Book Multiple Days at a Time

Book Multiple Days at a Time

Hello, I am a house sitter / dog walker / animal trainer and would like to utilize Square for multi-day (all day) bookings while also juggling hour-long appointments. I'm currently using 2 separate platforms and would love to streamline my processes, as this causes confusion with my clients.

 

When providing house sitting as a service, clients will leave town for a weekend - up to 2 months at a time. It's my duty to stay at their home 24/7 and tend to their pets. It would be great to have a platform that shows people when I'm booked for this, and what dates I'm readily available for 1-hour appointments.. while also being able to show my calendar up to a year in advance. No other platform has provided an effective process of providing multi-day bookings, and Square feels like it has the potential to become a "one stop shop" for me and most vendors with just this final-added necessity

We have a suite in our building available for nightly rental. Similar to an Airbnb style. We use Square for all invoices and payments and have currently set up a website thru square to do online booking. We have many people wishing to book multiple nights but currently via square appointment calendar they have to do one day at a time. Cumbersome. In the calendar if one is booking a personal event you can choose multiple days at one time. If this could be ported over to appointments for online booking......For example Nov 4 thru Nov 7. As it is now they have to do three separate bookings and payments. Any business requiring multiple days for a service would benefit from this feature.

Hi There, I have the same issue  - also involving dogs  - I am currently building a booking system for a dog boarding business  - allowing clients to book online  - I have managed to allow multiple bookings for a single time slot which was a workaround but seems to work fine. However the client can only book one day at a time  - so cannot book their dog in for the week in one single booking - All it needs is for the same service to re-appear with the other services are shown (when you allow multiple services to be booked for one appointment ) this would solve this  - very frustrating. 

 

same issue with the short stay  - which is where the client can drop off for an hour or maybe they want a couple of hours? As it stands we charge an hourly rate  - so we need the booking system to allow multiple hours to be selected . No idea of a workaround that one. Its a real shame as I really would like to keep everything in one house ie SQUARE. however I am now looking at alternative options and simplybookme.com seems to tick the boxes for the booking system at the moment. Any ideas anyone
