What makes AllPaws different

Where AllPaws does more of the work

AllPaws applies your rates, rules and records for you, and its AI drafts the busywork for your team to approve.

  1. 01

    AI drafts the reply. Your team sends it.

    When a customer texts about hours, prices, vaccines or boarding and daycare availability, AllPaws drafts the answer from your own settings, and eligible cancellations and date changes take one click. Your team reviews every reply before it goes out. Suggested replies come with the texting add-on.

    How Gingr compares

    We didn’t find AI features built by Gingr for your front desk. Gingr offers AI through Broadly, a partner sold separately, which replies to new inquiries and asks for reviews automatically. Its updates page lists AI-powered analytics dated Q2 2026 and says AI-powered scheduling is coming next; we didn’t find either in its help center.8, 9, 10

  2. 02

    Priced by the services you run

    AllPaws is $35 a month for each service type at one location, with every core feature included. Boarding, daycare and grooming together cost $105 a month, and texting is an optional add-on.

    How Gingr compares

    Gingr prices each location by plan: Spa $109, Play $169 and Stay $179 a month, or $100, $142 and $154 a month billed annually. Stay covers boarding, daycare and grooming. Its price assumes Gingr’s integrated payments; without them it’s $209 a month ($179 a month billed annually).4, 5

  3. 03

    Vaccine records read for you

    AllPaws reads the dates from uploaded and texted vaccine records for your staff to confirm. Missing or expiring required vaccines are flagged on the booking, and check-in waits until requirements are met.

    How Gingr compares

    Gingr tracks required vaccines and can block booking requests when they’re missing or expired. Pet parents upload records, and its help center has staff enter the expiration dates. VetVerifi, a separate partner, can verify records and sync them into Gingr.8, 11, 12, 13

  4. 04

    A guided move from Gingr

    AllPaws has import tools for Gingr. Our team uses them to bring your customers, pets, vaccine records, notes and reservations across.

    How Gingr compares

    Gingr lets you download a full backup of your database, and its help center says a new provider can use that backup to import your data.26
