How to run it

Three steps before drop-off

1. Write the med schedule once

   AM/PM with food or empty stomach. Photos of bottles help.

2. Pin the ER

   Name the after-hours clinic you actually use in Boston.

3. Share a read-only link

   Sitters in Boston should not hunt through your camera roll.

4. Add boarding vaccines as backup

   If the sitter cancels, the same digital passport should satisfy a Boston kennel desk.

5. Name the file like a human

   Use dates and the pet name, not IMG_4421. A Boston desk will not sort your camera roll.

6. Test the link offline

   Open the packet on airplane mode once. If it fails in your kitchen, it will fail in their lobby.
