RavFia Pet Services — book a pet service, pay a deposit, no more no-shows.
Small pet services businesses lose real money to no-shows. A customer books a sitter, the sitter blocks the time and turns down other work, then the customer just doesn't show. Booking by scattered texts makes it worse — details get lost and nothing is confirmed until it's too late.
This app fixes both parts:
- AI scheduling assistant. The customer types a plain-English request, like "watch my dog Milo next Friday evening," and the app turns it into a pre-filled booking — service, date, and time window land in the form automatically. No AI key is needed: a built-in parser handles it, and if an OpenAI key is set, the model tries first and the parser is the fallback.
- PayPal deposit. A booking isn't confirmed until a 30% deposit is paid through PayPal. A customer who has paid a deposit shows up. The deposit is calculated on the server from the service picked, never set by the browser.
- AI-written confirmation. After PayPal confirms the payment, the app writes a plain, friendly confirmation with the booking details, the deposit paid, and the PayPal order ID, so both sides have the same record.
