Feeding & Medication Logs
Running a boarding or daycare facility means balancing pet care with record-keeping requirements. Many states require detailed logs of feedings and medications given to animals in your care. Until now, you may have had to rely on separate systems to track this information.
With Feeding & Medication Logs in Time To Pet, you can now manage these records directly in your account, simplifying compliance and helping your team stay organized.
Key capabilities
With Feeding & Medication Logs, your team can:
Log what type of food or medication was given.
Record the exact amount or dosage.
Track the date, time, and the staff member who completed the task.
Add notes for special instructions or observations.
Monitor status: Scheduled, Completed, Overdue, Missed, Unavailable or Other.
Adding & Editing Feeding And Medication Schedules To Pet Profiles
Feeding and Medication Schedules are set on each pet's profile.
You can set up schedules on each pet’s profile by first navigating to the pet profile that needs a Feeding or Medication schedule added to it. When you add calendar events for a pet, Time To Pet generates the daily logs based on their feeding and medication schedules set on each pets' profile.
