Dog Training management system
Client · Dog Behaviourist
A complete web app built for a dog training franchise drowning in spreadsheets. The system replaces eight disconnected Excel files with one powerful, easy-to-use platform. It manages clients, dogs, classes, trainers, finances, and franchise reporting — all from a single dashboard. What used to be a tangle of copy-paste and manual updates is now a seamless, automated workflow that keeps everything in sync.
The challenge
The business was operating entirely out of multiple spreadsheets — one for clients and dogs, another for classes, another for payments to trainers, and more for finances and franchise reporting. Each process required copying and pasting data between tabs and sheets.
Managing enrollments meant moving contact info manually. Trainer payments had to be calculated by hand. Financial summaries were stitched together every quarter.
The entire system was fragile, slow, and prone to errors. If one formula broke, it caused cascading chaos. Reporting was stressful, time-consuming, and offered little real visibility into the business.
What the owner needed was a single, centralized solution to replace every spreadsheet, connect the moving parts, and give her a reliable, real-time picture of her operations.
The system we built
We built a custom web application that unifies all those processes into one connected system.
The app includes a full client and dog CRM, class management tools, attendance tracking, trainer payment automation, invoicing, and live financial dashboards.
When a client is added to a class, the system automatically generates invoices, logs attendance, and updates financial records. Trainers’ payouts are automatically calculated, and franchise reports can be produced in seconds.
The entire platform is cloud-based, secure, and mobile-friendly — allowing the team to manage the business from anywhere.
The interface was designed to be intuitive and clear, so the owner and trainers could focus on what matters: helping dogs and their owners, not fighting with spreadsheets.
The outcome
The franchise owner went from juggling eight spreadsheets to managing everything from a single login.
What once took hours of copying, calculating, and reconciling now happens instantly and accurately.
Trainer payments are automated, clients are billed correctly, and financial reporting that once took days can be done in minutes.
The business finally has total visibility into operations — confident that every class, client, and payment is accounted for.
The owner now says she spends her time growing the business instead of fixing spreadsheets.
