Every reservation lands on a run, not a sticky note.

Book by night with live capacity per run, suite and size group. Overlapping stays, blocked-off maintenance and family dogs sharing a kennel all show on the same board, so you never sell a space twice.

Check-in takes a minute, not a clipboard.

Vaccination status, feeding notes, medications and belongings are already on the record when the owner walks in. One tap moves a pet from arriving to in-house, and check-out closes the stay with the balance ready.

The stay bills itself.

Nightly rates, extra play, baths and late pickups build the invoice as the stay happens. Take a deposit at booking, charge the card on file at check-out, and email the receipt automatically.

Questions from kennel owners

Does JAP work for a small boarding kennel?
That's mostly who uses it. If you've got six runs and a whiteboard, JAP replaces the whiteboard: you set up your runs and suites the way they actually exist, and the board shows what's free tonight. There's no minimum size and nothing to install.
Can I stop double-booking a run?
Yes, and you don't have to think about it. A run that's occupied can't be booked again for those dates, full stop. If someone tries, JAP says no and offers the runs that are actually open.
How do deposits and extra nights get billed?
Take a deposit when the reservation is made, add extras like medication or a bath as the stay goes on, and everything lands on one invoice at check-out. Clients pay by card through Stripe; the money goes to your Stripe account, not ours.
What happens if a dog's vaccinations have expired?
The pet gets flagged before the stay, and you'll see it on the board and at check-in. You can still take the booking (some owners bring the paperwork on the day), but nobody has to remember to check.
How much does boarding software from JAP cost?
Free to start with 3 active pets and 5 reservations a month, then $20, $40 or $60 a month based on how many staff accounts you need. Every plan includes boarding, records, invoicing and payments; higher plans add seats, deeper Buddy AI automation and more productivity tools.
