Sound familiar?

Running dogs is the easy part. It’s the rest that piles up.

  • “How’s my dog doing?”

    The same text from every owner, every week, while you’re out running dogs.

  • Billing night.

    Board, training and entry fees, rebuilt from a notebook and your texts at the end of the month.

  • The rabies date is… somewhere.

    Vaccine dates on scraps of paper, in the glovebox, on the back of a feed receipt.

  • Papers in a shoebox.

    Pedigrees, registration papers and placements, spread across folders, phones and photo rolls.

The 45-second tour

See the app in the field.

No sound. Captions on screen. Example dogs and clients.

The Kennel fixes that

One app. Everything in its place.

01For trainers

Clients see their dog’s progress without calling you.

Every client gets their own Clubhouse and My Kennel in your colors: photos and video of their dog, weekly field reports, vaccines, wins, and messages with you, right on their phone.

  • Weekly field reports, with a reminder for you
  • Dog of the Week and your kennel news
  • Your logo and colors on their home screen
02For trainers

The bill adds itself up all month long.

Set a monthly rate per dog and add any extra, like birds or a lesson, with + Charge. Approved trial entry fees land on the statement too. Clients see a running statement all month, with invoice PDFs and a Venmo button.

  • The Venmo button opens with the amount filled in
  • Record payments by Venmo, check, cash or card
  • The Kennel never moves money or marks a bill paid by itself
03For trainers & owners

Every record in your pocket. A field log that works with no signal.

Each dog has its own page with photos and video, wins, vaccines, heat cycles, pedigree and your notes. Out training, the Quick point log times each run with one tap. No signal? The entry saves on your phone and sends later.

  • Vaccines due and overdue, at a glance
  • Flags any dog missing a rabies date or microchip
  • Your GPS spot is never shown to owners

Is your dog with a trainer? You don’t need a plan.

If your trainer runs their kennel on The Kennel, they invite you to their Clubhouse. Their plan covers your sign-in. Then follow your dog from your phone:

  • Progress: photos, video and weekly field reports
  • News from the kennel, and messages with your trainer
  • Statements, invoice PDFs and a Venmo pay button

Trainer not on The Kennel yet? Send it to them.

Sharing opens on your own phone, so it comes from you. The Kennel doesn’t email or text anyone.

Built by a kennel

Made in a working kennel, not a software office.

The Kennel was built inside a working kennel, around the week every trainer knows: dogs out training in the morning, owners asking for news by noon, trial entries to sort out, and the bill at the end of the month.

Straight answers

Before you start.

Do my clients have to pay for The Kennel?

No. Your Trainer plan covers your kennel and your clients. Clients get in free with the sign-in link you send them from your phone.

My dog is with a trainer. Do I need a plan?

No. Your trainer invites you, and your sign-in is covered by their Trainer plan. You’ll get a link from your trainer to set up your Clubhouse sign-in. If your trainer isn’t on The Kennel yet, send it to them →

Is it hard to set up?

No. A guided setup walks you through your kennel, your first client and your first dog, and every step has Skip for now. Nothing is sent to anyone until you choose. Want to see it first? Read the setup guide →

Does it work with no signal?

Yes, for the Quick point log. Out in the cover, the entry saves on your phone and sends once you have signal again.

Does The Kennel handle the money?

No. Clients pay you the way they do now. The Venmo button opens Venmo with the amount filled in, and you record each payment by Venmo, check, cash, card or other. The Kennel never moves money and never marks a bill paid by itself.

What happens after 14 days?

Your 14-day trial is free and needs no card. When it ends, you’ll see “Thank you for trying The Kennel. Please subscribe if you wish to continue.” Nothing is billed unless you subscribe.

Can I cancel?

Cancel any time from Plan & billing. You keep access through the end of the period you paid for (no partial refunds), and your data is kept if you come back.

Phone or computer?

Both. On iPhone or iPad, open it in Safari and tap Share → Add to Home Screen. On Android, add it from the browser menu. It opens full screen, with nothing to download from an app store. On a computer you get a wider two-column layout. On iPhone, alerts work once it’s on your Home Screen.

Your kennel,
finally organized.
