“All that is required to get started is a modest one-time set-up fee and the first month's service fee.”
kennellink.com · Sep 26, 2026 ↗ - Price scales with 'spaces': every kennel and every bookable daycare dog counts.
“A "space" is defined as a kennel or a daycare dog.”
kennellink.com · Sep 26, 2026 ↗ - Texting is $20/mo plus $0.015 per text.

The website-cost question
Which part of Kennel Link do you actually need?
A useful tool may be worth keeping. If a website, form or portal is a separate line on your bill, check its full cost, ownership and exit terms before changing anything.
