It is the first software I use in my business and sometimes I have thought about changing it for all the reasons mentioned before.

In general, it is considered a good software for dog grooming, but its simplicity makes it inefficient for businesses that require extensive control over clients, sales reports, and management of expenses and inventory. Also, having to work directly from the web is a bit cumbersome, and from my experience, it is preferable to work with a desktop application. ...

Functionality

Pros:

very simple and easy to use software. Among the most significant advantages are reminder messages, although these cause confusion for customers since messages are sent to the same numbers and they get annoyed because they do not receive a response, so it would be very helpful if they fix that.

Cons:

it does not have the option to add client forms in PDF to archive them for each client and this is something very important since we must have a record of client consents and these must remain in the record of each client. The payment gateway only works with certain point of sale systems, which limits its use.

Reasons for choosing DaySmart Pet

I still think about switching to a desktop application or software that allows me to manage my business better unless they make new updates in Daysmart.

Vendor Response

Hi Milton – Thanks so much for the thoughtful feedback! We're happy to hear you find the software simple and easy to use. We really appreciate you sharing your experience, as it helps us continue to improve and prioritize what matters most to our users.

Reliable, All-in-One Software That Keeps Our Salon Running Smoothly

We use DaySmart Pet for our grooming salon and it’s been a huge help keeping everything organized. Client and pet profiles are easy to manage, online booking and reminders save us time, and integrated payments make checkout simple. There’s a small learning curve at first, but once it’s set up, it runs smoothly and is definitely worth it.

Pros:

What I like most about DaySmart Pet is how organized it keeps everything. Having client info, pet notes, appointment history, reminders, and payments all in one place makes running the salon so much easier. It saves time every single day and keeps us on track.

Cons:

The biggest downside is the initial learning curve, getting everything set up exactly how you want it can take some time. Some features aren’t as intuitive at first, and certain customizations require a little trial and error. BUT! They have an amazing messaging system that will answer your questions 24/7.

Vendor Response

Hi Hannah – Thank you for the thoughtful review! We're thrilled DaySmart Pet is helping keep your salon organized and saving you time every day.

After 10 years as a client the first 8 years were great, the last couple of years have resulted continuous glitches and often having the software not working which is blamed on your cell service.

Pros:

When properly working the software is geared for mobile grooming.

Cons:

Too many clicks to perform a simple task. Recent changes have made the software extremely unreliable and customer service (no live phone poodle anymore only email or chat that is returned their convenience) simply says “we are working on it”.

Hi Samantha – We're very sorry to hear about your recent experience and understand how frustrating that must be.

DaySmart experience review

I want to give a huge thank you to [sensitive content hidden] for their outstanding help in getting my DaySmart messaging program back up and running. They were professional, patient, and incredibly knowledgeable throughout the entire process. [sensitive content hidden] quickly identified the issues and explained everything clearly, while [sensitive content hidden] made sure every detail was handled so the system was restored smoothly. Their teamwork and dedication turned what could have been a stressful situation into a seamless experience. I truly appreciate their expertise and excellent customer service—DaySmart is lucky to have them on the team!

Pros:

What I like most about DaySmart Pet is the way it streamlines both pet and client management, while also offering an intuitive calendar and scheduling system. These features make it easy to stay organized, save time, and ensure that appointments run smoothly.

Cons:

Cons: One drawback I experienced with DaySmart Pet is the additional fee required for messaging. Unfortunately, I was not reimbursed for the year that the messaging feature was unavailable, which felt like a loss of value. In addition, I’ve noticed that other grooming software offers the ability to calculate pay with both state and federal taxes included, a feature that is currently missing from my account. I believe this would be a valuable improvement and update. Overall, I feel it would add fairness and value to the service if a refund or credit were provided for the time the messaging feature was unavailable.

8 years of great service! DaySmart helps me make ALOT of grooming $$$

We are a small Mobile Dog Grooming company with only 4 employees. We have been with DaySmart (used to be Pet123) since 2017. I've only had two major issues that I really had to raise cain about during all that time. One being my Buisness Website was down recently. I emailed them on Monday. The same day- John (CFO) responded and by Tuesday Emily (SVP) had let me know the problem had been fixed. Refunded me the time my site was down and made sure I was satisfied with the results. No company is perfect. But this company fulfills all my Mobile APP needs and work with me to fix any issues..... and thats why I stay.

Pros:

That I can use the app on my phones AND my laptop. User Friendly. All the different kinds of Reports that I can run to see where things are going well and where they arent. Automated reminders to my Clients so we have less "no shows". Very rarely is the system down. If I do have a problem -Customer support text doesnt have to take me all day. They understand I have to get back to work and will leave the text up in the app ( so I can check between dogs and respond) and send answers till I am satisfyed with the help and the problem is solved.

Cons:

I don't like that Customer Support went to an automated Bot system. That can be super frustrating when you just need to talk to a HUMAN to get answers. However, I have learned that you can request a person and one will call or text you back.

Reasons for choosing DaySmart Pet

Because its what my mentor used and what I was trained on

We have had a great experience with Daysmart overall--it greatly improved booking efficiency in our salon and helped us eliminate double bookings and decrease the amount of missed appointments we were experiencing.

Pros:

We love how easy it is to use and find information on all of our clients!

Cons:

We would love a feature that would tell us our next available 1 hr apt, 2 hr, apt, and weekend appointment. It would make running our business even easier! We would also love a better wait list design--we often have a large waitlist and the set up of the current wait list function does not work for our set up.

Reasons for choosing DaySmart Pet

We talked with other people in our industry and everyone had a good experience with it and we liked the pricing.

Reasons for switching to DaySmart Pet

We actually used StoreVantage and it was terrible and would go down all the time, we would have to schedule appointments by hand and we had double bookings happen constantly. It didn't do enough things for us to help us run our salon.

Pros:

Our company has been with Daysmart Pet for nearly 5 years. We are very happy with the service provided and the ease of use and efficiency with the software. It has helped us immensely manage our very busy schedule. All of the techs I've worked with at DSP have always gone above and beyond to ensure the most positive customer experience! In fact, recently they've implemented live phone calls support (instead of just the live chat) which has been extremely helpful when trying to tackle technical questions or issues. I cannot say enough good things about DSP!

Cons:

I was glad to see DSP implement live support!! I would like to see minor modifications to the software such as including the year of the appt as we are already booking into 2027! Also I would like to see alternative email campaigns that can be only sent to active customers. Lastly, I would like to see the reminder services available to also send to customers 14 days before the appt date instead of just 7 days.
