7 Core Verticals

Pet care, and the voice that answers for it.

Grooming, boarding, daycare, mobile grooming, training and retail share one customer and pet record. Conversational AI answers the phone for the ones it is live on.

Grooming

Five numbers across the top tell you the day at a glance: in care now, ready for pickup, completed, average groom time, average kennel time. Under them a four-lane tracker — check-in, grooming, ready, checked out — keeps the whole worklog on one screen, so nobody walks the floor to ask where a dog is.

  • Vaccine check at check-in, logged override
  • Texts at start and ready only
  • Groomer brief before each appointment

How Doastly compares

A deficit of innovation, empowerment and care. We address all three.

Each verdict is what that vendor publishes, checked 21–22 September 2026. Hover any cell for the evidence, the page and the date. “Not stated” means we looked and did not find it, which is not the same as no. Ours are pre-launch: built and verified internally, not yet running at a customer.

Conversational AI · Illustrative examples

Hear how it actually sounds.

A booking taken after closing, a receipt sent at eight in the evening, a straight answer about last week’s groom, a health worry it refuses to guess at, a date change it is not allowed to make, and a family four days from seeing their dog. Illustrative, not recordings of customers; the callers’ words come from real logged calls.

Transcripts & audio in
BOOKED

9:04pm on a Saturday. You closed at six.

The call that goes to voicemail everywhere else, and then goes to the salon down the road. Of the nineteen products we priced, none answers it.

AI
Hi Dan. Calling about Bella?
Caller
You're still open? It's gone nine.
AI
We closed at six, but I can still book you in right now.
Caller
I want a full groom for Bella this Monday at 9:30
AI
For Bella: I'll book a full groom with Riya, Monday September 28 at 9:30 AM. Should I go ahead?
Caller
Yes go ahead
AI
Done -- that's taken care of. You'll get a text confirmation shortly.
Caller
Thanks, bye
SENT

A receipt, at ten past eight on a Tuesday

Nobody staffs a phone for this. It is thirty seconds of a groomer's time, several times a day, and it never shows up in a salon's own sense of what the phone costs them.

AI
Hi Marcus. Calling about Duke?
Caller
Can you email me the receipt for Duke's last daycare visit
AI
Sent to the email on file -- that's the September 14 visit, $48.00. Anything else?
Caller
No that's it. Thanks, bye
AI
You're all set. Goodbye!
ANSWERED

What did you actually do last time

It is reading this salon's own record for this pet -- the service, the date and the groomer, because it is looking at them. Not a general answer about grooming.

AI
Hi Priya. Calling about Cooper?
Caller
What did you actually do for him last time
AI
Full groom with Riya on September 8 -- bath, nails, ears and teeth.
Caller
Who was the groomer before that?
AI
Riya as well, on July 12 -- the same full groom. Anything else?
Caller
Okay. Thanks, bye
AI
You're welcome, see you soon!
TRANSFERRED

A question about the dog, not the booking

It knows what it does not know. It will not guess about an animal, it says so without hedging, and it does not leave the worry sitting with you.

AI
Hi Sam. Calling about Nala?
Caller
Riya said she had a hot spot last time. It looks worse now
AI
Riya noted that on September 8, near her right ear.
Caller
Should I be worried or is that normal
AI
I can't advise on that -- putting you through to the salon.
Caller
Okay
AI
Stay on the line, someone will be with you.
TRANSFERRED

A date change, on a dog that is with you right now

The card above shows judgement. This one shows the assistant cannot be talked out of the rule, because the rule is not its to keep: while the pet is checked in, the code refuses the change before the model is ever asked.

AI
Hi Elena. Calling about Milo?
Caller
I need to pick Milo up a day early, Thursday instead of Friday
AI
Milo's checked in right now, so I can't move his dates.
Caller
It's only one day
AI
Not while he's with us -- that's locked on my side.
Caller
So who can
AI
Putting you through to the salon now -- they can change it for you.
Caller
Thanks
ANSWERED

Day two of four. She has not seen her dog since Tuesday.

A boarding family is cut off for days, and this call is often the only thing that ever tells them anything. The answer is specifics only a real record can produce.

