sitkit costs £15 a month for a sole pet sitter and £30 a month for a team with any number of sitters, both including VAT, after a 30-day free trial that needs no card.
What a pet sitting business gets
You keep talking to customers the way you already do, by WhatsApp, text or email, and sitkit does the sums and the chasing. You enter the dates, visits per day and price, and the app lays out every visit and the total. Your customer opens a link to a page in your business name and colors and pays by card, Apple Pay or Google Pay, which confirms the booking. If dates change after payment, sitkit works out what is still owed or what to refund.
On the day, each visit shows your notes, the address with directions and the customer’s number. A numbers screen shows what you have earned, what is booked ahead and whether you are up on the same months last year.
Plans and card fees
| Plan | Price | Who it suits |
|---|---|---|
| Solo | £15 a month | One person working alone |
| Team | £30 a month | A business with sitters, however many |
Card payments are optional. On a standard UK card Stripe charges 1.5% plus 20p and sitkit adds 1%, or £2.70 on a £100 booking by the company’s own example. Taking payment your own way costs nothing extra, and either plan can be canceled with 30 days’ notice.
Who it is built for
sitkit covers drop-in visits, overnight stays and dog walks in the owner’s home, for any animal from cats to chickens. On the Team plan each sitter gets a login showing only their own visits and notes. There is no customer portal, self-service booking or GPS tracking of staff, and the company says businesses needing payroll, a QuickBooks link, or tools for boarding, day care or grooming will be better served by fuller systems.
The company behind it
sitkit was built by Milly, who runs a cat sitting business in Southsea, and Richard, a software engineer of 20 years. Every booking at Milly’s business has gone through it for three years. It is operated by Groove Logic Ltd from Copnor Road in Portsmouth, and support emails are answered by one of the two founders.
