Customer & pet records

Owners, pets, breeds, vaccination dates, paperwork and meet-and-greet status — everything about every dog, kept neatly in one place.

Built by a working pet-business owner

I run a licensed home-boarding business in Yorkshire. Pawtal HQ is the software I wished existed when I started — built around real bookings, real invoices and real muddy paws, not boardroom features. It has handled over 280 real bookings and counting. When you email support, it's me who answers.

Automatic pricing

Nightly tiers, peak-season rates and multi-pet discounts calculated on every booking.

Secure logins & 2FA

Your data stays yours — protected with two-factor authentication, exportable whenever you want.

Questions, answered honestly

What's included in the free trial?

Everything — all features from both plans, unlimited bookings, for 14 days. No card needed, and nothing is ever charged automatically. If it's not for you, walk away and export your data.

How does billing work?

Standard is one simple payment of £149/year — no monthly billing. Premium is £499/year at the founding-member price, or £49.99/month if you'd rather spread the cost. No per-seat charges, no surprise add-ons.

Can I use my own branding?

Yes — your business name, logo and bank details go on your invoices and customer emails. Your customers see your brand, not ours.

Is my data secure?

Your account is protected with two-factor authentication, your data stays yours, and you can export it whenever you want — including during the trial.

What happens when the trial ends?

Nothing scary. Nothing is charged. Your data stays put, and you choose whether to pick a plan. If you don't, you keep read access and can still export everything.
