FAQ

Common Questions

Straight answers from an operator who uses this software daily.

Can the owner fill out the intake form before they arrive?

Yes. A link is sent when the booking is confirmed. Owner completes it on their phone — check-in is just a verification when they arrive.

What vaccines does the system check?

By default: Rabies (required), DHPP (required), Bordetella (required). You can customize which are required vs. recommended.

What if a dog's vaccine expired overnight?

The system runs a nightly check and flags any expiries due within 30 days. Staff see a warning at check-in if an update is needed.

Can I see all dogs checking out today from one screen?

Yes. The checkout queue shows every dog due out, their kennel, balance owed, and whether a prepay link has been sent.

Does the daily photo send automatically?

You configure the send time (e.g., 8:15am). Staff tap a photo button — the system sends the MMS to the owner at the scheduled time.
