What Squarespace handles for pet services businesses

Online booking for appointments or stays. Acuity Scheduling, which needs its own subscription, embeds in a page through the scheduling block.

Pet details before the first visit. Form blocks collect the basic details before a first appointment; keep sensitive information in a secure system chosen for it, not a website form or email. Owner contact details and pet records are personal information. Keep them in your booking or practice system rather than an email inbox, and ask only what the first visit needs.

Areas you cover for mobile services. There is no built-in checker; a small script added through code injection can do it on plans that include code injection.

What to check before choosing Squarespace

Features outside Squarespace's blocks need code injection or a third-party service.

Only part of the site exports if you move later.

Running a Squarespace site

All Squarespace plans include managed hosting.

Custom code can be added through code injection on plans that include it.

Extra features come from built-in blocks and linked services such as Acuity Scheduling and OpenTable.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Can Squarespace handle online booking for appointments or stays?

Yes, through an app or plugin. Acuity Scheduling, which needs its own subscription, embeds in a page through the scheduling block.[3]

Can Squarespace handle pet details before the first visit?

Yes, it is built in. Form blocks collect the basic details before a first appointment; keep sensitive information in a secure system chosen for it, not a website form or email. Owner contact details and pet records are personal information. Keep them in your booking or practice system rather than an email inbox, and ask only what the first visit needs.[5][6]

Can you work on an existing Squarespace site?

Yes. We customise and improve existing Squarespace sites. If your site needs more than Squarespace offers, we recommend a platform that fits and plan the move.

Can we move off Squarespace later?

The export is a WordPress-format file covering layout pages, one blog and some blocks; store, portfolio and other page types are left out. Any move should map every old address to its new page with permanent redirects.[7][8]
