Common questions

Questions kennel owners ask.

What is the best booking software for a boarding kennels in the UK?

The best kennel software is the one that fits how a working kennels actually runs: payment taken up front to stop no-shows, a morning arrivals list you can trust, vaccination records attached to every pet, and every payment recorded on the booking it belongs to. Sable does exactly these jobs for 3% of payments through Sable. No monthly fee, no setup fee.

How is Sable different from monthly-fee kennel software?

Two ways. Money: 3% of each payment made through Sable, taken when the customer pays. No monthly fee, no setup fee, instead of a subscription every month regardless. You keep the rest, less Stripe’s card fee; Sable only earns when your diary fills. Sable is built and tested at Kuruba, where Sable’s founder works. The features are the jobs that actually eat a kennel owner's day — chasing arrivals, taking payments, knowing who has paid — not features designed in an office.

Does Sable handle vaccination records?

Yes. Every pet has one profile holding vaccinations, diet, vet details and quirks, captured once and attached to every booking — which also makes licence-condition record keeping straightforward.

Can it run a mixed kennels and cattery?

Yes. Sable is built and tested at Kuruba, where Sable’s founder works. Dogs and cats, separate capacities and rates, one diary.

Do I have to set it up myself?

No. We come to your kennels, configure your services, rates, capacity and cancellation policies, and migrate your existing client and pet records. Free, and we stay until it's done.
