In short

Gumb is a class scheduling app for dog schools and animal training. You set up puppy, young dog and advanced groups as recurring events, owners say yes or no by the sign-up deadline, and a weather cancellation reaches everyone by push notification and email. Every group plans in its own group scheduler. Gumb is not a booking system with payment and does not manage class fees. It organizes sessions and participants.

Frequently asked questions about the class scheduling app for dog schools

Which app helps a dog school with class scheduling?

Gumb helps dog schools plan group and private lessons as events. Owners say yes or no by the sign-up deadline, you see the group live, and a change reaches everyone by push notification and email. Gumb is not a booking system with payment.

How do I plan group and private lessons?

You set up group lessons as recurring events and private lessons as single events. Every group gets its own group scheduler and sees only its own sessions.

How do I notify all participants about weather cancellations?

You change or cancel the event, and Gumb asks whether to send notifications. The push notification and the email reach all participants of that event, even when the app is closed.

Can I run puppy groups and advanced groups separately?

Yes. Every group gets its own group scheduler. Admins see all groups, group leaders plan their own.

How do owners sign up for a lesson?

Owners say yes or no in the app or in the browser, up to the sign-up deadline on the event. Up to two reminders collect the replies, and you see at a glance who is still missing.

Can I limit the number of participants in a group?

You note the participant limit on the event, for example as a tag "max. 8", and everyone sees it. An automatic stop when a group is full is not available yet and is on the roadmap.

Does Gumb replace a booking system?

No. Gumb does not take class bookings with payment and does not manage class fees or class passes. Gumb organizes sessions, RSVPs and communication, and payments stay in your current solution.

How do I see who attended how often?

You open the statistics in the scheduler and export the attendance report as an Excel file. It contains date, start and end time and the reply for every person and event.

How do new owners join my group?

You send them an invitation link. They create an account and see the sessions of their group in the app and in the browser.

Does Gumb also suit riding stables, horse training or other animal training?

Yes. Every training that meets regularly is an event with RSVPs and attendance.

What does Gumb cost for a dog school?

You try Gumb free for 2 months. The Pro plan costs 149 Swiss francs a year for up to 100 members, with every feature. Members never pay.