AI
Hi Jess. Calling about Daisy?
Caller
How is Daisy doing today
AI
Day two of four. She ate both meals yesterday and breakfast today.
Caller
Her tablets?
AI
Both doses given, 8 AM and 4 PM. Nothing flagged today.
Caller
When can I pick her up
AI
Friday, any time from 8 AM. Anything else before you go?
Caller
Thanks, bye
BOOKED

Nobody here has met this caller before

No caller ID match, no record to read from -- every example above opens already knowing who is calling. This one does not, so it asks, then sets up the customer, the pet and the appointment in the same call.

AI
Thank you for calling Doastly Frisco. How can I help you today?
Caller
Book an appointment
AI
What's your first and last name?
Caller
Zephyrina Kowalczyk
AI
I don't have you on file here -- I can get you set up right now. What's your pet's name?
Caller
Buddy
AI
What day and time work for you?
Caller
Next Monday at 10am
AI
I'll set you up as a new customer, add Buddy as your pet, and book a grooming session for Monday, September 14
Caller
yes
AI
You're all set -- see you then!
ANSWERED

Asking before booking anything

A first-time caller who has not decided to book yet, asking what is available and what it costs -- answered with real starting prices, not a transfer to voicemail.

AI
Thank you for calling Doastly Little Elm. How can I help you today?
Caller
Do you have any grooming packages or bundles?
AI
Full Groom starts at $45; Bath Only starts at $30; Nail Trim is $15; Ear Cleaning is $12; Shampoo starts at $10.
AI
We offer Full Groom, Bath Only, Nail Trim, Ear Cleaning, and Shampoo. Would you like to book something?
ANSWERED

Is he ready to go home

Daycare pickup has no fixed finish time the way a groom does -- the real answer is "come whenever the doors are open," not a clock time, and that difference is the point.

AI
Hi Maya. Calling about Scout?
Caller
Hi, I'm calling to check on my dog Scout, is he ready for pickup?
AI
Scout's still in daycare but you can pick him up anytime during open hours.
Caller
No that's all, thank you
AI
Thanks for calling -- have a great day!
ANSWERED

What do I owe

A real balance, read from the account, per pet -- and it holds up when the caller pushes for the total across every pet they have, not just the one they called about.

AI
Hi Diana. Calling about Max?
Caller
What do I owe
AI
You owe fifty-seven dollars for Max's grooming.
Caller
Actually what about all my pets
AI
Your total account balance is fifty-seven dollars, all for Max.
ANSWERED

Do you even come to my street

The one "status" question with no equivalent at a fixed-location salon: does the van reach this address at all, before anything about a date or a price comes up.

AI
Thank you for calling Demo Mobile Van #1. How can I help you today?
Caller
Do you service 6959 Lebanon Rd, Frisco Texas?
AI
Yes, we service that address. What day and time work for you?

It also fields: “Is Rocky done yet” · “When is Bella getting picked up from boarding” · “How much does boarding cost” · “I want to cancel Teddy's appointment” · “Who is my groomer for that appointment?” · “Book Juniper for a full groom this Saturday at noon”

Revenue recovered, not just saved

An unanswered after-hours call is a booking that went elsewhere.

You stop being the answering service

No more picking up with wet hands mid-groom.

Takes the 4th call at once

One receptionist takes one call. This takes 4.

The same answer every time

No guess or wrong answers under any pressure.

The math, shown — not just the conclusion

A busy front desk spends about 100 hours a month on the phone, roughly half a front-desk day, every day. At $20/hour fully loaded that is ~$2,000 a month.

Put your own hours and rate in. Against $99 to $299 a month, the arithmetic is yours to check.

Let AI do the work

Real AI, working on real records.

This is what it writes. A report card the family reads, the brief the groomer reads before the dog comes in, the evening update from a boarding stay, the daycare day with the incident in the first line. Staff decide; the AI drafts. Six examples, illustrative.

The report card, after the groom

Written from what the groomer recorded. A concern the groomer flagged is named plainly, near the top, never buried under the good news.

Emailed to the family

Luna did well today. She was calm in the dryer, which is new for her, and her coat came out soft with no matting left behind the ears.

One thing to raise with your vet: Riya found a small firm lump behind Luna’s right ear, roughly pea-sized. It did not seem sore when touched. We are not able to say what it is, and we would rather you heard it from us today than noticed it in a month.

Nails trimmed, ears cleaned, teeth brushed. She ate a treat on the way out and left in a good mood.

