Mobile staff app

Capture the work where it happens.

Staff can reach dog profiles, document care and training, add notes, and share photos or video without returning to a front-desk computer.

  • Fast dog and client lookup
  • Training sessions and practiced skills
  • Photo and video updates
  • Daily status and care notes

Desktop administration

See the whole operation clearly.

Owners and administrators get a focused desktop workspace for the decisions that need a wider view: schedules, approvals, capacity, staffing, clients, and dogs.

  • Central reservation approvals
  • Kennel capacity at a glance
  • Staff schedules and blackouts
  • Facility-wide client and dog records

Reservations and check-in

Move from request to arrival with less friction.

Clients request services while your team keeps final control. Approved visits flow into schedules, capacity planning, required forms, and digital check-in.

  • Online reservation requests
  • Service availability rules
  • Digital forms and signatures
  • Arrival instructions and handoff details

Client experience

Turn everyday updates into lasting trust.

A branded portal gives pet parents one place for reservations, training progress, media, forms, and the information your kennel chooses to share.

  • Branded client portal
  • Training milestones and session history
  • Reservation status and upcoming stays
  • Email and SMS communication

Common questions

Clear answers for kennel operators.

01Can kennels turn features on or off?

Yes. Kennels control their services, reservation workflows, communication options, and which major modules appear in the client experience.

02Do staff and administrators use the same screen?

They use the same connected data, but each role receives a focused interface. Staff work from a mobile-first experience while administrators use a broader desktop workspace.

03Does Side by Sides K9 support training and boarding?

Yes. The platform is designed for boarding, board and train, day training, appointments, and private lessons, with training records built into the core system.
