How a veterinary clinic uses it

Weekly timesheet of veterinary clinic staff

Desk and kennel hours for the week

One tablet for the front desk and the kennel

The front desk and the kennel often keep their hours in two separate notebooks.

Both teams clock in on the same tablet. Each employee uses their own PIN.

Manage Requests list for a veterinary clinic

Time-off requests waiting for approval

Approve time off before the weekend is short-staffed

A tech takes Saturday off, but the appointment board is already full.

Staff request time off in the app. You see the request and how many days they have left, then approve it.

Employee list for a veterinary clinic

Clinic staff on one list

Hours for techs and the front desk

Staff hours get mixed in with the vets’ time.

Only the people whose hours you track need to clock in, such as techs, kennel staff, and the front desk.

Employee schedules for a veterinary clinic

Weekday and weekend schedules

Weekend staff

The people who work Saturdays are often a different group from the weekday team.

Put weekend staff on the schedule and have them clock in when they arrive.

Work locations list for a veterinary group with two hospitals

Each hospital saved as a work location

More than one hospital

With two buildings, everyone’s hours end up on one sheet.

Each hospital can be its own work location, so you can see where each person clocked in.

Approved hours, ready for payroll

TimeOff Manager tracks hours. It doesn’t pay anyone. At the end of the pay period, a manager reviews and approves the hours. Then you download them as an Excel or CSV file and send it to whoever runs payroll: your bookkeeper, your accountant, or your payroll software.

  • Hours are approved first

    A manager checks the hours before they go anywhere, so payroll gets real numbers, not guesses from a group text.

  • Overtime is flagged

    Extra hours show up on the timesheet, so you can see overtime before you pay it.

  • Excel or CSV

    One download your bookkeeper or payroll software can open.

  • Payroll happens elsewhere

    TimeOff Manager does not calculate pay, print checks, or file taxes.

This is not practice management or boarding software

Approved time off can sync to Google Calendar and Microsoft Outlook. Approved hours can go to QuickBooks Online or FreshBooks.