Written from: Luna · French Bulldog · full groom with Riya · groomer flagged a lump behind the right ear

The brief, before the groom

What the groomer needs in the ten seconds before a dog comes in, from this salon’s own history with that pet. This one is the product’s own output, unedited.

On the groomer’s screen at check-in

LUNA | Golden Retriever | 4y 3m | 62 lbs

FLAGS — Anxious during nail trims/paw handling, requires slow pace and frequent breaks. DHPP vaccine expires in 22 days, coordinate booster with owner today. History of hot spot behind left hip (Aug ’26), check for recurrence.

LAST VISIT (Aug 12) — Coat silky/smooth but skin slightly dry; hot spot behind left hip resolved. Owner reported home licking behavior in that area before visit.

TODAY — Check left hip area for any new irritation or licking damage. Use deshedding tools to pull loose undercoat from double coat. Work feathering on legs and tail carefully; detangle before bathing. Save nail trim for end; go slowly, praise between paws. Mention DHPP booster due soon when owner picks up.

Written from: Luna · Golden Retriever · 4y 3m · anxious about paws · hot spot last visit · DHPP expiring

The nightly update from a boarding stay

A boarding family hears nothing for days unless somebody writes to them. This goes out every evening, built from what staff logged that day.

Emailed to the family each evening

Daisy has had a steady day. She finished both meals, which is an improvement on yesterday evening, and she took her tablets at eight and at four without any fuss.

She had twenty-five minutes out in the yard this afternoon and spent most of it in the sun rather than tearing about. She settled quickly at bedtime.

Two more nights. We will write again tomorrow.

Written from: Daisy · day 2 of 4 · both meals eaten · two medication doses logged · 25-minute walk · settled

The daycare day, including the bit nobody wants to write

A logged incident can never be dropped, and never softened into a good day — that rule is enforced in code, not left to the model. Putting it in the first line is the standard we write to.

Emailed to the family at pickup

One thing to tell you about first: there was a scuffle at the water bowls around two o’clock between Milo and another dog. Staff separated them straight away and checked them both over. No injury, and Milo went back out happily afterwards.

The rest of his day was good. He was out in the big yard most of the morning and slept through the quiet hour.

He left with his lead, his blue toy and his lunchbox.

Written from: Milo · full day · incident logged by staff: a scuffle at the water bowls, no injury · otherwise settled

The campaign you would have written

Drafted from your own customers, in your salon’s voice. You read it, you change it, you decide whether it goes.

Drafted for your approval

We have not seen Charlie since June, and we were thinking about him.

If you book him in this week we will add a nail trim on us. Same groomer if she is free.

Reply BOOK and we will find you a time, or ignore this and we will stop asking.

The call you were not there to take

Saturday evening, salon closed, phone answered anyway. It books into the same calendar your staff use.

Booked, and texted to the caller

Caller: Hi — are you open? I need to get Bella in, she is a mess.

Doastly: We are closed now, but I can book her. What day suits?

Caller: Monday if you have anything.

Doastly: Monday at 9:30 with Riya. Shall I take it?

Caller: Yes please.

Doastly: Booked. You will get a text in a moment.

From the founders

Founder’s Note

Himanshu, founder of Doastly

We built Doastly because we couldn’t find a platform that reflected how real pet care actually works.

You have spent years working around your software — the same pet typed in twice, the phone ringing through a groom, a percentage of every card payment gone before it reaches you. None of that is your fault, and none of it has to continue. I built Doastly the other way round: one record per pet, a phone that answers itself, and your own Stripe or Square at zero percent.

We wanted grooming, boarding, daycare, mobile vans, and retail all sharing one unified customer and pet profile, one common booking interface, one consolidated payment experience, one centralized vaccine record, digitally signed compliance documents completed before intake, and one staff schedule tied directly to payroll integrations. We wanted real AI that helps salons make the right service recommendations, puts pet histories right at their fingertips, and provides conversational AI that actually answers the phone. And we wanted all of this without software companies holding payout money or taking a cut of payment processing fees.

More than that, we wanted to raise the standard of care.

That means reducing stressful kennel time by sending real time notifications the second a pet is ready for pickup, and giving families better visibility into their pet’s health, hygiene, and behavior after every visit.

Nobody was building software centered on both operational freedom and the wellbeing of the pet.

So we did.
