Canine massage: book sessions at dog sport events

At an agility show or canicross race, handlers want a quick warm-up massage before their run and a recovery session after, at times that fit the running order. Turning up and hoping for walk-ins wastes your day. With Book, you open a service for the event with short slots, handlers book on your own booking page before they arrive, and you know your day before you set up.

On Book, each service has a name, a price and an optional description, all shown on your public page. Each slot belongs to one service, sits within one day and has its own capacity.

Durations and prices are examples. Name event services with the event and date.

Open slots back to back for the event day, leaving a few minutes between dogs. You create every slot, so you decide when you take breaks. If two therapists work the event, create services per therapist; slots of different services can overlap.

Say in the description where your pitch is at the venue and how to recognise it. The service name and description appear in the handler's calendar file.

The booking form takes first name, last name, email and phone, plus an optional note that reaches you in the new booking email. Ask for the dog's name, breed, age, class and approximate run time. Ask handlers to tell you about injuries in person.

An event session can lead to a full session at home. Book it yourself from your bookings list. First and last name are enough; with their email, the handler gets a confirmation with a calendar file. Say in your descriptions that your work doesn't replace a vet visit.

If an event is cancelled or the weather turns, cancel the bookings from your list and tell each handler yourself, since Book doesn't email clients about changes.

Book doesn't take payments, store animal records or send reminders. Handlers can't move or cancel online: they contact you. One booking page per business, no staff field. Book costs €5/month, everything included: unlimited services and bookings, no commission, no contract.
