Still running boarding on paper charts and spreadsheets?
The problems TailPro was built to remove
Every boarding business hits the same admin wall. Here’s what changes when TailPro takes it over.
Before TailPro
- Kennel availability tracked in a notebook or spreadsheet
- Medication times remembered, not recorded anywhere
- Check-in and check-out done on paper forms
- Owners chasing you by text for updates on their pet
- Invoices written up manually after the stay ends
With TailPro
- Live kennel and room occupancy grid, updated in real time
- Medication schedules attached to each pet's profile, with reminders
- Digital check-in and check-out, logged automatically with a timestamp
- Automated status updates and messaging sent straight to owners
- Payments and invoicing handled in TailPro, before or after the stay
Everything your boarding business needs
One system for bookings, kennels, pets, staff and payments
Built around how a boarding day actually runs — not a generic feature list.
Problem: double-booked kennels
Bookings & Occupancy
A booking calendar built around your actual kennels and rooms, not just dates — so availability reflects real capacity.
Outcome: Stop turning guests away by mistake, and fill quiet periods with confidence.
Problem: care details live in your head
Pet & Customer Records
Vaccination records, medical needs, feeding instructions and private notes stored on every pet's profile.
Outcome: Any staff member can deliver the right care, even if they've never met that pet before.
Problem: paper forms at drop-off and pickup
Check-In & Check-Out
Digital checklists confirm belongings, condition and instructions on arrival and departure — logged automatically.
Outcome: A clear, timestamped record of every stay, with nothing left to memory.
Problem: who's meant to feed kennel B4 today?
Staff & Task Management
Assign feeding, walking and medication tasks to staff, and see what's been completed across the whole kennel.
Outcome: Nothing gets missed on a busy day, even with a full house and a rota to match.
Problem: constant "how's my dog doing?" texts
Customer Communication
Automated booking confirmations, reminders and in-app messaging keep owners informed without you lifting a phone.
Outcome: Fewer interruptions during the day, and owners who feel looked after.
Problem: chasing payment after the stay
Payments & Invoicing
Take deposits at the time of booking, invoice automatically, and accept payment by card or other methods you choose.
Outcome: Get paid on time, and protect peak periods with a clear deposit policy.
Problem: every stay priced the same, regardless of demand
Pricing & Add-ons
Set breed-specific rates, peak-time pricing and optional add-ons like extra walks, playtime or grooming top-ups.
Outcome: Increase booking value without discounting the stays you're already fully booked for.
Problem: no clear view of how full you really are
Occupancy & Reporting
See occupancy rate, revenue and your busiest periods at a glance, so staffing and pricing decisions are not guesswork.
Outcome: Plan ahead for peak seasons instead of reacting to them.

How a stay moves through TailPro
From the first enquiry to the final invoice — one system, start to finish.
Step 1
Book & confirm the stay
Owner books online or you book for them — TailPro checks real kennel availability before confirming, and takes a deposit if you require one.
Step 2
Check in with digital records
Confirm belongings, feeding and medication details on arrival — everything staff need for the stay is on the pet's profile.
Step 3
Manage occupancy live
Track every kennel or room's status — occupied, available or being cleaned — and reassign staff tasks as the day changes.
Step 4
Check out & get paid
Close out the stay, send the final invoice automatically, and free up the kennel for its next booking — no manual paperwork.

Built by people who run a boarding business
Tested on a real, full boarding calendar — not a demo
“When we’re busy over the school holidays, the hardest thing used to be knowing exactly what capacity we had left. We were checking the diary, messages and booking information separately, and it was very easy to miss something. TailPro gives us one clear view of our bookings and availability, so we can see what’s coming in before agreeing to another stay. It has made those busy periods much easier to manage.”
Sarah Stevens – Owner, Boarding Business
We take dogs for short and longer stays, with demand increasing significantly during school holidays and bank holidays. TailPro gives us a much clearer picture of our occupancy while keeping the booking and customer information together.
Built from real occupancy pressure
The kennel-capacity view exists because overbooking a busy bank-holiday weekend is a real, expensive mistake — not a hypothetical one.
Medication tracking, not a generic notes field
Medication schedules are structured and time-based, built to be checked at a glance mid-shift, not buried in a free-text box.
Much less checking between systems
Booking details and customer information are together instead of being spread across messages and separate diaries.
