What's in the box
Built around the actual job
Trainer software usually means kennel software with a training tab. PupManager is built the other way around — the training is the point.
Structured progress, not a Notes-app heap
Each session has tasks, scores, video, notes. The client sees tonight's homework before they're home from your appointment. Show a chart at the next consult — "look how much Riley has improved on the recall."
A client app worth showing off
Polished enough that prospective clients ask which gym you use. Web access for clients who won't install another app.
Scheduling that knows it's a session
Package credits, buffer time, recurring slots, partner calendar visibility. Reschedule from one link instead of a 3-message text thread.
Group classes, cohorts, make-ups
Run a 6-week series with cohort enrollment, attendance per team in two taps, automatic make-up tracking.
Who it's for
Built for working trainers, not facilities
Solo or small team. Private and group. The credentialed pro on a duct-tape stack.

We're just getting started
One tool. Replaces five.
Acuity for scheduling, Mailchimp for client email, Thinkific for course content, a Notion doc per client, a Google Sheet you don't trust. Roughly $170 a month, and the real cost is the 8–11 hours a week of admin that doesn't bill.
PupManager replaces the stack and the admin overhead it forces on you.

Who's behind this
Built next to working trainers
We started building PupManager because the trainers we know are great at training dogs and tired of being half-decent secretaries. Every feature in the product traces back to a specific moment a trainer told us about — the 9:47 pm reschedule text, the Sunday afternoon Stripe reconcile, the client who quietly left because they couldn't see their progress.
We're a small team, we ship fast, and we answer our own email.
From the field
What trainers are saying
"Replace with a real trainer quote. Aim for 1–2 sentences. Specific beats general. "Cut my Sunday admin from three hours to twenty minutes" beats "love this product.""

"Real testimonial slot. Best ones name a specific pain — the 9pm reschedule, the lost client, the no-show fee. Shorter is better."

"Real testimonial slot. Mix credentials (KPA, CCPDT, IAABC) into the byline if the trainer holds them — adds trust without saying it explicitly."
