TIme To Pet is great! I should have signed up and started using it years ago.

PROS

When I started looking at various software, I wanted the text update capability as that's what our clients really like! TTP has that and I, as the administrator, always see the updates and responses. I also really like that client's can't reach out directly to our IC's (users). Although one of the best features is how it links all scheduled services to invoices; both for client's and for users. It's very easy for users to generate their invoices. I signed up for the WePay accunt as well. I resisted taking credit card payments for a long time, but this has made collecting funds super easy! I also like how there is the ADD A TIP option on every client invoice. Honestly, we rarely got tips except around the holidays and on some pet sitting jobs. Almost all the new clients we've signed up using TTP add tips! I also have grown to really appreciate that clients enter their information and pets information. This has helped all of us to ensure no one is missing anything. Before we took notes at the initial meet and greet. Often times as things changed, we never updated the notes. Having a set up where the cliebts see the same information as we do helps eliminate any confussion about what to do or not to do. I also really like the reporting options. I use Quickbooks but the reporting options are different. TTP has made several changes and upgrades since I started using it. They really listen to the feedback.

CONS

The cons of TTP may be more on my end than theirs. We were already so busy when we switched over. It took a long time to input all the data and client information. They started an Academy to help showcase and explain very important topics and features. Honestly, I just haven't had any spare time to take advantage of it. This is another reason to start using it before you are already insanely busy!!!!! I wish there were alternative ways to do schedule changes. They have a great bulk update feature but it just changes who's assigned or if the events are cancelled. This may be an option and detailed instructions in the Academy or Help section. Again, I've been too busy to explore a lot of these features. So the 4 star ratings may be more on my end than theirs. I'm also a self admintted person so others may be able to figure some things out 100 times faster than me!

Must Use: TimetoPet

Their personalized service is bar none. Quick turn around with questions we have. Thorough answers and solutions to issues. And they are very nice about it all.

PROS

TimetoPet is an awesome app. We are a medium size pet sitting and dog walking company servicing over 2k clients with over 40 staff. We could not provide our clients with the level of service we provide if it were not for TTP. Our clients comment positively about every aspect of the experience with this product from the 'report card' they receive after every visit to scheduling their services through their computer or their phone.

CONS

The only improvement i would encourage is a more robust self serve reporting feature. But I like reports and analytics more than most folks, so it could be just me.

Reasons for switching to Time To Pet

More robust app. More bells and whistles. Better service.

Doesn't Quite Match UP

PROS

I like that it is intended to make scheduling easier for pet care professionals. I also like that it keeps a good database of client information that is always accessible when out in the field.

CONS

It crashes A LOT and customer service is not that easy to deal with. I have grown frustrated with this software and went back to using a different platform that is much more user intuitive.

Reasons for switching to Time To Pet

I used Precise Petcare before trying Time To Pet and ultimately switched back over.

Best Pet Sitting Software Out There

I am 100% satisfied with Time to Pet and I recommend it to every pet sitter I know. I have used other products in the past and TTP is just far above exceeding any other programs out there. They are constantly taking feedback from their users and are always actively improving the product, adding amazing new features, and staying ahead of the competition. There's just no other software on the market that does with TTP does, nor do they have the TTP team backing it up.

PROS

TTP is a highly innovative pet sitting software that helps me run the day to day operations of a mid-size pet sitting company. With staff and quite a few clients, this software ensures nothing is ever missed and that our clients enjoy an app for themselves as well.

CONS

Due to the sheer number of customizations, the program can be daunting at first. However, it is completely worth the time to learn it. I had to think outside the box a bit to ensure the program could be tailored to the specific needs of my company which can be scary at first. TTP has never let me down and I've always been able to use the features and options to tailor the program to be exactly what I need. While there are a lot of documents explaining how to do things, more video instruction would be helpful however TTP's customer service is the absolute BEST. If you can't figure it out or can't find the answer you're looking for, their team is always knowledgeable and quick to respond.

Reason for choosing Time To Pet

TTP contained the greatest ability to tailor the program to my companies needs. It has such a variety of customizations, I feel like it was built just for my business. Coupled with their customer service, I took the leap and I am so glad I did. I couldn't imagine running my business with any other pet sitting software.

Reasons for switching to Time To Pet

Power Pet Sitter started to feel like it was a step behind. Updates were not made quickly, if at all. Complaints fell on deaf ears, and the system felt like it was from the 90's. When their system crashed several times and we were left without access to our pet care files, I knew it was time for a switch.

Thanks for the great review, Vanessa. We appreciate your support!
