The Problem

Where Pet Owners Drop Off Between the Search and the Visit

Owners book pet care on their phones, often after hours. If your site can't take the booking and the paperwork, they find a business that can.

  1. 01 · Phone-only booking

    Owners can't reach you while your team is busy with pets.

    Owners pick open slots in the booking tool you already run.

  2. 02 · Missing vaccine records

    Vaccine records show up by text on the morning of the visit.

    Intake forms collect records at booking, so staff see gaps before drop-off.

  3. 03 · Empty grooming slots

    Booked slots go empty when owners forget or cancel late.

    Deposits and cancellation rules hold each slot, and reminders go out before visits.

  4. 04 · Clinic phone queue

    Refill and wellness calls bury the urgent ones.

    Screened online booking and a pharmacy storefront take routine requests off the phones.

A new puppy owner needs a first groom and a daycare trial before a work trip. Your site lists services but no prices, and booking means calling during hours when your team has dogs on the table. They send an Instagram message, wait, then book a competitor whose site took the deposit and the vaccine records in one visit. Clinics see the same pattern when phones fill with refill requests and wellness bookings the website could have taken.

We start with the first booking: the service, the price, the time, and the paperwork, tested from a phone. Your booking tool stays the system of record, whether that's MoeGo, Gingr, Time To Pet, or Vetstoria with your practice software. We connect it to a site that shows prices and takes deposits, and we add intake forms that collect vaccine records before drop-off. Clinics get screened booking and a branded pharmacy for refills. A branded app comes last, once regulars would open it between visits.

  • Booking in the tool you run

    Grooms, daycare days, and sitting visits booked through MoeGo, Gingr, or Time To Pet from your own site.

  • Records in before drop-off

    Intake forms collect vaccine records, vet contacts, and behavior notes before the first visit.

  • Clinic visits and refills online

    Vetstoria booking that screens for emergencies, plus a branded pharmacy for refill requests.

Our Services

Veterinary Software Development and Pet Business Booking Sites

Three services cover most pet businesses and clinics: pet business sites, veterinary clinic sites, and booking builds for rules your tool can't handle. Branded apps sit on top when owners need one.

Who We Build For

Setups for Groomers, Daycares, Clinics, Stores, and Startups

A mobile groomer and an animal hospital book very different visits. Find your business type to see which services fit and when they go live.

The stack we usually build

4 services, one project plan

All services

  1. Website

    Pet Business Website Design

    Price lists by size and coat, before-and-after galleries, and MoeGo booking.

  2. Deposits

    Appointment Booking Website Development

    Deposits, no-show fees, and text reminders when you don't run MoeGo.

  3. Owner questions

    AI Chatbot Development Services

    Answers on prices, breed fees, and vaccine rules while your team grooms.

  4. New client offers

    Landing Page Design Services

    Offer pages for first grooms, with GA4 and ad pixel tracking.

Book grooms while your hands are full

Your team can't answer the phone with a dog on the table, so owners book whoever lets them pick a slot online. You need prices by size and coat, booking in your grooming software, and deposits that protect each slot.

Grooming salons and mobile groomers: Clients text to ask about Saturday openings while your team has a dog on the table, and the replies go out after the slot is gone.

  • Prices shown by size and coat
  • Grooms booked while you work
  • Deposits that protect each slot
Plan this setupTypical timeline: 3 to 6 weeks

Our Process

The Path From Booking Test to Launch Day

You see the scope and a fixed price before any build begins. Every booking, deposit, and record upload is tested with sample pets before owners use it.

  1. We book a groom, a daycare day, or a vet visit from a phone, the way an owner would at night. You get a short list of where owners stall and which records go missing.

Projects We've Built

Pet Care Apps and Booking Builds We've Shipped

Two pet care apps come first: TailWag, with clinic search, slot booking, grooming, and adoption, and Petopia, with vet booking, adoption, and nearby pets on a map. Two doctor booking apps follow, built around availability and appointment slots.

What Our Clients Say

What Clients Say After Launch

Feedback from clients after we built their sites, booking flows, and apps.

