Set up rooms and put a pet in one
Set up rooms or kennels for boarding, then put each pet in a room when it checks in.
Before you start: Needs a boarding or board-and-train service. The business owner, or staff who can open Settings, adds the rooms.
Steps
- Open Settings (on a phone: More, then Settings). Tap "Identity & Facility" and go to "Rooms / Pens".
- Tap "+ Add Room" to add one room. To add many, tap "Add multiple". Fill in three fields: "How many", "Name prefix" and "Type". Then tap the button that adds the rooms.
- Change a room’s name, type or "Capacity" in its row. "Capacity" is the most pets the room can hold at one time. Changes save by themselves.
- When you check in a boarding pet, petboard shows "Assign Room". Tap a free room, or tap "Skip — Check in without room".
- To move a pet later, open Bookings and tap "Show details" on its card. Next to "Room", tap the room name or "Unassigned".
If this does not work
- You want to see every room and who is in it: open Rooms (on a phone: More, then Rooms).
- You do not see "Assign Room" at check-in: you have no rooms yet, or the pet already has a room.
- You do not see "Rooms / Pens": it shows only if you offer boarding or board-and-train.
