Software for home dog boarding
Run a licensed home-boarding business from one screen: bookings and capacity, the DEFRA records an inspector asks for, invoices that add themselves up, and photo updates the owners actually want.
A home boarder is licensed for a number of dogs, not a number of bookings — and the number that matters changes every night of the week. MyPetSitter counts it for you.
What it does for home boarders
Capacity by the night, not by the booking
Your licence number is set once. A date that would take you over it is closed on your calendar and on your clients’ — before anyone asks for it, not after you have said yes.
The records an inspector asks for
Daily welfare checks, medication given, incidents, cleaning, fire drills and staff training, kept against the dates they happened. When your renewal comes round you print what you already recorded.
Consent forms signed before arrival
Vet details, vaccinations, the emergency contact and your own terms, signed on a phone. A dog cannot arrive with a form still on the kitchen table.
Prices per dog size, and per extra dog
Set a rate by size band and what a second dog from the same household pays. The booking prices itself the moment it is made — and the screen that shows the price is the one that charges it.
Invoices that arrive on their own
A month is billed once, on the day you choose, with every night and extra on it. Card payments come in without you asking twice.
Questions home boarders ask
Yes. You set the number your licence allows and the calendar refuses dates that would exceed it, for you and for your clients. Capacity is per night, so an overlapping arrival and departure is counted correctly.
Yes — daily welfare checks, medication, incidents, cleaning, fire drills, staff training and vaccination status, all dated and exportable. They are kept for you to read or export at any time, even if you stop paying.
Yes. They book from your own subdomain, sign your forms, and pay by card. You can also take the booking yourself and send an invoice instead.
Both live in one account. A walking add-on is £5 a month on plans that do not include it, and the calendar, clients and invoices stay in one place.
What your council charges for a licence
Licence fees and inspection costs are set council by council. We keep a page per area with the current figures and a link to the council’s own page.
