A layer, not a migration project

Keep the back office you know. Upgrade what clients see.

CatteryStay is intentionally lightweight. It does not try to replace every old cattery management tool. It gives small shops the modern public and owner-facing experience those tools usually miss.

Use it as the client-experience layer: website, enquiry intake, owner updates, photo uploads, and enough care records to keep daily communication trustworthy.

01

Your existing system stays in place

Keep the calendar, paper process, spreadsheet, or legacy software that already runs your business.

02

CatteryStay handles the front office

Publish a polished website, collect booking requests, and keep owner communication in one warm web flow.

03

Pet owners feel looked after

They find you on Google, request a stay, and receive calm private updates without a login.

What the product layer includes

Everything owners touch, designed for a real boarding stay.

The homepage now shows the actual wedge: the public website, request intake, Magic Link updates, and lightweight care records that support better client communication.

Booking requests

Turn vague enquiries into structured requests.

Owners submit dates, cat details, diet, medication, behaviour notes, vaccination notes, and contact info before your team replies.

  • Reduce back-and-forth before you know whether a stay is possible.
  • Review requests in one queue instead of hunting through DMs and email.
  • Convert accepted requests into the records your team needs for the stay.

Magic Link updates

Reassure owners without another portal.

Each stay gets a private link for photos, daily notes, care status, medication visibility, and pickup details. Owners open it from SMS or email.

  • No owner account, password, or app install.
  • Updates feel specific because they start from real photos, videos, and staff notes.
  • The same link stays useful across the whole stay.

Lightweight care records

Record enough care detail to make updates credible.

This is not a heavy clinical system. It is a quick record of meals, litter, mood, medication, and handoff notes that support safer communication.

  • Tap-to-log meals, litter checks, medication, mood, and staff notes.
  • Medication tasks stay visible until recorded.
  • Care details can feed owner updates and end-of-stay recaps.
Why it sells

Look more professional online, reassure owners faster, and reduce repeated update messages.

For independent catteries, trust is won before the first stay and renewed every evening. CatteryStay gives that trust a visible, repeatable system.

1 site

for local search, services, pricing notes, photos, FAQ, and booking entry

1 link

for owners to follow photos, daily notes, care status, and pickup details

1 flow

from enquiry to stay update without a full software migration

Owners see a polished local business instead of a scattered DM thread.

Staff answer fewer repeated “how is my cat?” messages because the link stays current.

Booking requests collect the details that usually take several replies to gather.

Care records stay lightweight, so small teams can actually keep them up to date.

Pricing

Plans based on active stays, not staff seats.

Start with the owner-update workflow, then add more capacity and the full public website when your boarding load grows.

Prices match the in-app billing plans. The public generated website is currently reserved for Unlimited shops, matching the admin website settings.
