Trusted by Australian Pet Businesses
"Best in market software for Pet Care industries. Support is amazing and the software is the best on market for pet industries. I've worked in software and marketing prior to owning my own pet care business, and could tell immediately that Petboost was something unique."

"I am very excited and glad I went with them, the pricing structure makes sense and they are working very hard to make this the number one pet booking system in Australia. The customer service is out of this world, they focus on what animal businesses actually need and listen to their clients."
Sacha
My Dogs Daycare - QLD
"Petboost has truly been a saving grace! As a platform that's actually all-in-one, it has streamlined so much, saving me time and reducing costs. One of the biggest time-savers has been the automated invoicing feature. I no longer have to chase clients for late payments or spend hours preparing invoices manually."
Camille Hartnett
Trail Sniffers - NSW
"Just try it, you won't look back. The moment I turned Petboost on for my business, I never looked back. I haven't had a single missed payment or no-show. I no longer have to manually reconcile payments either. Now I can finally get time to do other things in my business instead of sitting in front of a screen for 'admin days'."

Design Philosophy
Less screen. More pets.
Every pixel designed to get you back to the animals faster. Six principles grounded in how pet businesses actually work.
Every Role. Any Device. No App Download.
Your groomer at the table, your handler in the play yard, your kennel attendant at 6am. Everyone gets the full Petboost experience on their phone, without downloading an app.
Groomer at the Table
Full access on any device
View pet profile, grooming preferences, clipper blade sizes, and care notes. Complete the appointment and trigger invoicing without leaving the dog.
Capture the finished groom, note a skin concern, or record behavioural observations. Instantly visible to the whole team and attached to the pet's profile.
Your team gets the full Petboost experience by adding to their home screen in 30 seconds. No app store downloads, no waiting for updates, zero storage space used.
Per-Resource Capacity: Not Daily Appointment Limits
Most systems use simple daily appointment limits. Petboost understands facility capacity. You could have 20 small dogs booked into a play area with a 6-dog limit. We prevent that.
- Set different capacities per resource (Play Area 1: 6 dogs, Play Area 2: 4 dogs)
- Equipment capacity (Grooming Station 1: 1 pet, Van A: 6 dogs)
- Real-time colour-coded timeline (green/yellow/red)
- Automatic overbooking prevention per resource
- Utilisation dashboards for revenue optimisation
