Note: Before you can view scheduled Repeat Services, you need to have completed the tutorial section Tutorial: 6-3 Schedule a Repeat Service.


Your Pet Sitter Plus software will come pre-configured with several example client accounts for you to use during your coaching, and each of these clients also has one or two service orders that have various services scheduled. In Tutorial: 6-1 Schedule a Service you created a service order with repeat services, and in this section we will see how your order displays in the schedule and how you can edit a service from the schedule.


There are three main views of the scheduling information held in Pet Sitter Plus, the Schedule "List" view, "Column" view and "Compact" view.

All of these views show the same scheduling information and offer the same functionality, just presented in different ways. Different businesses will prefer using one of the views depending on the type of services they offer and the way in which they prefer to work.

Once you have viewed your service order and repeat service in the schedule and feel ready to learn more, you can read about the options available in Pet Sitter Plus for working with The Schedule.

3. The "Detail + or –" options allow staff/admins to view more or less detail, dependent on their staff permissions. This means the business owner can hide all financial detail from the schedule, and also hide staff notes if applicable.

Below is an explanation of a simple schedule entry. In "List View" and "Compact View" it is presented slightly differently but the information contained is the same.

There are other options that will be seen when you start to use marking jobs as acknowledged and completed, when you add notes to a service, when you send clients a service report, and when you issue keys via Pet Sitter Plus. Once you have completed your coaching, you can read more about this in the Schedule.
