Playgroup Compatibility Form: 250 Pack
Properly assessing a dog's compatibility for off-leash play on the first day is vital to the success of your playgroups. We've designed a comprehensive evaluation sheet that helps the staff identify behaviors in the playgroups and whether those behaviors are compatible for the daycare environment. The form also helps owners understand thoroughly how their dog responded to daycare and why the staff made their decision.
The front of the form continues behaviors for the staff to mark if/when noticed by the dog during the evaluation. The back of the form gives staff space to write out a detailed description of the day and add in cute extras like which staff worked with the dog and if any new friends were made.
Comes in packs of 250 sheets. Save money if you buy 3. To receive discount you'll add the "3 Pack" product to your cart instead of this one. FREE SHIPPING to the contiguous US. We can provide shipping outside of this range for additional fees.
Playgroup Dismissal Forms: 250 Pack
Whether failing a dog on the day of the evaluation or dismissing a dog that's been attending daycare for a while, it's never easy. Our dismissal forms allow you to easily communicate with the owner the reason for their dog's dismissal. It allows staff to select a specific behavior for the dismissal and gives the client a detailed reason why that behavior isn't compatible with your playgroups.
The back features a large area for writing in a detailed description as well as a place where you can recommend boarding options for their next visit. If you don't offer private boarding options this would be an excellent place to recommend a facility nearby that you trust. It helps the clients feel that you care about their dog even if daycare isn't the place for him/her.
Comes in packs of 250 sheets. Save money if you buy 3. To receive discount you'll add the "3 Pack" product to your cart instead of this one. FREE SHIPPING to the contiguous US. We can provide shipping outside of this range for additional fees.
Overnight Instructions w/ Visit Notes for Parents: 250 Pack
Most kennel and daycare software has the ability to create "run cards" for guests. I've found those run cards to be either more detailed than we needed, less detailed, not very aesthetically pleasing, and definitely not something I would want to send home with a client.
We've designed overnight instruction sheets that are multi-functional:
- Name, description, feeding instructions, etc.
- Includes special handling notes that might only apply to this visit
- An area to write out medicine instructions simply and a chart allowing staff to sign off once given, this gives the owners a record that all meds were given as instructed
- Area for quick health checks upon arrival, mid-visit (when needed), and on day of departure
- A report card area where staff can write fun notes about the dog's stay (including favorite friends and activities)
Before the pet goes home, we review the instruction sheet, add a couple of stickers, write cute notes, and then include the sheet with the dog's belongings. Owners love our detailed approach to recording specifics for their pets' stay and love reading the staff notes.
Comes in packs of 250 sheets. Save money if you buy 3. To receive discount you'll add the "3 Pack" product to your cart instead of this one. FREE SHIPPING to the contiguous US. We can provide shipping outside of this range for additional fees.
Play Group Information Dry Erase Board
Communication is key when managing off-leash play groups. Our dry erase boards help keep daily notes in one place and reminds staff of the importance issues and behaviors they should be taking note of. There is room for the AM supervisor's name, PM supervisor name, health notes, play notes and a section for "dogs to watch out for" and "why". The board measures 18" tall, 24" wide.

Employee Handbook
This is the employee handbook used at all Pawtropolis locations. It has evolved over the last 16 years and has become an all inclusive manual for those starting into a dog daycare position. This handbook is designed for use at Pawtropolis, however, with minor tweaking and editing, it can be customized for your business. Having the exact manual we use will also give you hints, tips, and ideas that can be included in your handbook and perhaps new policies to implement. The handbook is 24 pages long. Table of Contents is pictured here. This also includes a separate Google sheet that we use to track each employee. It automatically calculates request and attendance points. Gives you way to track performance both good and bad. A very useful tool in managing multiple employees.
After payment received you'll be able to download a "word" and "pdf" file of the handbook. The "word" file will allow you to customize, the "pdf" file will allow you to see the final product in case formatting gets messed up when opened on your computer.
If you're not handy with "word" and would like for me to "make it pretty" once you're done customizing it, you'll want to purchase the "Employee Handbook w/ Editing". That option also provides time for emails for any questions that might arise as you're developing your own policies.

Employment Application & Pre-Screening Document
Over the last 16 years we've discovered that it takes a unique breed of person to work in the doggie daycare industry. We look for people that don't mind cleaning and getting dirty that can also shine with customer service. They need to be available to work during peak times, and, of course, have confidence with dogs. Our employment application (referred to as our Pack Member Application) is several pages long. Some questions you may not need or want. We'll provide you with both a word version to customize and a pdf version so you can see it properly formatted.
I am also including our Pre-Screening document. This is used by the staff member that accepted the application allowing them to write down their first impression and passing along that information to the hiring manager/owner. This is useful if you have people accepting applications that aren't actually the ones responsible for making hiring decisions.
