Boarding and Daycare Agreement

The boarding or daycare agreement: the stay, the animal's needs, vaccination, behaviour and what happens if nobody collects them.

Where this comes from

Not a sample we wrote for this page. This is the document the product puts in your account, as a draft, the moment you say what you do.

Written for your trade

Name your trade during setup — boarding, grooming and daycare — and this is waiting for you, already written, in your words, with the blanks marked and the points a lawyer settles flagged for one. Edit it, or paste in what you already use.

It is a starting point and not legal advice: the wording is yours to change and your attorney's to check.

How it reaches your account

  1. Say what you do. Pick your trade when you set up; nothing to find or download.
  2. It is there as a draft. The 13 blanks marked, and 1 point flagged for a lawyer.
  3. Settle the notes, then send. The product will not send it with a note still in it.

How this works for boarding, grooming and daycare

What it asks you to fill in

Read off the document itself, so this list cannot drift away from what the document actually asks for.

13 blanks in this document

business namepet namepet breedpet ageguest nameservicedrop off datepick up datedatepet notesfeeding instructionsabandonment daysrate

Each one is a box on the send screen, and a value your own system can pass through the API. The rest of the wording is the same for every signer.

How they are filled

  • Once per send, from what you already know.
  • Or from your own system, through the API.
  • Into the document, never into its wording.
  • What somebody signed is the version they were shown.

Questions it can ask

Beyond the blanks, a template can ask the signer questions. These come from the product's own question library and suit this document; add them, change them, or write your own.

As the signer sees them
  • Mobile number
  • Home address
  • Emergency contact
  • Emergency contact number
  • Start date

Each question is checked where it is answered — a date that is on the calendar, a birthday that is not in the future, an address long enough to be one — in the same words on the signing page, on the counter tablet and in the API, and the signature waits until every required one is done.

  • Sections. Group questions under a heading, and give a section a page of its own.
  • Conditions. Show a question only when an earlier answer calls for it; a hidden question is never asked and never owed.
  • Flags. Put an answer in front of your staff when it needs a person, such as a safety box left unticked.
  • Questions first. Ask them before the document is shown, and the document after.

What a lawyer has to settle

These are the notes already written into the document, not our opinion about the law where you operate. The product refuses to send a document with one still in it, which is the point of them.

Check the abandoned-animal statute where you operate; the notice period and the steps are usually set by law.

SignSealer does not give legal advice and this document is not legal advice. What it does is put the questions in front of you before somebody signs, rather than after.

The document

The real text, with the blanks shown as blanks and the notes above lifted out so they are read rather than skimmed past.

Boarding and Daycare Agreement

business name takes pet name (pet breed, pet age) from guest name for service from drop off date to pick up date. Signed date.

  1. Health. pet name is current on the vaccinations business name requires and is free of fleas, ticks and contagious illness. The owner will tell staff of any condition, medication or behaviour that staff should know about: pet notes.
  2. Behaviour. The owner confirms that pet name has not bitten a person or seriously injured another animal, other than as noted here. An animal that threatens people or animals may be separated, and the owner called to collect it.
  3. Care. business name provides food, water, shelter, exercise and supervision as described at the counter. Food from home is given as instructed here: feeding instructions.
  4. Veterinary care. A separate Veterinary Authorization says what business name may do if pet name is ill or injured and what the owner will pay.
  5. Collection. Animals not collected within abandonment days days of the pick-up date, after business name has tried to reach the owner and the emergency contact, are treated as abandoned under the law where business name operates.
  6. Payment. rate per day, payable at collection, plus veterinary costs incurred under the authorization.

By signing the owner confirms that they own pet name or are authorised by the owner, and that they have read this and meant to sign it.
