Expired Rabies, DHPP, or Bordetella triggers an alert. Staff verifies compliance in seconds.

Daily Care & Activity Logs

Staff logs bathroom breaks, feeding, medication, mood, and activity for each dog. Creates a documented record for every boarding stay.

Daily Photo SMS to Owners

Send a photo update to each boarding guest's owner every morning. Automated from Animal Friends OS — keeps anxious owners calm and drives 5-star reviews.

Checkout Billing & Upsells

Generate checkout invoice including boarding nights, add-ons, and exit bath. Send payment link via SMS. Cash discount applied automatically at checkout.

Medication Administration Tracking

Flag boarded pets on medication. Display dosage and schedule to staff at each administration time. Log every dose given — timestamped for liability.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the kennel calendar prevent overbooking?
Each kennel is a distinct inventory item. When a kennel is reserved, it's marked unavailable for that date range. The booking form shows only available kennels. Double-booking is structurally impossible.
Can I accept online boarding reservations with deposits?
Yes. Configure a deposit amount (dollar or percentage). When a client books online, they pay the deposit to complete the reservation. The balance is collected at checkout.
How does the daily photo update work?
Staff take a photo of the boarded pet, add a quick note ("Buddy had a great day — two long bathroom breaks and ate all his food"), and send. The owner gets an MMS with the photo. Takes 30 seconds per dog.
Can I track medications for boarded pets?
Yes. Add medication instructions to the pet profile: drug name, dose, frequency, and notes. A medication alert appears in the daily care log for every day a medicated dog is boarded. Staff can log each dose administered.
Does the software handle multi-pet households?
Yes. Book multiple pets from the same owner under one reservation. One check-in process, one invoice, one owner communication thread — correctly linked to each individual pet.
