Duration-based daycare, with no wasted hours
Set the service duration and check-in time once. Every pickup past the deadline is automatically billed or upgraded according to your rules, so no hour goes to waste and no charge slips through.
Daycare that runs clean, with no manual math
Duration, timing, and lateness are all measured by the system, so staff can focus on the animals instead of a calculator.

“Every dog dropped off is visible on one screen — who's in which area, whether capacity is safe, right down to the photo notes. Owners feel at ease because they get updates, and we never get confused about which dog is where anymore.”

From check-in to pickup, one daycare flow
Set the duration and rules once, then every visit runs automatically through to pickup.
Daycare based on duration and time
Create a daycare service with its own duration, from half day and full day to a custom length, complete with operating hours. As soon as the pet arrives, pick the check-in and check-out time. The pickup deadline is calculated instantly from check-in time plus the service duration.

Late pickup, handled instantly
As soon as a customer picks up past the deadline, PAWSI calculates the lateness instantly and offers two options: add an hourly fee, or upgrade to a longer duration if it's cheaper for the customer. Staff just apply or waive it, and the transaction total updates itself.

Frequently asked questions
Daycare is duration-based day care (half day / full day) with check-in and check-out times. Pet boarding is an overnight stay in a room. Both can run side by side in the same PAWSI account.
Set up when creating the service: set a grace period, then choose an hourly late fee or an upgrade to a longer duration. Enforcement can be automatic or go through staff confirmation first.
Yes. Every daycare service has a duration (e.g. 240 minutes for half day, 480 minutes for a full day) and operating hours. The pickup deadline is calculated from check-in time + duration, so lateness is measured automatically.
Depends on the setting. "Staff confirmation" mode shows a prompt to review the fee vs upgrade before it's applied; "automatic" mode applies the action instantly on a late checkout.
