Features & Product Tips
At Cuddles, we want to empower you, the groomer, to take charge of your resources and become hyper productive, instead of hyper stressed.
One of the ways we’re achieving this is with the Cuddles Smart Calendar 🧠📅. An intuitive tool with the power to completely transform your scheduling process.
Our calendar calculates appointment requirements based on pet profiles and staff preferences and then shows you only the times that are available in your schedule.
Not Magic, Just Math
Our smart calendar might seem like it’s performing magic tricks behind the screen, but it’s really just doing all the math of juggling staff schedules, service durations, and pet specifics for you.
We take care of the math so your brain can be free to explore more creative ideas 💡 for your business.
Here’s how you can take back some of your headspace with the help of Cuddles Smart Calendar:
3 Steps to Scheduling Success
“Service duration + staff availability = smart appointments 🧠”
1 Setup services duration ⏰
During your initial setup of services within the Cuddles, you’ll start by selecting the time required for each. You can even customize your services so that the duration of the service type selected automatically adjusts based on pet size.
2 Connect staff to services 🙋
Next you’ll link staff members to the services they provide & set up each staff member’s availability.
3 Schedule smart appointments ✌
When you’re ready to schedule an appointment, The Cuddles Smart Calendar will use this information to calculate which staff are available for the required service duration based on the pet’s size and any other specifics you added during setup.
Now you can pick from a selection of appointment times that exactly match scheduling needs for the specific pet and service type required.
