The Free Pet Boarding Waitlist App

When a boarding stay cancels, Appointify instantly texts your waitlist so the open kennel fills itself. Always free, and it works right alongside the booking software you already use.

The problem

Empty kennels on a fully booked weekend

Holiday weekends sell out, then a client cancels a stay and that run sits empty. You don't have time to call down a list of pet parents hoping someone needs boarding. Meanwhile families who wanted those dates have already booked elsewhere.

  • Instantly text your whole waitlist the moment a slot opens.
  • The first client to reply books it — no phone tag.
  • Works alongside the booking software you already use.
  • Always free — no credit card, no contracts.
Why Appointify

Turn last-minute cancellations into booked appointments

Fill cancelled stays automatically

The second a boarding reservation drops, Appointify texts every client on your waitlist for that date range. The first to reply claims the kennel opening.

Stay fully booked on peak dates

Clients opt in for the holiday and weekend dates they want most, so your busiest periods stay full even when plans change.

No new system to learn

FAQ

Waitlist questions, answered

Do I have to switch from my current boarding software?

No. Appointify isn't a booking or kennel-management system, so you keep using whatever you have now. It simply texts your waitlist when a stay opens, and you confirm the booking in your existing software.

How do pet owners get on the waitlist?

You invite clients to opt into your in-app waitlist, where they pick the dates they'd take if a kennel frees up. When an opening matches, they get the text automatically.

Is Appointify really free for my boarding facility?

Yes. Appointify is free to download on iOS and Android with no credit card and no trial clock.

What happens when more than one client wants the same opening?

The first pet owner to reply to the text gets the open stay, so the spot fills on a fair, first-come basis without any phone tag on your end.
