It is very intuitive which makes training new staff easy. The schedular has a great calendar with drag and drop capability. Everything is integrated so nothing falls through the cracks. Our customers have also enjoyed using the software. The software encourages customers to leave tips when making payments. Where we weren't getting many tips before we now get lots of tips. The software has more than paid for itself just in tips\! > > **Cons**: Since we pay our employees by the hour including travel time between visits we would like to see the tracking of travel time integrated more automatically into the software. > > Customer service is lightning fast\! The software was great at the beginning but the owners are not content with that. They keep making it better and better. I can't wait to see what additions they make to Time To Pet in the future. ----- ### "Best Pet Sitting Software in the Industry" — 5.0/5 > **Kim** | *8 November 2024* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Time To Pet saves me so much time running my business. It has a ton of features all in one system, so I don't have to switch between multiple platforms. I can keep track of client/pet data, communicate with clients and staff internally and do all of my invoicing in Time To Pet. Scheduling is a breeze and frees up time for me grow my business. I also love that Time To Pet is continuously adding new features. > > **Cons**: Time To Pet offers so many features, so there was a learning curve at first. Well worth the investment. > > The onboarding process with Time To Pet was seamless in helping me transition from another pet sitting software company. Their support team is always there to answer any questions. They treat their customers like family. ----- ### "Good programme but has some flaws that need to be addressed" — 3.0/5 > **Jennifer** | *2 November 2019* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 7.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of Scheduling for subcontractors/employees on the road via the app or in the office on the computer. As well as generating subcontractor/employee invoices/pay - very little effort on admin to complete these tasks. Customer Service is very quick and responsive. Invoicing to the client is effortless - unless you do not keep up with the scheduling\! > > **Cons**: Like most dog walking companies or businesses, we use sub-contractors - so basically self-employed individuals. These sub-contractors have access to information that I do consider confidential. I understand the basics of subcontractors seeing the client name, address, entry/alarm code - otherwise, they would not be able to perform the job they were hired to complete - but if I am having a conversation with a client who has asked questions, made comments, etc this information should not be able to be seen by the subcontractor or employees. Yet it is if that particular individual was assigned to that particular client. Imagine your surprise when a client sends you a note on the lack of performance or how anything negative about your subcontractor/employee and that said person was able to read the entire thread\! Con \#2 - We do pack walks that vary day by day - every client in the pack walk is in conflict with each other according to the schedule. It would appear the scheduling aspect of the software is set up for an individual at specific times. Not such a big deal as you just have to override it but a bit of a pain when doing mass scheduling. Con \#3 - When a client submits a request for service and they are a client that does not get invoiced you can not accept the request without generating an invoice. The option not to invoice is not present on client generated service requests. > > In the beginning, the response and answers from the owners were phenomenal -as they have grown they have added Customer Service personal and although responses are in a very timely manner they are just not as "warm and fuzzy" as they were when the responses came from the support staff. He made you feel your question or comment was most important to him - now they seem to be stock answers from the service department making you feel more like a number than a client. ----- ### "Happy that I made the switch" — 4.0/5 > **Akira** | *10 October 2024* | Individual & Family Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use, customer service, professional look, automation features > > **Cons**: Inability to customize visit reports by client and packages/templates can be clunky to get started with and take more time if your client doesn’t have a regular schedule > > Positive overall and happy with our switch ----- ### "A Game-changer for Growing Pet Care Businesses" — 5.0/5 > **Drae** | *17 September 2024* | Individual & Family Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: As the owner of AllCompanion Pet Care, Time To Pet has truly transformed the day-to-day operations of my business. It’s simplified, organized, and streamlined everything, giving me peace of mind knowing that all aspects of my business are centralized in one place. My clients love the transparency it offers, from clear invoicing to seamless scheduling and real-time communication through the portal and app. Both are incredibly user-friendly, making it easy for me to build strong relationships with clients. Some of my favorite features are the QuickBooks integration, the scheduling tool, and the report cards. Time To Pet is full of fantastic tools that have made my business more efficient and my clients happier\! > > **Cons**: It's honestly difficult to pinpoint any real cons with Time To Pet. After switching from another pet sitting/dog walking software, I've been able to find everything I need over time. They’ve clearly thought through a lot of the details. That said, I do wish there was an easier way to mark off holiday weeks. It would also be great to have a client-facing board where I could post updates and announcements, so clients can check for important information on their own. Currently, email is the primary method, and since some clients opt out of receiving emails, they may miss key updates. Aside from that (and even considering that), Time To Pet has been fantastic\! ----- Page: 1 / 12\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/203830/time-to-pet?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.ie/software/203830/time-to-pet) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
