Pet care check-in and checklists
Everything the day needs, in one place.
Pet care check-in to pickup, and the routines in between. Built for a floor where people are holding a wet dog with one hand.
A sample screen from the operations part of Bandana.
All of it, in detail
- Check in and check out
- Move a pet through the day in one tap. When you mark a pet ready, the owner gets a text saying so, once your texting is approved.
- Pet and client records
- Coat type, behaviour notes, medical flags, vaccination expiry, who is allowed to collect. Visible before the dog is on the table.
- Staff roles that fit real jobs
- A bather does not need refund access. A front desk does not need payroll. Permissions match responsibilities rather than seniority.
- Opening and closing checklists
- Opening, closing, cleaning and handover routines you write once and tick off each day.
- A change log, kept
- Changes to clients, pets, appointments, invoices and payments are recorded with who made them and what changed. A History panel on each client and invoice page shows who changed what, for the people you give it to. A screen for the whole business is planned.
- Works on the phone
- Bandana runs in a phone's browser with the calendar, the pet notes and the camera for report cards, and takes a card on the same screen.
Nothing here requires a laptop or a spare hand. The busiest hour of the day is the one it is designed for.
How it works in detail
- Writing up an incident — A bite, an escape, a slip — and why you cannot edit one afterwards.
- Client and pet records — What to fill in, what can wait, and searching by the dog's name.
- Playgroups and checklists — Who can play together, and the jobs that have to happen.
- The time clock — Clocking in and out, and fixing a forgotten clock-out.
- Commission — Setting what each person earns on what they sell.
