Whelp
Whelp is a litter management platform for dog and cat breeders. Each family gets a private page with their puppy or kitten's photos, weights, and notes — updated in real time, no app or login required.
Manage your entire breeding operation from one place: public storefront (Your Nest), waitlist with deposits, individual puppy profiles with collar colors and sex tracking, automated weight charts, inquiry inbox, and alumni history. Families receive updates the moment you log them.
Built for breeders running 1-4 litters per year who are tired of group chats, scattered DMs, and spreadsheets. One link replaces it all. Your families see their baby growing. New families find you through your Nest and join your waitlist.
Free to start. Pro plans from $59/month.

Kinvara
Kinvara is all-in-one breeder software for dog breeders and catteries, replacing the spreadsheets, paper folders and text threads a breeding program usually runs on.
Track every dog or cat with photos, titles, registrations, health testing and a multi-generation pedigree. Plan pairings with genetics forecasts, log litters, and record per-puppy weights, vaccinations and temperament tests. Applications flow in from your existing website and join the right waitlist in deposit order.
Every buyer family gets a private portal: photos as their animal grows, health records, an e-signable contract and online payment. Invoices are paid through your own payment account, so the money lands with you and Kinvara never holds your funds.
Catteries are native, not an afterthought: every screen, email and document speaks cattery, with TICA/CFA registries.
