A Customizable Dashboard and Tables
Shape your daily overview around the work your team does most. Dashboard widgets and table columns give you more choice over what appears in the workspace.
- Your Daily Overview: Bring pending adoptions, foster availability, overdue tasks, and recent intakes together in dashboard widgets you can arrange around your workflow.
- Choose Your Table Columns: Show the information your team uses, such as microchip numbers, and hide less useful columns to keep busy lists easier to scan.
- Care and Placement Summaries: Review adoption, foster, intake, and task activity from the same overview, then open the records you want to work on.
- Flexible Dashboard Sections: Separate dashboard modules let you tailor the overview as your organization’s priorities and routines change.

Guided Imports and International Data
Move existing records into PawPlacer with a full-screen import guide. Field mapping, flexible date recognition, and relationship linking help your team bring across useful context from its current tools.
- A Step-by-Step Import Guide: Upload a file by dragging it into the wizard, map its columns, and follow progress through a full-screen workflow that keeps each stage in view.
- Flexible Date and Value Recognition: The importer recognizes more than 40 date formats and common Yes/No variations, helping spreadsheets from different sources fit the destination fields.
- Linked Pets and People: Carry foster and adopter relationships into the import so the resulting records preserve the connections your team already uses.
- International Contact Details: Import phone numbers and other contact data from international sources while retaining useful formatting for your records.
- Clearer Pet Status Management: A tidier pet status screen makes it easier to review the status choices used throughout your organization.

Drivers, Age Groups, and Volunteer Records
Keep dedicated driver profiles, define pet age groups that fit your organization, and review volunteer information in a clearer layout.
- Dedicated Driver Profiles: Keep drivers in their own records and use route and time details to follow planned transport work.
- Your Own Pet Age Categories: Configure age categories and display preferences to match how your organization describes puppies, adults, seniors, and other age groups.
- Volunteer Record Presentation: More consistent volunteer data formatting makes directory entries and related details easier to read.
