Pet Photography Booking Form
A pet photography booking form needs to know how the animal behaves in a new place, because that determines whether the shoot is in a studio, at home, or on a familiar walk.
For groomers, dog walkers, boarding kennels, sitters and vets.
The animal's temperament decides the location
A confident dog will happily work in a studio. A nervous rescue will spend an hour behind its owner's legs, and every frame will show it. Choosing the location before the day is the single biggest factor in whether the shoot works.
So this template asks how the animal is in unfamiliar places, whether it has recall, and what it will work for - treats, a squeaky toy, a favourite ball. Those three answers are what a pet photographer actually needs, and they're never in an enquiry email.
Stop booking by phone tag
Half your owners would rather book at 10pm than call at 10am, and the ones who do call reach a voicemail while you're working. Every missed call is a booking that went somewhere open.
A request form takes bookings while you're busy, asleep or driving - with the details you need written down rather than remembered.
The animal's details, not just the owner's
Breed, age, temperament, vaccinations, vet contact, whether they can be with other dogs - these decide whether you can take a booking at all, and they never arrive in the first message.
Asked on a form, you get them once, in writing, for every animal - including the awkward ones about biting and anxiety that owners will admit on a form and downplay on a call.
It's a request, not a calendar takeover
You stay in control: requests arrive, you confirm the ones that work. No syncing, no double-booking, nothing to install - just the details you need in the order you need them.
Yours to change, immediately
Nothing here is fixed. Rewrite a question, reorder them by dragging, add your brand colour, delete half of it. Save and the live form updates - there's no separate publish step and no deploy to wait for.

Questions
Should owners bring treats and toys?
Yes, and ask what works - a specific squeaky toy will out-perform any professional trick. Ask about dietary restrictions too, so you don't hand over something they can't have.
How long should a pet session be?
Shorter than a human one. Ask about the animal's attention span and plan around it; the best frames usually come in the first twenty minutes.
Does this book the slot automatically?
No - it collects a request, and you confirm it. That's deliberate: real diaries have exceptions, and a form that promises a slot you can't honour costs more than one that asks.
Can I limit the options people can pick?
Yes. The service and time-of-day lists are yours to edit, so people can only choose from what you actually offer. You can also close the form when you're full.
Will I know straight away?
Yes, if you want to be. Turn on live notifications and every request is emailed to you the moment it arrives; otherwise collect them and read them in your dashboard.
Can I ask for vaccination or vet details?
Yes - dates, vet name and practice phone number are ordinary questions here, and having them written down before the first visit is exactly what insurers expect.
