Field guide
Use six focused sections to create a logical check-in path and usable record.
Guest and stay
Use the identifiers staff already rely on to prevent confusion between similar names or related guests.
Pet profile
Use a repeating section so staff can distinguish multiple animals and apply property rules consistently.
Care information
Ask only for care information the property uses for staff follow-up.
Fees and room care
State fees exactly, including whether they apply per stay, night, or pet, then explain room access.
Property rules
Group room, shared-space, quiet, relief-area, and contact guidance for easy scanning.
Acknowledgment
Place required checkboxes and a name or signature immediately after the relevant policy text.
