Publisher's Description
From Binary House Software:
Pet Sitter is an easy-to-use powerful tool, perfect for those who run pet-sitting or dog-walking business and for those who simply want to take care of their animal companions properly. A comprehensive solution, the program allows creating the database of pets and events planned. It is absolutely essential for pet sitters and dog walkers, as it provides them with a tool to organize the business and to manage it effectively. It will also be of a great help for zoo-keepers, circuses and farmers. You can store any information on the pets, including medical records from veterinarians, the pet's personal diet and favorite toys, and more. Add as many comments as you wish, including pictures, certificates, vaccination and so on. If you are into the pet-sitting business, you know that sometimes it is impossible to keep in mind every detail about the pet you take care of. But just imagine how wonderful it would be, to have at hand all the information you need! That's when the Pet Sitter comes in especially handy. You can also add names and addresses of the owners of the pets. The program features search by the owner's name and by the pet's name. Besides, the built-in calendar makes it extremely easy to plan pet-sitting schedule. It will also remind you when it's time to feed the pets or to visit a veterinarian. Pet Sitter enables a user to save the price of the order; statistics for any period of time can be provided, which is convenient while preparing a report. The software supports most of the formats, including HTML, therefore importing information from web-sites, forums and conferences is very simple. You can also export the information or store it on USB.

"Too much setup needed"
Version: Pet Sitter 2.8
Pros
I'm sure if I had the time to set it up with all the fields and everything it would be fine.
Cons
I thought it would be ready to use, not something I would have to take hours to set up. I can use Access if I want to create the db myself. i wanted something ready to go.

"Powerful pet sitting software for a shoestring budget."
Version: Pet Sitter 2.4
Pros
Easy to use, and the lack of pre-set fields in the client/pet information windows allows you to creatively customize. I have pet photos and all pertinent client information in my own layout. Effective search functions.
Cons
The icon images for pet breeds are wonderfully detailed, but very lacking in scope. 14 dog breed images, 1 cat image, and 50+ birds? Why do you need lemurs, bison, bear, and gorilla icons for a pet sitting business? I just want more dogs & cats!
Summary
For the cost you can't go wrong. With slightly over fifty clients I find the software to be very useful in keeping track of past jobs and pertinent information. It's fairly simplistic in execution, but this means a lack of constraint from another designer's template. You have a scrolling client list, and you can add sub-items (pets) to each client item. Each item and sub-item has its own information window, a rich text format that allows you to create your own layout, which is a huge plus for me. The calendar is nice, but setting up events can be confusing at first. Software isn't completely bug-free, but short of my own excel templates I have successfully depended on the program to keep all of my pet sitting straight. I frequently recommend this program to peers. While I would like more detailed documentation in the updates, I did find the customer support to be very helpful on the rare occasions that I needed it. Bottom line... functional, customizable pet sitting software that doesn't cost $500.
