Although we don't fall under the typical dog boarding or dog daycare, the versatility of Doggie Dashboard made it easy to keep track of appointments, finances, reports, clients and the pups\! > > **Cons**: Some of the options are only available for an upgraded membership, which makes sense. I chose to keep the basic membership and take extra steps or clicks to get the information I needed. > > We have used DoggieDashboard for about 8 years with ease. Our clients found the reminders, e-mails and message boards very professional and we appreciated the automatic reminders sent out for appointments. Whenever I had a question or couldn't find what I was looking to do, I would simply message Patrcik and he was always very responsive, professional and helped me find the tools I was looking for. The cost for this is VERY reasonable and in my humble opinion, well worth it. It has been an exceptional value for our business. ----- ### "DoggieDashboard: A hidden gem for home dog boarding" — 5.0/5 > **Verified Reviewer** | *25 October 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: \*Tailored for Overnight Boarding: Unlike many competitors, DoggieDashboard handles overnight stays with clarity and ease. \*Robust Feature Set: Includes invoicing, financial tracking, tax data management, reservations, calendaring, email communication, reports, and analytics. \*Exceptional Value: Offers more functionality than many expensive alternatives at a fraction of the cost. \*Simple Learning Curve: Despite its dated visuals, the system is intuitive and easy to navigate. > > **Cons**: Outdated Interface: Large fonts and clunky visuals may feel old-fashioned. Limited Design Customization: Not ideal for users who prioritize sleek, modern UI. > > I've been using DoggieDashboard since 2021 to manage my home dog boarding business, and it’s proven to be a reliable and cost-effective solution. While the interface may not win any design awards, the functionality far outweighs the aesthetics. For small pet care operations, especially those focused on overnight stays, DoggieDashboard delivers where many pricier platforms fall short. DoggieDashboard might not be the flashiest software on the market, but for home-based dog boarding businesses, it’s a powerhouse of practical features. If you value substance over style and want a tool that gets the job done without breaking the bank, this platform is well worth considering. ----- ### "Try it you will love it" — 5.0/5 > **Betsy** | *2 April 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: I have been using doggie dashboard for around 3 years now. We love it. My clients love it\! We have never had a use. Customer service is great\! We accidentally deleted one of our customers and her history and \[sensitive content hidden\] was able to find it and we restored her information. > > **Cons**: Wish I didn’t have to go in my recurring appointments to add reminders every month. Because sometimes we forget and our clients do too. > > It keeps my business on track I would be lost without it\! Can’t wait for the new features and payment processing. ----- ### "Easy to use" — 5.0/5 > **Leeandra** | *1 May 2026* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: Ease of use, customer support, great for dog boarding and staying organized, client management is very user friendly > > **Cons**: Wish it was better for walking/drop-in visits and short, reoccurring visits.

Highly recommend ----- ### "Great all round" — 5.0/5 > **Heather** | *14 April 2026* | Retail | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: All the features. Grooming, boarding, and training all in one. Price is great and they are always adding new features. > > **Cons**: Nothing at the moment that we dislike about doggie dashboard. We are a small facility so this works great. > > We have a doggie daycare, grooming, trying, boarding facility. This covers it all plus reports. Customer service is great too. Can’t beat the price and not like other programs that we have used that will go down for some reason at the worst times of the day. ----- Page: 1 / 2\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/346448/doggiedashboard?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/346448/doggiedashboard) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
