Terms of service

Last updated 12 September 2026

A plain-English draft, written by the people who built the software and accurate about how it works. It has not yet been reviewed by a lawyer, and it does not yet name a governing jurisdiction. Email hello@pawteli.com if you need the reviewed version before you sign up.

What this covers

These terms are between Pawteli and the business that opens an account. By creating an account you agree to them. If you are agreeing on behalf of a business, you are confirming you are allowed to.

What we provide

Software for running a pet boarding and daycare business: bookings, a lodging board, pet and owner records, vaccine tracking, photos, and a page for your customers. We host it and keep it running. We do not provide veterinary, legal or insurance advice, and the software does not replace your own judgment about which animals you accept.

What it costs

$149 per month per facility, flat, including every feature. Billing is monthly and you can stop at any time; we do not refund part-months. If we ever change the price we will give at least 30 days' notice by email, and you can leave before it takes effect.

We do not handle your money

This is important, so it gets its own section. Pawteli is not a payment processor, a money transmitter or a merchant of record. We never receive, hold or move your customers' payments. You keep your own card processor and your relationship with them is yours. The software records what a stay costs and what you tell it you collected; those are bookkeeping notes, not transactions, and reconciling them with your actual takings is your responsibility.

Your data stays yours

Everything you and your customers put into Pawteli belongs to you. We hold it to run the service and for no other purpose. We do not sell it, rent it, or use it to train models. You can export all of it as a CSV from the settings page at any time, without asking and without a fee. See the privacy notice for what is stored and who else processes it.

Your side of it

  • Keep your staff account details to yourself, and remove staff who leave.
  • Only put in information you are entitled to hold, and tell your customers what you collect. You are the one with the relationship with them.
  • Do not use the service to break the law, harass anyone, or try to reach another facility's data.
  • Do not attempt to overwhelm, probe or reverse engineer the service.

Vaccine records, and what the software does not promise

Pawteli can read dates off an uploaded certificate to save your staff typing. It is an aid, not an authority. A person on your team confirms every record before it is saved, and the accuracy of your vaccine records is your responsibility, as is deciding which animals you accept. The check that blocks a lapsed vaccine at check-in can be overridden by your own staff by design. We are not liable for decisions made about which animals to admit.

Uptime and support

We work to keep the service available and will not take it down on purpose without notice, but we do not offer a guaranteed uptime figure and you should not treat it as infallible. Support is by email at hello@pawteli.com.

Ending it

You can close your account whenever you like. Export your data first, because closing removes it. We may suspend an account that is not paying or that is being used in a way that breaks these terms, and except in serious cases we will contact you first and give you a chance to export.

Liability

The service is provided as it is. To the extent the law allows, we are not liable for indirect or consequential losses, and our total liability in any twelve-month period is limited to what you paid us in that period. None of this limits liability that cannot legally be limited.

Other products named on this site

Pawteli is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or connected to Gingr, PetExec, Revelation Pets, Togetherwork or any other product mentioned. Their names are their own trademarks, used only to describe and compare what they make. Claims about them on our comparison pages are dated and linked to a public source, and we will correct anything shown to be wrong.

Changes

If these terms change materially we will email account holders and update the date above. Continuing to use the service after that means you accept the change.
