Running a pet care business is about passion, not paperwork. Whether you’re managing a full team of walkers and sitters or running a one-person show, you likely didn’t get into this line of work because you love bookkeeping or tax prep. But staying organized financially isn’t just a nice-to-have; it’s what helps your business grow profitably and sustainably.
That’s why we’re thrilled to introduce Found as one of the newest partners in our Community Perks program.
Taking the guesswork out of finances
Found was built with self-employed professionals in mind — the very people who make the pet care world go round. It’s an all-in-one banking, bookkeeping, and tax management platform designed to make money management easier, faster, and (dare we say it) more enjoyable.
From one free1, easy-to-use app, you can automatically track income and expenses with Found while setting aside money for taxes. It seamlessly connects to your business bank account, so every dollar you earn and spend is logged and categorized in real time. That means no more late-night math with your receipts spread across the table or scrambling to figure out what’s deductible come tax time.
For many pet care professionals, bookkeeping is one of those daunting “I’ll get to it later” tasks that can snowball into a major headache. Found takes that stress away by doing the heavy lifting automatically, giving you peace of mind and a clear picture of your business’ health every step of the way.
Designed for how pet care businesses really work
What makes Found stand out is how thoughtfully it’s built for busy small business owners on the go. Between client visits and handling last-minute schedule changes, the last thing you want is to sit down at a desk and manage spreadsheets.
Found simplifies all of that with features built around real-world needs:
- Smart expense tracking: Found automatically tracks and categorizes expenses for you. With their paid plan1, you can auto-import expenses from other banks, cards, and apps as well so everything is in one place. As you get paid, Found even estimates how much you owe in taxes and sets money aside so there are no surprises later.
- Built-in tax prep: Come tax season, get an auto-generated Schedule C or 1120/1120-S form. With their paid plan1, you can also file and pay annual and quarterly Schedule C taxes right in your Found app.
- 1099s automated: Collect W-9 forms, pay your team, and get 1099-NEC forms generated automatically at the end of the year for your contractors.
- Mileage tracking: Log your mileage and track vehicle expenses like gas and maintenance. When you do, Found will automatically calculate your mileage deductions to help you maximize your write-offs.
- Seamless banking: Found offers a business debit card2, mobile check deposit, and easy transfers without monthly fees or minimum balances.
These features give pet care businesses the same level of financial control and insight that big companies enjoy without the complexity or cost.
Why we love Found (and how we work better together)
At PetPocketbook, our mission is to make it easier for you to run and grow your pet care business. We’re here to streamline scheduling, automate billing, and simplify team and client management. We also make getting paid effortless, so you can focus on growth. But we know operations are only one piece of the puzzle. The other? Managing the money that makes it all possible.
That’s where Found comes in.
While PetPocketbook helps streamline your day-to-day operations, Found helps you stay on top of your finances. It tracks every dollar you earn and spend, automatically estimates and sets money aside for taxes, and makes tax filing a breeze. It even helps with mileage tracking, a key business need we know many pet pros rely on but don’t currently have built into PetPocketbook.
Together, PetPocketbook and Found create a complete toolkit for pet care professionals, helping you run more efficiently and feel more financially confident. We also love that they share our passion for keeping things simple, yet powerful. 😉
