What 123Pet Does For You



123Pet lets you focus on taking care of your clients rather than keeping track of handwritten notes. You can create a unique profile for each pet that’s available at the click of a mouse. Our software allows you to store detailed grooming, personality, kenneling, and medical information, all in one easy to use section.


Each tab includes a large comment area which gives you the ability to keep detailed notes for each visit. Feel free to include as much detail as you need for each pet – there’s no limit! Your clients will love the personalized experience and you’ll love that they keep coming back.

detailed pet profiles





123Pet can store, display, and print an unlimited number of pictures of each pet which are conveniently linked to their profile. Use a web cam to take pictures directly through the software or add an existing photo already saved on the computer from a digital camera or scanner. Once the photo has been linked to the pet, it’s saved inside your database so you no longer have to clutter your computer with unorganized photos!


Use the Picture Manager to save before and after photos of each pet you groom to show off the dramatic results. You can also save a primary pet picture to easily identify each pet when they walk through the door.

unlimited pet photos





In addition to tracking your four legged clients, we also understand the importance of keeping detailed information on their owners. There are no restrictions on how many clients you can have in your database, regardless of which edition you buy. Each client has a complete purchase history profile which contains information about previous product sales, as well as appointment history to help you suggest items to clients during their visits.


No-shows and cancellations are also tracked per client so you know who to follow up with by running a simple report. Special pop-up notes can be made for each client to give you an extra alert when making an appointment. While viewing a client’s information you can also easily see his or her list of pets, assign special discounts, check loyalty points, pre-paid services, client balance and much more!

complete client contact info





Use the client notes feature to collect detailed information about each pet owner. You can quickly access these notes from the ticket screen to add or view information as needed. An option is available to add a date stamp so your notes can be easily organized. You also have the ability to print the client’s notes for those times when you need to view the information away from the computer.

In addition to storing comprehensive notes for each pet, you also have the ability to link a specific veterinarian to each pet. From the Vets screen, you can add a new veterinarian to the database and store his or her address, phone numbers, and business name. A comment section is available if you need to add specific details about each vet. The list of veterinarians you create can then be accessed from the Medical Information tab on the Edit Pet screen for each individual pet.

123Pet offers a fully customizable vaccination system with automatic alerts. As part of each pet’s medical history, you are able to link specific vaccinations to each animal and document when each vaccination expires. Each vaccination record can hold detailed notes and you can set if the shot is optional or required. If a vaccination is set to expire soon, the software will alert you that the pet is due for another shot when you create an appointment. This automatic tracking system makes it easy for you to remind your clients that their pet is due for another vaccination.


vaccination history and alerts





In addition to grooming appointments, 123Pet also offers multi-day services and resources. The appointment book will display a single appointment for each boarding that spans the entire duration of the pet’s stay. Resources represent a specific kennel or boarding room in your business and they hold each of these boarding appointments.

Each resource can have its own maximum occupancy setting to track how many services can be held at once. If you attempt to book an appointment with a resource that is full, you will receive a warning to prevent overbooking. The appointment book has special filters to quickly switch between grooming and boarding so you can always find what you’re looking for.
