You have different packages to choose from and you have payroll options etc available for you 24/7 you dont have to worry about appointments since you will automatically receive reminders for you upcoming events > > **Cons**: No cons about this platform, it's easy to use. Easy to set payroll and no more long nights typing numbers down this does it al for you > > Great absolutely great this is a great way to make sure you have all the appointments and your services set up for your next pet friendly clientele ----- ### "I love Daysmart Pet\!" — 5.0/5 > **Bailey** | *25 March 2026* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: Every question I have had is met with understanding and a wonderful answer\! There is never annoyance or impatience with my questions and they are always willing to help me with anything I needed\! > > **Cons**: I love everything about Daysmart Pet. The only thing I dislike is when it comes to checking out clients I wish there was an option to text them a receipt. It would make things more accessible\! > > Wonderful and great\! Daysmart Pet is the only software program I will use in my grooming business\! They make things simple and user friendly while still making it easy for customers to navigate. ----- ### "Do not recommend" — 2.0/5 > **Samanntha** | *18 January 2025* | Consumer Services | Recommendation rating: 1.0/10 > > **Pros**: When properly working the software is geared for mobile grooming. > > **Cons**: Too many clicks to perform a simple task. Recent changes have made the software extremely unreliable and customer service (no live phone poodle anymore only email or chat that is returned their convenience) simply says “we are working on it”. > > After 10 years as a client the first 8 years were great, the last couple of years have resulted continuous glitches and often having the software not working which is blamed on your cell service. ----- ### "Thank you \[sensitive content hidden\]\!" — 5.0/5 > **Barry** | *18 February 2026* | Veterinary | Recommendation rating: 9.0/10 > > **Pros**: I’ve had the software for at least 10 years but never really needed or wanted to deal changes. I’m so happy I did. Dan answered each and every question I had\! Was such a game changer\! Thank you \[sensitive content hidden\]\! > > **Cons**: Cloud usage. I can access my account from anywhere, anytime. Customer service is awesome\! So happy I’ve invested\! > > I own software and never have haves issue except here and there with outages but it’s expected. Today \[sensitive content hidden\] went above and beyond to get me back up and running and how to use my setting. ----- ### "Comprehensive and Scalable Solution for Modern Pet Grooming" — 5.0/5 > **Pedro Pablo José** | *26 March 2026* | Computer Software | Recommendation rating: 10.0/10 > > **Pros**: The most impressive aspect of DaySmart Pet is its seamless integration of appointment scheduling and client management. The interface is intuitive, which makes it easy to train new staff members quickly. Additionally, the automated reminders have significantly reduced our no-show rates, and the ability to manage everything from a centralized dashboard—including marketing and reporting—is a game-changer for daily operations. > > **Cons**: While the software is very robust, the initial setup and customization of specific service tiers can take some time to perfect. It would also be great to see even more flexibility in the mobile app's offline capabilities for areas where the internet connection might be unstable, though the web version remains excellent. > > My experience has been highly positive. DaySmart Pet is clearly designed with the specific needs of the grooming industry in mind. It has allowed us to transition from manual or fragmented tracking to a professional, digital system that improves both the client experience and our internal efficiency. It is a reliable partner for any grooming business looking to scale and organize its workflow effectively. ----- Page: 1 / 10\ Next: [Next page](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/92113/DaySmart-Pet?page=2) ## Links - [View on SoftwareAdvice](https://www.softwareadvice.co.nz/software/92113/DaySmart-Pet) ## This page is available in the following languages | Locale | URL | | en | | | en-AU | | | en-GB | | | en-IE | | | en-NZ | | ----- ## Structured Data
