How do I set resource capacity?

Edit any resource and set its maximum capacity. For example, set your kennel block to 12, or your grooming area to 4 stations.

Does capacity update in real time?

Yes. As bookings are made and completed, available capacity updates instantly across all views and booking channels.

Can different resources have different capacities?

Yes. Each resource has its own capacity setting. Your small kennels might hold 8, while your large kennel suite holds 4.

What happens if I need to exceed capacity?

Manual bookings show a warning but allow override. Online booking strictly enforces the limit.

Know Exactly How Many Pets Your Facilities Can Handle

Capacity limits per resource with automatic availability adjustment.

Your facilities have physical limits. 10 kennels means 10 boarding pets. 3 grooming stations means 3 concurrent grooms. Petboost resource capacity enforces these limits automatically, so you never accept more pets than your space can safely accommodate.

Capacity Management

Sound Familiar?

You mentally track how many kennels are full or which grooming stations are available. On busy days, you lose track and end up with more pets than you can safely manage. It is stressful and potentially unsafe.

"The customer service is out of this world"

"You won't regret joining…it's the best. I own a dog daycare, grooming and training. I was using an American company for 6 years, which was ok but expensive, not a great system and to get any support took days. When I came to Petboost which is Ozzy owned I knew they were a small business but wanted to give them a go. I have been extremely impressed, the customer service is out of this world, they focus on what animal businesses actually need and listen to their clients. The pricing structure makes sense and is very affordable, it is very easy to use and navigate, and the way they have built the business reports and analytics is so impressive, easy to understand and personalised."

"Streamlined Invoicing and Booking for Small Teams. I really like how much quicker and easier Petboost Business has become after the upgrades. The automatic payments feature is a blessing as it helps me not to stress, and the self-booking option for clients is amazing for my business! These features ease the mental load and reduce manual admin tasks, allowing me to focus on what I do best."

"I haven't had a single missed payment or no-show"

"Just try it, you won't look back. The moment I turned Petboost on for my business, I never looked back. I haven't had a single missed payment or no-show. I no longer have to manually reconcile payments either. Now I can finally get time to do other things in my business instead of sitting in front of a screen for 'admin days'."
