Who this template is for

Kennel Boarding Intake is built for small teams who need a reliable intake process who need to collect the same complete information from everyone.

  • Small teams who need a reliable intake process working in pets & veterinary.
  • Teams who need to collect the same complete information from everyone without writing code or paying for a custom build.
  • Anyone replacing chasing missing details over email with one structured record per enquiry.
  • Respondents are the people you send it to — the form asks them 36 questions across 2 screens.

Why this form is useful

It removes the cost of chasing missing details over email and turns each submission into a record your team can act on immediately.

  • 26 questions are required, so submissions arrive complete instead of needing a follow-up email.
  • It captures a phone number for urgent follow-up.
  • It records a signature you can keep as proof of agreement.
  • It pins the request to a specific date.
  • It allows multiple selections without free text.
  • It captures a numeric value you can filter and sort on.
  • Conditional logic hides 4 questions until they are relevant — shorter forms convert better than long ones.
  • Splitting the form across 2 pages keeps each screen short and shows respondents how much is left.

Logic and conditions blueprint

Exactly how this form behaves as it is answered — 4 conditional rules ship with it.

  • Features conditional validation: if “Is the pet on medication?” is Yes, “Medication, dose, times and how it is given” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Can the pet share a run or space?” is No, “Why they need to be alone” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Will you be reachable during the stay?” is No, I will be abroad, “Second contact who can make decisions” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • Features conditional validation: if “Is food provided by you?” is Yes, “How much food you have left with us” becomes mandatory before the form can be sent.
  • All 4 rules are editable in the Logic tab, and the built-in checker warns about rules that contradict each other.

Questions about this shared form

How is this different from a boarding booking form?

A booking reserves dates and takes payment. This is the arrival record: feeding schedule, medication, emergency vet and behaviour notes staff work from daily.

Should it be completed at drop-off?

Better to send it a few days before, so the owner can check dosages at home rather than remember them in a busy reception.

Do you need vaccination records?

Almost always. The confirmation records that they were provided, and the vaccination record form is a good way to collect them.

What if the owner cannot be reached?

That is exactly what the second contact and the authorisation limit are for, and both should be filled in before the stay starts.

Is the Kennel Boarding Intake template free to use?

Yes. You can preview and test Kennel Boarding Intake on this page without an account, and take a copy into your own HelloForms workspace on the free plan. There is nothing to install and no card required to publish it.
