Foster Check-Ins
Get structured updates without chasing anyone
Fosters submit quick check-ins from their phone, covering how the dog ate, their energy level, and any concerns. Everything flows into the dog's record automatically. No more digging through group chats for the update someone sent three days ago.
Buddy
via Johnson FamilyPlayed fetch for 30 min, great appetite today!
Duke
via Sarah MartinezSettling in well. No issues with other dogs.
Rosie
via Mike & Jen ChenSkipped breakfast, seems nervous around loud sounds.
Quick mobile check-ins
Fosters tap through a simple form on their phone covering appetite, energy, mood, and an optional note. Takes under 30 seconds.
Automatic record keeping
Every check-in is attached to the dog's profile and timestamped. Build a complete behavioral and health timeline effortlessly.
Early warning flags
Skipped meals, low energy, or anxious mood? PupOps flags concerning patterns so coordinators can follow up before problems escalate.
The Problem
What getting updates looks like without a system
Hey everyone, quick reminder to send updates on your fosters when you get a chance!
Has anyone heard from the Johnsons about Buddy? Haven't gotten an update in a few days.
Oh sorry, Duke is doing great! Forgot to update. He ate well yesterday and went on a long walk.
Still haven't heard about Buddy. Can someone text the Johnsons directly?
I texted them. They said Buddy skipped breakfast yesterday but seems fine today? Not sure if that's a concern.
Wait, he skipped a meal yesterday and no one told me? Can you find out more details?
Updates get lost, follow-ups get delayed, and problems go unnoticed until they become emergencies. This cycle repeats every single week.
How It Works
From foster's phone to your dashboard in three steps
Foster opens the check-in form
Each foster sees only the dogs currently in their care. They tap the dog's name and start the check-in. No login required if they use their unique link.
Answer a few quick questions
Did the dog eat well? Energy level? Mood? Any concerns? Fosters can also attach a photo and add a free-text note. The whole form takes under 30 seconds.
Updates flow into the dog's record
The check-in is timestamped, attached to the dog's profile, and visible to coordinators immediately. Patterns build over time, making it easy to spot trends.
What Gets Tracked
Every check-in captures what coordinators need to know
Appetite: did the dog eat their full meal, eat partially, or skip it entirely?
Energy level: high, medium, or low, so you can track changes over time.
Mood and behavior: happy, calm, anxious, or reactive, giving you a daily snapshot of how the dog is adjusting.
Photos: optional but encouraged. Great for adoption listings, medical documentation, and keeping coordinators in the loop.
Free-text notes: anything else the foster wants to share, from training progress to funny moments.
Built for coordinators who are tired of chasing updates
Whether you're managing five fosters or fifty, the check-in system gives you a clear picture of every dog in care without sending a single follow-up text. Fosters get a quick, easy form. You get structured, reliable data.

Played fetch for 30 min, great appetite today! Learning to sit on command.
Quiet day. Napped most of the afternoon. No issues with the resident dog.
Skipped breakfast, seemed nervous during thunderstorm. Ate dinner normally.
Great day! Went on a 2-mile walk. Very friendly with neighbors' kids.
