Run a calmer business.
Petboard is the quietly powerful platform for catteries and kennels. Easy enough to set up in an evening, powerful enough to run the whole business.
- First month free
- Nothing to pay until it ends
- Change or cancel any time
Built here, supported here, sterling-first.
Your data lives in EU data centres, with EU subprocessors.
Set up your services, switch your booking page on, take a booking.
A calmer day, start to finish.
From the first kettle to lock-up, here's Petboard through an ordinary day, not a feature list.
The whole day, before the kettle's boiled.
Who's arriving, who's leaving, who's already in: one glance. No flicking back through a paper diary.
A note home. One less worried owner.
Snap a photo, add a line. It lands in the owner's own portal, so you get fewer "how's she doing?" texts.
A deposit lands. No awkward chase.
Deposits and bank payments go straight to your own GoCardless account. You never have the cash-at-pickup conversation again.
Lock up. You always know how you're doing.
Occupancy, revenue, your best customers: a glance on the way out, not a spreadsheet marathon come year end.
One place for the whole business.
No more juggling a diary, a card machine, a spreadsheet and a group chat. Here's the lot, grouped by the job it's doing.

Try it properly, on us.
Set up your real services, take real bookings and see how Petboard fits the way you work. You've got a whole month before you pay a penny.
Use it for real
Every feature on the plan you pick, with your own customers and bookings. Not a cut-down demo.
Nothing to pay for a month
You set up your Direct Debit when you sign up, but nothing is taken until your free month ends. We'll email you before it does.
Change or cancel easily
Switch plans or cancel from your account. Cancel any time before your free month ends and you won't pay anything.
One free month per business. It covers your plan's price; on Pro, the usual fee on online payments still applies.
Built by people who watched a cattery run on paper.
The booking diary, the index cards, the Word-document invoices with the date typed over: we watched someone close to us do it all by hand. Petboard is the tool we wished we could hand them.
It's made by Freaky Turtle, a small UK company, so you talk to the people who built it, not a call centre. Your money goes through your own GoCardless account, your data lives in EU data centres, and the support replies come from a person.
Got a question?
Once you're a customer, support lives inside the app. Keep an eye on the help icon. If you're not yet, drop us a line and we'll get back to you the same business day.
Real humans, same business day Mon–Fri. Send screenshots, send context, ask anything.
The next calm Friday
starts here.
Set up your services, switch on your booking page, and let the spreadsheet panic slowly evaporate. Your first month is on us.
