Time To Pet

All-in-one pet care software for pet sitting, walking, daycare and boarding businesses

Facts on this page checked on

Partly published 14 days

Time To Pet is business management software for pet sitting, dog walking, cat sitting, pooper-scooper, mobile grooming, pet boarding, and dog daycare businesses, covering scheduling, invoicing and payments, client and staff messaging, and staff management. It is sold as two separate products — In-Home (pet sitting, dog walking, mobile grooming) and Facility (boarding, daycare, grooming) — each with its own pricing, plus a bundle option for businesses that run both.

Pricing

Time To Pet plans as published at www.timetopet.com
Plan Price Includes Checked
Lite (Monthly) $25/month [src] One-person companies just starting out, or wanting a basic tool for scheduling and invoicing. Cannot add staff (upgrade to Solo is required), and does not include text messaging.
Lite (Annual) $250/year [src] Same Lite plan, billed annually (10 months' price for 12 months of access).
Solo (Monthly) $50/month [src]
Minimum: For one active user — the account owner.
 A growing, one-person business wanting advanced functionality: video updates, integrations, email marketing, and text messaging.
Solo (Annual) $500/year [src] Same Solo plan, billed annually (10 months' price for 12 months of access).
Team $40/month [src]
Minimum: $40/month base plus $16/month per active staff member for staff 1-25 (5 staff = $40 + 5×$16 = $120/month via the pricing calculator; a separate Time To Pet billing help article gives a matching worked example: 3 active users = $88/month). No annual option for this plan.
 For a pet care business with staff members: adds time off, permissions, pay reports, and text messaging beyond Solo. An "active staff member" is any staff member or trainee with at least one scheduled or completed event in the billing period; office managers and admins always count as active, even with no events.
Large Team contact us [src] For teams over 25 active staff members; the pricing page routes this tier to "contact our team for custom pricing and additional onboarding support." Time To Pet's own Billing & Subscription help article instead describes a continuing formula for this range — $5/month per active user for the 26th user and beyond, on top of the same $40 base and $16/user for users 1-25 — with no mention of a custom quote. The two vendor pages disagree; this file records the pricing page's contact-sales framing since that is the designated pricing source.
Facility $79/month [src]
Minimum: Boarding and daycare landing pages state plans "start at $79/month and scale with your facility size" / "scale with your business size," but no higher tier is published on the pricing page itself.
 For a pet care facility offering daycare, boarding, or (per Time To Pet's billing help article) grooming services.
Bundle (In-Home + Facility) contact us [src] For a business that operates both a pet care facility and in-home services (pet sitting or dog walking). The vendor directs bundle inquiries to its team rather than publishing a rate.
