Kennel Software for Trainers Running Board-and-Train Programs

Software designed for trainers who board dogs while training them. Manage training sessions, document progress, and keep owners informed.

Why This Breaks in Most Kennel Software

Standard kennel software is built for boarding kennels, not training facilities. As a trainer running board-and-train, your primary workflow is training sessions, not just check-ins and check-outs.

You need to log daily training sessions, track behavioral progress, communicate results to owners, and provide graduation documentation. Booking systems do not support this.

Trainers need software that treats training as the core workflow, not a note field in a boarding system.

How Pet Ops Supports This Workflow

  • Training session logs: Document what happened in each session with structured notes
  • Progress tracking: Track improvement on specific behaviors over weeks
  • Owner updates: Keep owners informed with photos and progress summaries
  • Mobile logging: Record sessions from your phone during or after training
  • Graduation summaries: Generate documentation of what was accomplished

Progress tracking: skill stages and homework owners can see.

Training Documentation That Shows Progress

As a trainer, your reputation depends on visible results. Owners need to see evidence their investment is working.

Pet Ops structures documentation so progress is clear. Session logs build into timelines. Graduation summaries show what the dog learned and what owners need to maintain.

Built-In Client Updates Without Extra Work

Owners paying for board-and-train expect frequent updates. You do not have time to write separate emails or make phone calls.

Pet Ops makes updates part of your daily workflow. Add photos during sessions. Write quick notes. Owners see everything in their timeline automatically.
