Founded in March 2020 in Bellingham, WA. Privately held, started and owned by independent pet care business owners — not by private equity, not by venture capital.\n\nWe answer to customers, not investors.\n\nAustin and Lindsay built Paw Partner because they run their own 130-dog-a-day facility, and every software they tried was either too expensive, too rigid, or built by people who had never worked a pet facility.\n\nWhat makes us different isn’t the feature list. It’s who we answer to. We run our own boarding and daycare facility, so we know what it costs to run one — which is why we charge what’s fair, not what we could squeeze you for. Support is staffed by people who’ve actually worked in the industry. They’ve cleaned a kennel. They know what your Friday morning looks like before a holiday weekend.","image":"https://gdm-catalog-fmapi-prod.imgix.net/ProductScreenshot/ef17a8a8-9435-4d41-a511-503631edfc29.png","url":"https://www.capterra.com.au/software/203713/paw-partner","@type":"SoftwareApplication","@id":"https://www.capterra.com.au/software/203713/paw-partner#software","applicationCategory":"BusinessApplication","publisher":{"@id":"https://www.capterra.com.au/#organization"},"aggregateRating":{"@type":"AggregateRating","bestRating":5,"ratingCount":60,"ratingValue":4.8},"offers":{"price":"44.99","@type":"Offer","priceCurrency":"USD"},"operatingSystem":"Cloud, Apple, Windows, Windows on premise, Chrome, Android, Platform ios, Platform ipad"},{"name":"BusyPaws","description":"Delight your clients with a modern booking process designed for your business, and enable your staff to spend more time with your clients and their pets by automating tasks like messaging and payments.\n\nMore than one million pet parents have engaged with pet care businesses operating on BusyPaws.
