For Dog daycare, boarding, grooming, and pet resort facilities
Catch peak-date bookings with no deposit before they no-show
On holiday weeks every run is spoken for, and a no-show means a run you turned someone else away for. When deposits are skipped or late cancels are not charged, the loss is pure.
What it can cost you
Example: 8 holiday no-shows x 5 nights x $60 per night = $2,400 lost on one holiday week.An illustration, not a promise. Your Opportunity Scan puts a real number on it.
What the system checks overnight
- Lists peak-date reservations with no deposit collected.
- Flags clients with past no-shows or late cancels who have peak bookings.
- Checks late cancels inside your policy window for an applied fee.
- Matches cancelled runs to your waitlist for those dates.
- Counts no-shows by service line each month.

What happens when it fires
The manager decides which requests to send. The system drafts deposit requests and waitlist offers for freed runs.
Autonomy level: Draft for approval. The system prepares the message or task, and you approve it before anything goes out.
What we guarantee
Peak-date reservations without a deposit are listed in every brief from the moment the date opens. We agree on the metric before the Sprint starts and measure it over the first 20 business days after go-live. If we miss it, you get half your Sprint fee back. Dollar savings are tracked in your monthly saves log, reported rather than promised.
Questions
Will it charge deposits on its own?
No. It shows who has not paid and drafts the request. Charging stays with your team.
Can it fill cancelled runs from the waitlist?
It drafts offers to waitlisted families as soon as a run frees up. You approve who gets it.
Do I need new software for this?
No. The system reads from the tools you already use, with read-only access by default. A guardrail layer controls exactly which data the AI can see.
What does it cost?
A 3-week Sprint is $6,000 fixed and includes the morning brief plus one automation tied to an agreed metric. Ongoing support is $1,500 a month, or $500 a month to keep it running without new automations. If the agreed metric is missed over the first 20 business days after go-live, half the Sprint fee is refunded.
How is this different from a dashboard app or a free AI kit?
A dashboard app shows numbers when you go look. A free AI kit gives you the parts, and you do the setup, the upkeep, and the checking. Here the alarms are built for your kind of business, they watch outside data like market rates and rule changes alongside yours, and on Run or Keep-Running, the person who built them keeps them working and logs what they caught.
More alarms for pet grooming, boarding, and daycare
Seven more things worth watching.
- Boarding occupancy paceCompare upcoming boarding and daycare bookings to last year's pace by date and run type, and spot soft weeks early enough to fill them.
- Vaccine records expiringFlag booked pets whose vaccine records on file will expire before their stay, so owners send updates ahead of check-in instead of at the desk.
- Daycare package renewalsFlag daycare packages and memberships that are nearly used up, expired, or failed to renew, so families get a renewal note before they stop coming.
- Grooming rebooking gapsSpot grooming clients past their usual return interval with no appointment, by groomer, so you can rebook them before they find another groomer.
- Staff coverage and overtimeCompare scheduled staff to booked daycare and boarding dogs by shift, and flag understaffed playgroups and overtime building up before payroll.
- Unpaid balances at pickupFlag pet care stays and grooms checked out with a balance, add-ons not charged, and accounts that keep booking with money owed.
- Review dropsWatch pet care Google reviews for rating drops, new low reviews, and unanswered reviews by location, so you can respond quickly and calmly.
