Pros

“I can’t fault pet manager, If I ever have a problem or can’t figure something out, I just send a message to the help team and within a day I have my answer.”

Michelle N.

Owner

“The ease of finding, recording new customers and invoicing make our lives so much easier.”

vikki d.

Manager

“It has allowed us to grow our business and focus more on the animals in our care and more communication time with clients and taken away the booking admin (juggling what availability we have) and payment portion of our work load.”

Diane M.

Manager

Pros

“I also like that clients can securely manage their credit cards for invoice payments, and I have the option to charge their card when needed.”

Rae D.

CEO

“Such efficient and friendly customer assistance, comprehensive options for my dog behaviour consulting business, group classes and private sessions, different locations, can message in the app, store customer info and notes, easily send out commonly used documents, have clients sign waivers and pay, all in this platform!”

Danika P.

Dog trainer and behaviour consultant

“My clients appreciate the self serve portal (I appreciate that it didn't cost extra to provide that service) that allows them to see their bookings, cancel and see their payment history”

Tasha S.

Owner, Trainer

Cons

“I find the Settings can be quite technically challenging, and I often have to ask the customer support to help make changes for me.”

Candy B.

Kennel Owner

“One drawback of Pet Manager is the lack of advanced analytics or reporting features, which could provide deeper insights into pet care trends and expenditure over time.”

Cleo S.

Director

“Managing multiple pets within the same account can be cumbersome, requiring separate profiles and entries for each pet rather than a unified view.”

Cleo S.

Director

Cons

“My customers and I get a little confused sometimes with package credits - available, used, scheduled etc.. as they are colored and worded differently on the client end.”

Caz G.

Owner

“Doesn't integrate well with my business as a behaviour consultant (no option for adjusting billing for other areas, clients found it hard to use, no zoom integration).While price point is good, since it is not operational for me, will use a different company when renewal comes up”

Barbara D.

Behaviour Consultant

“Credit issues on customer accounts, sometimes they are a bit glitchy.”

Rachael S.

Owner
