Scheduling & Booking

Protect Your Breaks. Block Your Holidays. Guard Your Boundaries.

Block out breaks, maintenance windows, holidays, and closures so your availability is always accurate.

Your availability is not just about when you work. It is about lunch breaks, equipment cleaning, holidays, staff training, and the hundred other things that eat into bookable time. Petboost lets you block all of this out so clients only see genuine availability.

Sound Familiar?

Clients are booking into times you need for breaks, cleanup, or personal time. You end up working through lunch, skipping maintenance, or manually declining bookings that should never have been offered in the first place.

The Petboost Solution

How Petboost helps

Petboost lets you block time for anything that is not a client appointment, per team member or across the board.

Explore Magic Scheduling

Block recurring breaks (lunch, cleanup) that repeat on your chosen schedule.

Block one-off time for meetings, training, or personal commitments.

Create business-wide closures for holidays, maintenance days, or events.

Per-team-member blocks so individual schedules are respected.

Blocked time is automatically hidden from online booking so clients never see those slots.

Visual blocked-time indicators on the calendar so your team knows at a glance what is unavailable.

Why It Matters

Key Benefits

Protect your wellbeing

Guaranteed lunch breaks and personal time that clients cannot book into. Set boundaries that stick.

Accurate online availability

Blocked time is hidden from your online booking so clients only see and book genuine availability.

Flexible and granular

Block time for the whole business or individual team members. Set it once for recurring breaks or create one-off blocks as needed.

Prevent burnout

Consistent breaks and protected personal time help you and your team stay energised and deliver better service.

"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."

"The automatic payments feature is a blessing"

"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'."
