Intake Forms and E-Signatures for Boarding Kennels

Make check-in smoother for pets, pet parents, and your team.

Create digital intake forms for boarding stays, collect key details ahead of arrival, and capture agreements in one tidy workflow. With flexible form fields, client records, file uploads, booking tools, and built-in agreement checkboxes, you can keep the paperwork moving without the paper cuts.

Collect the Right Details Before Drop-Off

Every boarding stay comes with questions. Your forms should handle them with ease.

Use customizable form fields to gather:

• Pet and owner contact information
• Emergency contacts
• Feeding instructions
• Medication details
• Behavior notes
• Vaccination files and other documents
• Arrival and departure preferences
• Policies and care acknowledgments

Breely forms support a wide range of question types, including short text, long text, dates, yes/no, dropdowns, file uploads, phone numbers, and client contact fields. There’s also an Agree to Terms question type that requires clients to confirm policies before continuing.

Built for Pet Care Workflows, Not Just Generic Forms

Boarding kennels need more than a blank form and a hope for the best.

Forms can be organized into sections, reordered easily, and set up with conditional logic so follow-up questions appear only when needed. For example:

• Show medication questions only if a pet needs meds
• Ask for feeding instructions only for overnight stays
• Display first-time boarding questions for new clients
• Route clients to different next steps based on their answers

That means shorter forms for simple stays and smarter forms for more detailed care needs.

Keep Client and Pet Information Organized

When someone fills out a form, the system can use client contact information to look up an existing record or create a new one automatically. That helps your team keep information connected instead of scattered across inboxes, sticky notes, and the front desk clipboard of mystery.

You can also:

• Customize labels for non-human bookings, such as using “Dog Name”
• Let returning clients log in
• Pre-fill forms with past information for repeat submissions
• Collect uploaded files like pet photos or documents

For busy kennels, that means less repeated typing and faster check-in for returning guests.

Pair Intake Forms with Booking and Follow-Ups

If your kennel also schedules tours, evaluations, daycare visits, or boarding-related appointments, forms can include booking tools directly in the flow. Appointment-based forms can also trigger automations for confirmations, reminders, and follow-up messages.

You can share forms in the way that works best for your business:

• Send a direct link privately
• Embed the form on your website
• Use pop-up forms on key pages
• Keep certain forms internal for staff-only workflows

Forms are private by default unless shared, which is useful for internal intake or admin-assisted bookings.

A Friendlier Experience for Pet Parents

No one loves paperwork at drop-off time.

A polished digital intake flow helps clients complete forms before arrival, review your policies clearly, and submit everything in one place. You can even customize branding with your logo, colors, fonts, and thank-you page messaging to create a more professional experience from the first click to the final tail wag.