We had a pretty specific idea of what we wanted our website to become, but I wasn’t sure how easily we could explain all of it to a development team. There were quite a few moving parts, and we were working toward a deadline, so I expected a few things to get lost along the way. That never really happened. They understood what we were trying to achieve, kept us updated throughout the process, and got everything ready within the agreed timeline. The final site feels much easier to navigate, works beautifully on mobile, and is noticeably smoother for our customers. It was a huge relief seeing the original idea actually turn into the website we had in mind.

Not a fit

  • Below $950

    Your budget is below $950. Your booking tool's own client portal will serve you until online bookings outgrow it.

  • Replacing your PIMS

    You want ezyVet or Cornerstone replaced with custom practice software. We connect your site to the PIMS you run instead of rebuilding it.

  • Video consult platform

    You need a video consult platform for vets built from scratch. That's a startup product, so our MVP development service is a better starting point than these builds.

  • Social media only

    You only want Instagram posts and ads for your salon or daycare. These builds cover booking, records, and apps, not social media management.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers on prices, timelines, vet software, MoeGo and Gingr, and when a branded pet app is worth building.

  • Booking sites start at $950, a vet clinic starter site at $1,150, and a pet service website at $1,200. The full site with deposits and vaccine forms, plus a clickable app prototype, costs $3,800. A branded iOS and Android app on that site, with deposits paid in the app, costs $7,950 in total. Booking tool, practice software, and app store fees are billed to you.

  • A booking site or pet service website takes 2 to 3 weeks, and a clinic starter site 3 to 5. Sites with deposits and intake forms take 3 to 5 weeks, and an animal hospital site 5 to 7. A branded app reaches the stores 8 to 18 weeks after work starts, depending on its features.

  • Most clinics run practice management software, called a PIMS, such as ezyVet, IDEXX Cornerstone, IDEXX Neo, or Covetrus AVImark. Around it sit online booking like Vetstoria, a pharmacy storefront such as Covetrus vRxPro, payments, and reminder messages. Veterinary software development usually connects those tools to the clinic's website instead of replacing the PIMS.

  • A pet app is a mobile app that owners use to book and manage care for their animals. It covers grooms, daycare days, walks, or vet visits. Most show each pet's profile, upcoming bookings, and records in one place. Some serve one business under its own brand, while marketplace apps connect owners with many sitters or groomers. In veterinary app development, the same app adds visit reminders and refill requests.

  • Owners sign in, add their pets, and pick a service and time. The app checks availability in the business's booking system, takes a deposit when one is required, and sends push reminders before the visit. Staff manage bookings from an admin panel, so the app and the front desk see one schedule. As a pet grooming app development company, we often start with rebooking, since grooming clients return on a schedule.

  • It should book by service and pet size, hold deposits against no-shows, store breed and coat notes, and send reminders. Tools like MoeGo handle that, and we connect your site to the one you run. Pet grooming app development makes sense once clients rebook on a set schedule and would open your own app between grooms.

  • Dog daycare software should handle bookings by day or package, vaccination records, temperament notes, check-in, and payments. Gingr is one tool built for daycares and boarding, and its customer portal accepts record uploads. We connect your site's booking and intake forms to it, so records arrive before the first visit and staff see gaps early.

  • It makes sense when owners would open it between visits. Think of daycare regulars booking weekly, grooming clients on a set schedule, or a startup connecting owners with sitters. As a pet care mobile app development company, we build iOS and Android from one codebase, with sign-in, push reminders, and an admin panel. If your booking tool's client portal already covers your case, we'll tell you before we quote.

  • Yes. Our sites connect the booking tool you already run, such as MoeGo, Gingr, or Time To Pet, so slots and clients stay in one system. Clinics book through Vetstoria, which works natively with ezyVet, IDEXX Cornerstone, IDEXX Neo, and Covetrus AVImark. On ezyVet it also reads live availability and creates client records for new owners.

  • Your business does. Clients, pets, and bookings stay in your booking tool or practice software, and payments run through your own Stripe or Square account. The app is published under your developer accounts, and you get the code and admin logins at handover. Support runs 30 days on starter builds, 45 days on sites with deposits, 60 on hospital sites, and 30 days after an app release.
