Boarding
Boarding & daycare
Every stay against a real kennel, an occupancy board that cannot lie, a daily care log the owner would be glad to read, and the extras billed instead of forgotten.

What Boarding does
You know exactly which run is free on the long weekend, because the software knows. Every stay is booked against a real kennel, and it will not let two dogs into the same one on the same night — not a warning, a refusal. Check-in reads the boosters against your protocol and tells you at the door, not once the dog is already in with twenty others.

Capabilities
Inside Boarding
01
A board of the actual building
Every kennel, who is in it, who is arriving and who leaves today. Free space is a fact, not a guess someone makes on the phone.
02
It refuses to double-book a run
Two people, two screens, one bank holiday. The database won't take the second booking. That is one mistake you'll never have again.
03
Rates that work themselves out
By species, kennel size and season, with peak dates. Snapshotted onto the stay when it is booked, so changing next year’s prices never rewrites last year’s bill.
04
What he needs, carried between stays
Feeding, medication, walk routine, the things he is frightened of. Kept on the pet, so the fourth stay starts where the third finished.
05
A care log worth showing the owner
Fed, walked, medicated, played, cleaned — logged as it happens, by whoever did it, on a phone. Overdue tasks show up before anyone has to remember them.
06
The extras actually get billed
The medication you gave, the extra walk, the late pickup. Added as a line on the stay when it happens, so it reaches the invoice instead of your goodwill.
07
His blanket goes home with him
Belongings recorded at check-in and checked off at collection. The lead, the bed, the half bag of his food.

Works with
Look up
One search box that takes a pet's name, the owner's name, a phone number, a microchip or any reference — and puts that animal's whole history on one screen.
Appointments
One diary for grooming, boarding, daycare and the vet room, with reminders that go out on their own and a calendar invite the customer can actually add.
Grooming
A board of who is in, who is on the table and who is ready, with prices that already know the breed, photos on the file, and commission that adds itself up.
