Directory.
Every boarding, daycare, grooming and training platform, with no paid rankings.
Gingr is used by the largest number of multi-location companies and franchise brands today. MyTime and FranPOS are built for franchise brands, and Goose, Kennel Connection, PawPartner, PetExec, DaySmart Pet and RunLoyal also support multi-location operations.
Feature checks come only from each vendor's own website (September 23, 2026): a feature is shown only when the vendor states it. Descriptions and starting prices come from each vendor's Capterra listing (snapshot taken September 23, 2026) where one exists. Listings compiled from vendor websites, Capterra, published reviews and industry coverage, September 2026. Pet care businesses only: veterinary software is out of scope (see Vet Software Hub). Services and pricing change often, so confirm with the vendor. If you're a vendor, claim your listing to correct it.
Tell us how you run your facility.
After we learn about how you operate your facility, we will provide a shortlist of software companies that match how you operate.

Seventeen features operators check in demos, plus graded scores for reporting, onboarding and data migration.
Who has what
Where only one platform offers a feature, the row says so. Stars only appear where two or more platforms have it and one clearly does it better.
Every platform has these. How well do they do them?
All three include reporting, onboarding help and data migration. The difference is quality, so these are graded rather than checked.
The short version

Short, practical guides written by operators. Read them before you sit through a demo.
Your data. Your tools.
With today's AI tools, an owner can build the report or workflow they need in an afternoon. The only thing that has to be true is that you can reach your own data.
What an API actually is
An API is a secure doorway into your management software. With the right key, your own tools (or an AI assistant) can read your data and act on it, the same way your staff do on screen.
Reservations, pets, vaccines, invoices, staff hours. Read access powers reports, dashboards and forecasts.
Book a stay, update a vaccine, add a note, send a message. Write access turns a report into a workflow that does the work.
You need both. Read-only access lets you see the problem. Read/write access lets you fix it automatically.
“Every day at 6am, text me tomorrow's check-ins. Flag anyone on medication and any pet whose Bordetella expires before pickup, and text those owners a link to upload their records.”
Illustrative example with made-up pets. Only possible on platforms that give owners read/write API access.

What “open” should mean
0 platforms offer an open read/write API today. 0 more are building one.
The tools operators want connected.
The add-ons pet care businesses run next to their management software, the data each one needs, and where a connection is live today.
Join the Open API Coalition.
One facility asking for API access is a feature request. Hundreds of locations asking together is a market signal software companies can't ignore.
