Thanks \[sensitive content hidden\] > > **Cons**: Honestly, it's hard to find anything negative to say, everytime I had a concern or question, they were answered prompty and with a solution provided. \[sensitive content hidden\] goes above and beyond for his customers. > > I’ve been a pet sitter/boarder/walker for a while now and originally started out on Rover. I got pretty turned off by the lack of support, the high fees, and just feeling like I wasn’t in control of my own business. I started looking for something better—and that’s when I found Scritches. This platform really does tick all the boxes for me. It’s simple to use, makes me feel like I’m in charge of my business again, and actually supports independent sitters instead of making things harder (like deleting your account forever the second a client suggests going off app :/) The biggest highlight for me is \[sensitive content hidden\]. He’s so responsive and open to feedback—it feels amazing to know that questions and ideas are actually heard and acted on. That kind of personal connection makes a huge difference, and it gives me so much confidence that Scritches will only keep getting better over time. Not to mention, it's really fairly priced for the features\! I love that 20% of my hard earned money doesn't go to an app that does nothing for me beyond the initial contact with new clients. I’m genuinely excited to be part of this from the start and to support a platform that actually cares about sitters. Can’t wait to see what features come next\! ----- ### "Best New Software\!" — 5.0/5 > **Jessica** | *4 November 2025* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Affordability, great customer support and feedback, easy to use on both sides, loving the report cards, and the booking page is a nice bonus. > > **Cons**: It was a bit to get used to at first but once you play around with everything, its easy to figure out. Only issue I have come across is figuring out how to make sure clients are able to view their invoices. > > I have been apart of the beta team since the beginning and I'm amazed at how far the software has come with updates and the layout of everything. I was using Pet Sitter Dashboard prior which is similar to TTP and clearly outdated with customer support lacking along with invoicing issues. I'm very happy with my decision with switching and looking forward to seeing this software improve even more. If you want to ditch an outdated software, highly recommend going with Scritches\! ----- ### "Great for Calendar Management\!\!" — 5.0/5 > **Alexis** | *6 February 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Calander app is really in depth and helps me keep way better track of my clients and time. It makes it easier to manage bookings as i dont have to over-clutter my texts as much with so many people requesting bookings through text, Invoices help me gauge what my income will be like, and help make it a bit easier to track what ive made this year. > > **Cons**: A lot of menus sometimes mean the stuff im looking for gets buried, and the menus can get complex at times, i wish i could have a list version for the multiple pet pricing as scrolling through huge boxes makes me lose my place sometimes. And I dont like that reviews and sync is behind a huge paywall as sometimes i cant reach that goal :( > > Overall scritches has made my job so much easier for note taking, calendar, booking needs and everything else. Its an app I've been trying to find for a while but couldn't until recently. I think ill be using it for years to come and truly believe in them 🥰 ----- ### "Professional, attractive Pet Sitting software for the win\!" — 5.0/5 > **Shannon** | *16 January 2026* | Individual & Family Services | Recommendation rating: 3.0/10 > > **Pros**: I love the personal client support, the appearance of the software and ease of use for my clients. The client reports for their pets is what really "sold" me, absolutely adorable. > > **Cons**: It's in Beta so it's still improving. The link to have my clients sign up is long, even though there's a QR code , many of my clients are older and don't quite get the codes. > > Fantastic. I have been with a other pet sitting for software for almost ten years and switched to Scritches. I love the calendar option where I can block dates and times, the client reports are adorable and all in all its very easy to use. The admin takes your requests for changes seriously and is constantly tweaking it to make it even better. I give them two paws up\! ----- ### "Fits my business perfectly & my clients love it" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *27 October 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The booking system is the best I’ve seen. I used to piece things together with Square appointments, Calendly, and a few random forms to collect pet info and inquiries, but none of it felt made for sitters. Scritches on the other hand matches my whole process in one place, and the experience feels easy. I’ve always wanted my booking flow to feel as simple for clients as Rover makes it, but still under my own business, and that's finally possible. My clients also love it. I try to maintain a clean, modern, and well designed feel to my brand, and Scritches matches that perfectly. Cost wise: when you’re doing everything yourself and you’re counting every dollar, it matters. It’s refreshing to have something that doesn’t feel overpriced or packed with features I’ll never use. > > **Cons**: There are a couple of small things I want to call out. For example, I’d like somewhat more flexibility over how booking notifications get sent to clients (email vs text vs nothing). Also, since the app is newer, certain things like a well documented Help Center are still a work in progress. > > I’ve been running my own little pet sitting service for a couple years now, and switching to Scritches has been one of the better moves I’ve made. The interface feels clean and fresh. I’ve tried other systems and they all felt like someone built them in 2010. With Scritches I find myself clicking around naturally, instead of always thinking “ugh where is that button”. It doesn’t feel like I need a manual just to check my schedule or configure my business. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/1074387/Scritches?page=2) ## Links - [View on Capterra](https://www.capterra.com.au/software/1074387/Scritches) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AE | | | en-AU | | | en-CA | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-IL | | | en-IN | | | en-NZ | | | en-SG | | | en-ZA | | ----- ## Structured Data
