Creating a memorable experience for clients comes down to the details.
Any unique services or personal touches you add help set your pet-care business apart and show pet parents you truly care. While they expect basic daycare or kennel services, providing fun and engaging add-ons can elevate the experience for pet parents and their pups.
If you're looking to spice up your services, here are some fun add-ons to consider including in reservation bookings:
One-on-one playtime sessions tailored to a pet’s preferences can be a great add-on. Whether it’s fetch, tug-of-war, or a calm cuddle session, personalized playtime ensures that pets receive special attention during their stay. Offering a variety of activities based on a pet's personality will make them feel more at home and attract pet parents with the prospect of individualized care.
Mental stimulation is just as important as physical exercise for pets. Consider offering enrichment activities like:
All these activities are enticing add-ons for pet parents looking to give their pets extra enrichment. And the best part? They are low maintenance to manage on your staff's end.
For stays longer than three days, we recommend automatically including a bath in the pet's kennel reservation so they go home fresh and clean. Special reservation rules are something you can manage easily with pet-care software like Gingr.
Pet parents love staying connected with their furry friends, even when they are away. Offering daily photo or video updates can be an exciting add-on. These updates allow pet parents to see how their pets are doing, whether they're playing with new friends or relaxing in a cozy spot.
Gingr makes constant updates easy with our report card feature. Take photos, upload them, and send out with comments instantly via email and SMS to clients!
For pets who love their snacks, consider offering special treats as an add-on option. From gourmet dog biscuits to frozen doggy popsicles, these tasty extras can be a delightful surprise for pets during their stay. You can also offer meal upgrades, such as grain-free, organic, or specialty diets, catering to pets with specific dietary needs or preferences.
For a truly unique and comforting experience, offer a bedtime story and tuck-in service. This add-on provides pets with extra attention and care before settling in for the night. A few things you can do to personalize this service include:
Fun and thoughtful add-ons can turn a standard daycare or kennel booking into a memorable experience. Examine your current services, staff, and space to see what possibilities exist to add one or multiple of these suggestions to your add-on options. After all, it may take that one special service to turn a new client into a lifelong supporter!
