Pet Owner Onboarding

Our onboarding process for pet owners is designed to help them feel confident and connected to their pet’s care from the very start. By setting up detailed profiles, meeting care providers, and getting familiar with our app features, pet owners can fully engage in their pets’ experiences.

1. Profile Customization
Creating a comprehensive profile for each pet allows our caregivers to understand every detail of their needs. Our platform guides pet owners through the process of setting up a profile with detailed information, including:

• Animal Type and Breed: Pet species, breed, and specific characteristics.

• Dietary Requirements: Feeding schedules, dietary restrictions, and preferred brands or food types.

• Health Information: Medical history, current medications, and any special health considerations.

• Temperament and Behavior: Information about the pet’s personality, social preferences, and any specific behavioral notes.

This customized profile helps our caregivers provide personalized and effective care, ensuring that each pet’s unique requirements are respected.

2. Meet & Greet with Specialized Care Providers
Before starting any service, pet owners have the opportunity to meet their chosen care provider. The Meet & Greet allows pet owners to ask questions, discuss specific needs, and observe the interaction between their pet and the caregiver. Our providers are familiar with the unique needs of different pet types, from dogs and cats to birds, reptiles, and more, making this an excellent opportunity to build trust and establish comfort.

3. App Training and Features Overview
Our app provides powerful tools for pet owners to monitor their pets’ care and schedule services. During onboarding, pet owners receive a guided overview of key features, including:

• Booking and Scheduling: How to book services, set reminders, and manage appointments.

• GPS Tracking and Activity Logging: Real-time tracking of walks, playtime, and other activities.

• Notifications and Updates: How to receive and customize notifications for daily updates, progress, and care status.

This training ensures that pet owners feel confident using the app, keeping them connected and informed throughout their pet’s experience.

 

Provider Onboarding

Our providers go through a rigorous onboarding process to ensure they’re fully prepared to deliver quality care across a range of pet types. This process includes background checks, species-specific training, certification opportunities, and in-app tool training for seamless pet monitoring.

1. Background Checks and Screening
We prioritize safety and reliability by conducting comprehensive background checks on all providers. This process includes:

• Identity Verification: Confirming the identity of each provider to ensure trustworthiness.

• Reference Checks: Reviewing references from previous work or clients to confirm experience and reliability.

• Background Screening: A full background check to ensure a safe environment for pets and peace of mind for pet owners.

Only providers who pass these screening steps move forward to the training and certification stages.

2. Species-Specific Training for Pet Needs
Each provider undergoes training tailored to the specific needs of the pets they’ll care for. Training modules cover a wide range of skills and information, ensuring providers are prepared for the unique characteristics of different species:

• Dogs and Cats: Basic obedience handling, socialization techniques, and health monitoring.

• Birds: Safe handling, cage maintenance, and understanding avian behavior.

• Reptiles: Proper tank maintenance, temperature and humidity control, and safe handling techniques.

• Fish and Aquatic Pets: Tank cleaning, water quality monitoring, and safe feeding practices.

• Poultry and Small Mammals: Proper enclosure setup, dietary needs, and care for specific behavioral traits.

This specialized training helps each provider become proficient in meeting the needs of the pets they’ll be caring for, ensuring safety, comfort, and consistent care.

3. Certification Programs for Unique Animal Care
Providers have the option to complete additional certifications in unique animal care, allowing them to further specialize in handling pets with specific requirements. Certifications are available for:

• Avian Care: Covering topics such as feather health, dietary needs, and environmental enrichment for birds.

• Reptile Care: Including modules on species-specific health monitoring, temperature regulation, and habitat management.

• Small Mammal and Aquatic Pet Care: Covering health indicators, tank/enclosure maintenance, and handling procedures.

These certifications allow providers to develop expertise in unique areas, adding value to their skill set and enhancing the quality of care available on our platform.

4. In-App Tool Training for Monitoring and Communication
To ensure seamless communication and effective pet monitoring, providers receive training on all in-app tools. This includes:

• GPS Tracking and Check-In Tools: Training on how to activate GPS tracking for walks, check-ins, and other activities to keep pet owners updated.

• Activity Logging: Recording each interaction with the pet, including feeding, playtime, medication administration, and exercise.

• Photo and Video Updates: How to capture and share media with pet owners, providing them with visual updates and progress reports.
