You know these problems
Because every pet service professional has them
Anxious owners blowing up your cell phone
"Did you pick him up?" "Is she okay?" "Are you nearly there?" Constant messages because they can't see what's happening. You're trying to work.
Driving past clients to get to other clients
5 walks in the same neighbourhood but you're driving back and forth. Wasting gas and time. Could fit in 2 more walks if the route made sense.
Keys and access codes everywhere
15 keys on a ring. Gate codes in your notes app. Alarm codes on scraps of paper. One day you'll lose them all and your business stops.
Built for how pet services actually work
FREE 'picked up Fluffy' texts
Send unlimited updates through your phone's SMS. 'On my way', 'All safe', 'Back home'. Other apps charge 15p each. That's CA$120/month if you send 40/day. Ours are FREE.
Works offline in parks
Full database on your phone. Mark walks complete in the park. Update notes with no signal. Schedule jobs in rural areas. Syncs when you're online.
Route optimization
See your whole day on a map. Tap 'optimize'. Walks reorder automatically. More walks, less driving. Save 2 hours every day.
Payment Links
Send a payment link via QR code or text. They pay when they're ready. Most pay before you're back at the van.
Recurring daily schedules
Mondays and Thursdays? Every Tuesday? Set it once, it appears forever. Perfect for daily dog walking rounds. No more manual planning.
Accounting integrations
Sync invoices to Xero, QuickBooks, or FreeAgent. No double entry. Your accountant gets clean data automatically.
FREE SMS messaging saves you CA$1,400+/year
Other pet service apps charge CA$0.15-0.20 per text. If you send 40 texts/day (most dog walkers do for pickup/dropoff confirmations), that's CA$6-8/day or CA$120-160/month.
Scheduling Hero sends messages through your phone's native SMS. Completely free. Uses your existing phone plan. Owners get instant peace of mind.
That's CA$1,400-1,900 back in your pocket every year.

How Premium pays for itself
Common questions about pet services software
How do I store pet-specific notes like medication or behaviour issues?
Add detailed notes to each customer record—medication schedules, behavioural quirks, favourite treats, vet details, anything important. "Bella needs her arthritis tablet at 2pm" or "Max gets anxious around other dogs". Notes are always on your phone, even offline in the park.
Can I manage multiple visits to the same area each day?
Yes. With Premium route optimisation, tap 'optimize' and your day reorders by location automatically. Stop driving past clients to get to other clients. Group your morning pickups, your lunchtime walks, your afternoon dropoffs. Save 30+ minutes a day and fit in more walks.
How do I keep track of all my clients' keys and access codes?
Store gate codes, alarm codes, key safe locations, and entry instructions in customer notes. They're always on your phone and backed up to the cloud (Premium). If you lose your phone, your business doesn't stop—just log in on another device.
What happens when a client cancels at the last minute?
Remove the job from your schedule and tap 'optimize' (Premium). Your route reorders automatically. Send a FREE text to your next client if you'll be early. No more driving to empty houses or scrambling to fill gaps. The cancelled job's notes stay in the customer record for next time.
How do I let anxious owners know their pet is safe?
Send FREE 'picked up Fluffy' and 'back home safe' texts with one tap. Uses your phone's native SMS, so it costs you nothing. Other apps charge CA$0.10-0.20 per message—at 40 texts a day, that's CA$120+/month. Owners get peace of mind, you keep your profits.
Can I set different prices for walks, pet sitting, and home visits?
Yes. Create different job types with different prices. A 30-minute walk might be CA$15, a home visit CA$20, overnight sitting CA$50. When you create a job, pick the service type and the price fills in automatically. Invoice at the end of the week or get paid on the spot with payment links.

Join hundreds of dog walkers and pet sitters who've ditched the spreadsheets and stopped the constant "is he okay?" messages.
