sitkit is a web app for UK pet sitters who look after animals in their owners' homes, from drop-in visits and dog walks to overnight stays. It suits sole traders and small to medium-sized teams, and works for any kind of animal.
To add a booking, the sitter picks the dates, the number of visits each day and the price. sitkit sets out each visit and totals the cost, including overnight stays priced per night. The sitter then shares a booking link by WhatsApp, text or email. Customers need no app or password: they open a page showing the sitter's business name and colours, review their visits and pay by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay through Stripe. Payment confirms the booking automatically. If the dates change later, sitkit works out any balance due or refund owed. Sitters who prefer to take payment their own way can do so with no extra fee.
Confirmed visits appear in a diary showing the time and who is doing each one, with the customer's notes, address, directions and phone number to hand. A monthly calendar shows busy weeks and gaps, and marks provisional bookings until they're confirmed. A business view compares earnings and forward bookings with last year, allowing for seasonal swings.
On the Team plan, owners invite sitters by email and assign visits, and each sitter gets a login showing only their own work. Pricing is £15 a month (Solo) or £30 a month (Team, any number of sitters), VAT included, with a 30-day free trial and no card needed.
