Kennel booking software built for animal welfare
Bookings, daily care and client billing in one system — not a calendar with care bolted on later.
Most kennel booking software starts with a reservation calendar. DatCog starts with what happens after the booking: feed rounds, medication sign-off, safe playgroups and staff coordination. Your desk and your floor share the same live data, and pet owners get a branded portal to request stays and view invoices.
Bookings that connect to daily care
When a dog checks in, DatCog captures kennel assignment, food type, medication schedule, playgroup and vaccinations in one flow. That same information flows to the Feed Schedule, Play View and Staff Portal — no retyping, no sticky notes.
- Booking calendar with day counts, recurring stays and waitlists
- Client portal: request a stay → manager approval queue
- Quick Check In / Check Out with payment recording
- Boarding, daycare and Pro Groom services with pricing tiers
- Booking confirmation and reminder emails from your business name
Why kennel managers switch to DatCog
Facilities that put animal welfare first need software that reflects how they actually work — not generic appointment scheduling repackaged for pets.
- Feed Schedule with AM/PM meals, med columns and kitchen print view
- Play View with relationship tracking and separation rules enforced
- Staff Portal PWA: clock in, complete feed and med tasks on the floor
- Roster builder, timesheets, payroll and MYOB export — no separate HR tool
- Branded invoice PDFs emailed to clients; owners view and print from the portal
Three portals, one kennel booking system
Managers run the dashboard. Staff use the mobile app for Feed, Play and Grooms. Pet owners request stays, update care details and pay invoices through a portal branded with your kennel name and logo.
