Use casesDog walkers and pet sitters

Stop answering the same schedule question from your phone mid-walk

Owners write about schedules, keys, pricing and how the visit went, often while you are out on a route. Flatdesk collects those in one queue and answers the routine ones from your help center, at $49 per agent per month, or $39 billed yearly.

The Flatdesk inbox with open conversations, owners and an AI answered label

What it does for this

  • Answers for pricing and service area

    Publish your rates, service area and cancellation notice. The AI replies from them.

  • Saved replies for visit updates

    Save your meet-and-greet, visit update and rebooking replies as macros.

  • Assign by walker

    Route messages to the walker who covers that client.

  • A holiday-season auto-reply

    Tell owners about booking cut-offs before busy weeks.

  • One queue for owners

    Email and chat land in one inbox, so a late-night change is not lost in a text thread.

Where it falls short

If you need these today, another help desk fits better.

  • No route planning, payments or visit tracking. Keep those in your scheduling app.
  • Emergencies about a pet need a phone call, not a queue. Say so in your auto-reply.

Questions

Can the AI change a booking?

No. It answers from your help center and hands changes to a person.

Can clients get visit updates here?

Staff can reply with updates from the inbox. Photos are sent as attachments in the thread.

Does it suit a solo sitter?

Yes. Flat pricing means no per-seat cost for one person.
