About Petwyse
Built to rescue one cat hotel from its diary.
Petwyse started at The Cat Hotel in Linden, Johannesburg. It now runs every booking, payment and reminder there, and we have opened it up to boarding businesses around the world.
Owners first, software second.
“We tried the big names. None of them understood a hotel with villas, suites and shared rooms, deposits by bank transfer, and owners who want to know their cat by name. So we built our own.”
Paul, founder of Petwyse
The booking nightmare
The Cat Hotel, run by Moira, outgrows pen and paper. A boutique-hotel system almost fits, and the pet software on the market fits worse.
Building our own
Frustrated with inflexible tools and cluttered dashboards, the family starts building a system shaped around how the hotel actually runs.
Running the whole hotel
Bookings, deposits, reminders, staff and stock all move into Petwyse. The diary is retired.
Open to every hotel
Paul leaves his career as a financial analyst to work on Petwyse full time and adds multi-hotel support.
What we believe
Three things we will not compromise on.
Built for the front desk
Every feature exists because a real hotel needed it on a real Monday morning. If it does not save an owner time, it does not ship.
Fair, simple pricing
Every feature on every plan, unlimited staff logins and no surprise add-ons. You pay for the size of your hotel and nothing else.
Your data is yours
Your customers and their pets belong to you. You can export everything at any time, and we never sell it.
