For home boarders · kennels · catteries · daycares · dog walkers · pet sitters

Your bookings, off WhatsApp and under control.

Boardwick runs booking requests, capacity, pet records, vaccination expiries, invoices and photo updates for your pet care business, while your customers book from a simple link you share. No per-user fees. No add-ons. One flat price.

How it works

Set up in five minutes

Create your business

Name it, choose your services (boarding, daycare, walks, visits), set prices and the capacity your licence allows.

Share your booking link

Drop your private link into your customer WhatsApp group. Your customers register themselves and keep their own pets' details current.

Confirm requests

Every booking arrives as a request with an availability and capacity check. You confirm or decline; nothing books itself into your diary.

Everything included

Built for how pet care businesses actually work

Request-and-confirm bookings

Customers see your live availability and your time away, then request dates. You approve with one tap. Walk-in and phone bookings can be added by you directly.

Capacity and licence limits

Set a maximum per service to match your council licence. Boarding counts nights, daycare counts days, and you can flex your own limits when you choose.

Full pet records

Health, diet, medication, behaviour, vet, insurance, microchip and vaccinations with expiry warnings. Owners keep their own records current, so you don't have to chase.

Photo and video updates

Snap a photo on your walk and send it straight to the owner's booking page, with a one-tap WhatsApp nudge so they never miss it.

Invoices

Numbered invoices with line items, payment links and paid tracking, and a WhatsApp share that sends the total and pay link in one message.

Notifications

A push notification the moment a booking request lands, and your customers get one when you confirm. No more finding requests three days later.

Pricing

One price. Everything. Everyone.

Typical pet sitting software charges £20 to £75 a month once you add per-staff fees and messaging add-ons. Boardwick is one flat price, and your customers never pay anything.

Questions

Fair questions, straight answers

Can random people book me?

No. Only customers who follow your private booking link can register with your business, and every booking is a request until you confirm it. Your diary stays yours.

Do my customers pay anything?

No. Customers use the web app free from the link you share. Only the business subscribes.

I look after cats, not dogs. Does it fit?

Yes. You choose whether Boardwick talks about dogs, cats or pets, and services are whatever you offer: boarding, daycare, visits, walks or your own.

What about my existing customers who book by text?

You can add customers and their bookings yourself in seconds. If they later create an account with the same email, everything connects to their login automatically.

Does chat move into the app?

No, and that is deliberate. Conversation stays in WhatsApp where your customers already are. Boardwick handles the structured things WhatsApp loses: requests, records, invoices and updates, with one-tap WhatsApp messages built in.
