Getting started
Set up boarding
Prepare boarding hours, rooms, pricing, client requirements, and communication before you create the first stay.
Set your business basics
Start with the organization-wide details used throughout the panel and in client-facing views.
- Open Settings > Profile and confirm the display name, logo, panel address, language, and currency.
- Open Settings > Requirements and select the species you accept. Configure deworming and vaccination requirements if you collect this information from clients.
- Save each settings page before moving to the next one.
Configure the boarding workflow
- Open Settings > Boarding and choose the default reservation status.
- Set the standard arrival and departure windows, then add weekday overrides where your hours differ.
- Choose excluded weekdays, add closure periods, and enter instructions shown for a stay.
- Open Rooms and add each room with its capacity, accepted species, and any room-specific price.
Prepare prices and client communication
- Use Pricing for base prices, conditional rules, and optional services.
- Use Settings > Pricing & tax for day-counting, tax, deposit, and payment-link defaults.
- Use Settings > Online booking to decide whether clients can submit requests and which fields they see.
- Use Settings > Notifications to choose which boarding events send email or SMS messages.
Check the setup
Create one test stay from Reservations and review its room, dates, price, requirements, status, and client messages. Correct the relevant setting before entering live reservations.
