Every cat’s routine, written down
Owners hand you more than a key. Half a can of wet food in her own room, a pill hidden in a treat, the one who hides under the bed for the first ten minutes. It all lives on each cat’s profile, filled in by the owner on your intake form and kept current from their portal.
- Feeding and diet for each cat
- Medications and conditions
- Allergies and vet, on hand at every visit
Proof you saw every cat
A cat can hide for a whole visit, and owners know it. Give cat visits their own report card: a checklist ticked off for each cat, like fed, litter box scooped, and meds given, a photo tagged to every cat, and how each one was doing.
- Your own checklist for cat visits, per cat
- Photos tagged to each cat
- A mood for each cat, from cuddly to scared
Priced for a house of cats
Three cats aren’t one cat. Set a rate for the second cat and another for every cat after that, separate from your dog rates, and offer a quick feed or a long play visit at their own prices. Clients see the total, extra cats included, before they send the request.
- Extra cat rates by number of cats
- Short and long visits at their own prices
- Cat rates set apart from your dog rates
“Scritches has been very easy for myself and clients to navigate. I like that it does not require an app, therefore less glitches and bugs. My clients have enjoyed seeing the "emotional" report cards and the emojis that show how their pets mood was during visits as well.”
