The problem

Every other platform was built by developers.
This one was built by someone who did the job.

What you’re dealing with now

List-based scheduling that doesn’t scale

Every other platform shows bookings as a list. At 10+ sitters you’re constantly scrolling, missing conflicts, and manually cross-referencing.

Manual sitter assignment eating your day

Matching requests to sitters based on location, availability, history, and capability — done manually, every time, for every booking.

Unread messages with real consequences

At 40+ sitters you cannot read every message thread. Important updates about injuries, late arrivals, and booking changes get missed.

Paying for three tools to do one job

Scheduling software plus payment processor plus communication tools — separate bills, separate logins, no integration.

What PetBizApp does instead

Visual sitter calendar with drag and drop

Week view with sitters as columns, bookings as colour-coded blocks. Reassign with a drag. See your entire operation at a glance.

Auto-assignment engine

Matches booking requests to the right sitter automatically. Client history, location, availability, welfare priority. Admin confirms with one click.

AI message monitoring

Reads every sitter-client thread and flags only the messages that need your attention. Medical concerns, late arrivals, booking changes — nothing slips through.

Everything in one platform

Bookings, sitter management, client communication, invoicing, and reporting — one login, one bill, one source of truth.

What makes it different

Four things no other
pet platform has.

02

Auto-assignment engine

Stops the single biggest time drain in pet sitting admin. Matches booking requests to the right sitter automatically based on client history, location, availability, welfare priority, and capability.

AI built in — not bolted on

AI visit narratives written in the sitter’s voice. AI message monitoring that reads every sitter-client thread and flags only the messages that need admin attention. At 40+ sitters you cannot read every message. PetBizApp reads them for you.

True AI integration

Built by an operator, not a developer

Tony Bacon ran Scritches Pet Services in Arizona — ~$400k revenue, 40+ independent contractors — before building PetBizApp to replace Time To Pet. PetBizApp is Scritches’ own operating system. Scritches is customer zero. Every feature exists because a real operator needed it.

Proven in production

Six modules

Use only what your
business needs.

Each module is purpose-built for its service type. Start with pet sitting. Add modules as your business grows — or as we build them.

Scritches saves $9,000+ a year switching to PetBizApp.

We ran the numbers on our own business before building this. The savings are real — and that’s before factoring in the admin hours you get back.

Time To Pet (annual) $3,600
Stripe processing fees (annual) $5,400+
Annual saving with PetBizApp + Stax $9,000+

Founder

“I built PetBizApp because I couldn’t find software that understood what it’s actually like to manage 40+ sitters, hundreds of clients, and thousands of bookings a month. So I built it myself — and Scritches runs on it.”
