Send report cards and photo updates

Share photos, a mood and a note from each visit or stay, straight to the pet parent.

Updated Jun 29, 2026

A report card is the little moment of delight that keeps clients loyal: a few photos, a mood, and a note from their pet's visit or stay, sent straight to them. Here's how to put one together and send it in under a minute.

In a nutshell

  • Add photos (or a short video), a mood and a quick note from the visit or stay.
  • Send it and the parent gets it in their portal and as a notification.
  • Parents can reply — a warm touchpoint that builds loyalty and referrals.
  • Works for a single visit or a multi-day stay.

Add photos, a mood and a note, then send the report card to the owner.
  1. Open the booking, visit or stay and start a report card.
  2. Add a few photos or a short video, pick a mood, and write a quick note.
  3. Send it to the owner.

A photo or two and one warm sentence is plenty — the point is the moment, not a long write-up.

Where the parent sees it

A parent with their own portal account sees the report card in their portal and gets a notification, and can reply. If they don't have an account yet, invite them to their portal first so the report card has somewhere to land.

Common questions

Do I need the mobile app to send a report card?

The app is the easiest way to add photos and video on the go, but you can also put a report card together from the portal.

Can I include a video?

Yes. As well as photos, you can attach a short video so parents see their pet in action.

Does the client need a portal account to receive it?

They see report cards in their pet-parent portal, so invite them first. Once invited, each new report card also triggers a notification.

Can the parent reply to a report card?

Yes — replies come back to you, making the report card a quick two-way moment rather than a one-off send.
