What others say about us....
Bluewave web ware is amazing! Zen Petz tripled in size this year and having the BPPS system is like an additional employee. The staff love logging onto the system and receiving automatic schedule emails instead of constant phone calls racking up countless minutes on cell bills. Bluewave also eases the burden of running a pet sitting/dog walking/dog training company for me as well. Scheduling and tracking are simplified and allow me more time to spend with my family and on expanding / growing the business. So much so that I used the system while on vacation several states away! It gave me the freedom to effectively manage my business remotely while my sitters/walkers continued as usual. - Maryann Nash, CPDT, Zen Petz, Germantown, MD.
Hi Chris,
Just a quick note to you...I found out my sister was diagnosed with aggressive cancer yesterday. I will be flying to NY tonight to spend time with her. Because of what you created with the Bluewave Professional Pet Sitter application I was able to reassign and make sure over 250 pet care visits were covered in just over 1 hour. I can also keep my business running from New York. It's amazing. I would not have been able to do this without you.

"Hi Chris, thought you would like to know - I got the online booking feature up and running last Thursday and have already had one booking the following day, two the day after that and two more today. Clients that have seen it LOVE this new feature and are excited to be able to utilize it. One raved on the professional look and functionality it has. Just thought you'd like to hear what I'm hearing."

What pet owners say...
"It is very easy to learn and use, yet
is a very powerful and complete system."
"In just a few weeks I was able to convert a
manual system to Pet Sitter Assistant. It is very
easy to learn and use, yet is a very powerful and
complete system. Clients and staff (sitters) love
it too! Also, technical support for this product
is outstanding. This system will definitely save
time and allow us to service clients much more
effectively!"

"It was really great today..."
"It was really great today. I showed Peggy how to look at and print the client info that I've been so diligently entering. It was sure a lot better than copying the Service Agreement and then still having a Word document that had "everything else" in it. You're wonderful!!"

I like the new software - it is a nice confirmation. You've gotten so formal since I first met you! First it was you, now you've got 4-5 more people, and you've got invoices - you're running a real professional business :) Jodi L.
