Your groomers and kennel staff already live in Google Calendar on their phones. Animal Friends OS syncs appointments directly to their Google Calendars so they see their schedule without opening another app. Bookings, boarding stays, daycare sessions, and training appointments appear as calendar events with all the details.
Animal Friends OS is the only pet care software that lets you bring your own payment processor, your own SMS provider, and your own accounting system. Competitors force you onto their stack and charge you for the privilege.
Each staff member connects their Google account from the Animal Friends OS dashboard. The system creates a dedicated calendar called "Animal Friends OS" in their Google Calendar. Every appointment assigned to that staff member syncs as a calendar event with the client name, pet name, service type, and notes in the event description. New bookings, reschedules, and cancellations update in near real time.
Grooming appointments, boarding check-in and checkout dates, daycare sessions, training sessions, and blocked-off time sync from Animal Friends OS to Google Calendar. Event titles show the client and pet name. Event descriptions include service details, special instructions, and contact information. Color coding matches your Animal Friends OS calendar colors.
Enable two-way sync to let staff block off personal time in Google Calendar and have it reflect as unavailable in Animal Friends OS. If a groomer blocks noon to one PM for lunch in Google Calendar, that slot becomes unbookable in the online booking widget. Two-way sync is optional and can be enabled per staff member.
Step one: open Settings, then Integrations, then Google Calendar in Animal Friends OS. Step two: sign in with Google and grant calendar access. Step three: select which staff members should sync. Step four: existing appointments populate into Google Calendar within a few minutes. New appointments sync in real time from that point forward.
Your staff checks their phone to see what is next. If your pet software schedule is not on their phone, they have to walk to a computer or ask the front desk. Google Calendar sync puts the schedule in their pocket. They get push notifications for new bookings. They see tomorrow's lineup before they leave tonight. It is a small integration that makes a big difference in daily operations.
