    Action Center

The front desk knows who's coming and who's cleared

Roll Call lists every dog booked today, who's already in, and who still needs a meal logged. Dogs with an expired vaccine or an unsigned agreement are flagged before they walk through the door, not after.

  • Check in at the desk or let families scan in at an entrance kiosk
  • Vaccine records uploaded by parents, reviewed by staff
  • Agreements signed on the phone, versioned and on file

The kennel works from cards that match the dog's record

Kennel cards print straight from the dog's record: feeding plan, medications, care notes and the owner's phone number. Shift Queue turns each day's meals, meds and pickups into tasks with a name next to them.

  • Medical alerts printed in red at the top of the card
  • Missed tasks are flagged as urgent
  • Hand a task over to the next shift

Pet parents get an app with everything they keep texting you for

Families book stays and daycare, pay invoices, buy packages, sign agreements and upload vaccine records from their phone. They see today's visit as it happens and a private photo feed only your families can see.

  • Booking with live room availability and member pricing
  • Packages, memberships, reward points and referral codes
  • A private feed for photos, stories and polls, reviewed by your staff

How setup works, from the first call to go-live

The fair questions, answered

“Switching sounds painful.”

We do the setup and the move. You review it before your team uses it, and you can keep your old system running alongside until you're happy.

“My staff won’t learn another system.”

The screens match the jobs they already do. Try them yourself in the demo, signed in as the front desk.

“What if something breaks on a Saturday?”

We host and watch it for you. You'll have a direct line to the people who built it.

“Is it really mine?”

It's your brand, your own database and your own Stripe, text and email accounts. Your records belong to your business.

Questions owners ask us

What exactly do I get?

Your own copy of Tendstay with your business name, logo, colours and wording, on its own web address and with its own private database. Your team uses it at the front desk, in the kennel and on tablets. Pet parents use it on their phones. We set it up, host it and keep it running.

Is it an app my customers download from the App Store?

No download needed. It's an installable web app: parents open your link, sign in, and can add it to their home screen so it opens like any other app. Staff can do the same on a front-desk tablet or an entrance iPad.

Can you move my customers and pets over from my current software?

Usually, yes. Most booking systems can export customers, pets and vaccine dates to a spreadsheet. On the call we'll look at what yours can export and tell you exactly what can come across before you commit to anything.

Who hosts it, and who owns the data?

We host and maintain it for you. Every business gets its own separate database; your customer and pet records belong to your business and are never shared with other Tendstay customers.

How do payments work?

Through your own Stripe account. Parents can pay invoices, buy packages and start memberships from their phones; your front desk can charge a saved card at pickup and issue refunds. The money goes straight to your Stripe account. Card details are handled by Stripe, never stored in the app.

Can we text and email parents from it?

Yes, from your own text number (Twilio) and your own email domain. Booking confirmations, reminders and staff messages all go out under your name, and parents who opt out aren't texted again. Replies sent by text don't show up in the app yet; they go to your business number.

What does the AI assistant do?

It answers questions from parents and staff using your own policies and the person's own bookings: "What time is Saturday pickup?", "Is Bella ready for drop-off?". It quotes prices from your own price list, and it can start a booking request that your staff then confirm. It never confirms a booking or takes a payment on its own. You can turn it off.

Can it be changed to fit how we work?

Your services, prices, rooms, hours, closures, taxes and the words you use (what you call your membership, your photo feed, your reward points) are all settings. Features you don't offer can be switched off. If you need something new, we'll tell you what it would take.

Is our customers' information safe?

Each business runs on its own database. Every table has access rules, so a parent can only ever see their own family's dogs, bookings and invoices, and staff see only what their role allows. Card payments are handled by Stripe.

What is the demo?

A full working copy of the app under our own Tendstay brand, filled with made-up families and dogs. You can sign in as an owner, a front-desk lead, a groomer or a pet parent and click anything. Payments, texts and emails are simulated, and the data resets every night.

How much does it cost?

It depends on how many locations you have and how much setup you need, so we quote each business. Book a call and you'll get a clear quote with no obligation.

See your day in it before you decide anything.

Open the demo and sign in as a front-desk lead, a manager or a pet parent. When you're ready, book a call and we'll show you what your version would look like.
