✅ Purpose-built for pet care operations — supports pet profiles, vaccination tracking, and multiple pets per customer. ✅ Ready-to-use with no website setup needed. ✅ Integrated POS, invoicing, AI analytics, and payment gateways (Stripe). ✅ Works out-of-the-box for grooming, boarding, daycare, or clinics.
💻 Why Choose Wix
✅ Ideal if you want a beautiful website with booking features. ✅ Easy drag-and-drop design, no coding required. ✅ Great if your focus is online presence + occasional bookings (not full pet management). ✅ Bundled marketing tools (email campaigns, social media, etc.).
⚠️ But Keep in Mind
❌ No pet profiles
Only customer names, no animal records
❌ No boarding/daycare module
Only per-hour or per-session bookings
❌ Limited reporting
No detailed revenue or staff commission data
❌ Business app ecosystem is fragmented
Need multiple Wix apps for payments, CRM, email
❌ Costs can increase
Add-ons like POS, Automations, and Ascend require higher-tier plans
