Indianapolis — March 15, 2011—The new service, PetBookings.com, is allowing pet owners to go online and book boarding reservations in real-time with instant confirmation.  With kennels having limited office hours and filling to capacity months in advance, online reservations are a much needed service for an industry slightly behind the times when it comes to technology.  It is basically Hotels.com, but for pets!  No such service like PetBookings.com has previously surfaced due to the unique details and intricacies involved in making pet boarding reservations.  Differing rate structures, number and size of pets, and closed to arrival/departure dates are among the number of variables that contribute to the complexity of a single pet reservation.  Although the behind the scenes programming and inner workings differ greatly, the look and navigation of PetBookings.com resembles the most popular online travel planning websites, such as Orbitz, Travelocity, and Expedia.

It has taken over a year and a half of development and programming in order to launch the website for use.  Currently, there are 11 pet boarding facilities in the Indianapolis area that are taking real-time online reservations through PetBookings.com.  Indianapolis has served as the beta testing ground, and the website is now ready to launch a national campaign.  Next week, PetBookings.com will be targeting over 625 kennels nationwide and inviting them to join the network of online reservations.

PetBookings.com is the only website that offers this type of service and convenience. It is completely original and provides an outstanding service to pet owners and pet boarding facilities, alike.  Pet owners can now synchronize and reserve every aspect of travel planning online, whether it is airfare, hotel, cruise, car rental…and now pet boarding!
