How can we help?

We know that new things are often hard to understand so we’ve compiled our most asked questions and their answers below.

General

Can we add other users to our Doobert organization?
Of course. The organization owner on Doobert can add other authorized users to your organization to help manage Cases, volunteers, foster programs, and other day-to-day activities.
Does Doobert share or sell my information?
Nope. We’re in it for you and for the animals. Doobert has powerful privacy functions built into the system so you can choose what information displays. Doobert will never sell your personal information so you can rest assured that Doobert is safe and reliable and focused on helping you help animals.

Cases

Can we have our webpage that automatically opens up new cases for us?
Yes! Doobert can automatically create a new Case when a client submits a form on your website. For example, you can have your owner surrender form automatically create a new Case in Doobert.

Doobert also includes advanced automated workflows that can send surveys (such as an owner surrender survey) and automatically add the responses to the corresponding Case, keeping all client information organized in one place.
Can we automate case follow ups?
Yes! Doobert is the only animal welfare platform that allows you to create custom follow-up workflows that run automatically.

You can send an email and, based on whether the client responds, have the system automatically send a follow-up email or text message after a specified amount of time.

These workflows are smart enough to stop automatically once the client responds, allowing you to create different automated workflows for each Case and giving you powerful, flexible automation at your fingertips.
Can we generate reports for cases?
Yes! Doobert allows you to export your Case data into easy-to-use formats, such as Excel, making it simple to track your progress and share meaningful insights with your board, your community, and your donors.

Chatbot

What is the Doobert Chatbot?
It is a free tool that helps animal welfare organizations engage with supporters 24/7 by answering questions and sharing information from your website.
Is the Doobert Chatbot free?
Yes, it’s completely free. Premium upgrades are available for extra features like multilingual communication, integrations (Adopt-a-Pet, Petco Love, etc.), and the option to “feed” it offline data such as PDFs.
What platforms is the chatbot compatible with?
It works on any website! You can use the WordPress plugin if your site is built on WordPress, or the universal chatbot script for other platforms like Wix, GoDaddy, Squarespace, and more.
What do I need to get started with the chatbot?
You’ll need an active Doobert organization account (create one here if you don’t have it yet). Then, add the chatbot to your website using the WordPress plugin or a universal script.
Is installation complicated?
Not at all! On WordPress, simply download and activate the plugin. For non-WordPress websites, just copy and paste the universal chatbot script into your website. No IT team is required—anyone familiar with your website setup can get it up and running in just a few minutes.
How do I upgrade to premium features?
You can upgrade directly in your Doobert dashboard. If you need assistance or questions about the premium plan, our support team is happy to assist.
What if I need help or have questions about the chatbot?
If you need assistance or have any questions, you can contact our support team at help@doobert.com.

RescueTube

Can we capture videos in Doobert?
Yes! Doobert is the ONLY system that has simplified the video capture process. Simply create a bucket number in RescueTUBE, type that number into the free Doobert mobile app, and you or your volunteers can start uploading videos from their phones right back to the system where you can easily download it.
How much storage can we use? How long can the videos be?
At Doobert we believe in supporting the animal rescue efforts of all organizations so using our forever free plan we give you 30 gigs of storage for your videos. Each video is limited to a total of 5 gigs (~10 minutes of video recording) but you can load as many videos as you want. Need more space? No problem. With our Doobert Elite and Pro plans the storage limit goes to over 100 gigs of space. That’s a lotta space for all types of videos.
Can we only load animal videos?
Of course not. Doobert RescueTUBE is the ONLY system that allows you to video everything. Whether you are a shelter veterinarian that wants to capture surgeries, or an ACO in the field trying to document a case, RescueTUBE allows you the flexibility to capture and store videos easily, just by typing in the bucket number and uploading from there.
Can I see who uploaded what files?
No, unless your volunteers add their name in the comments about the video.
What files can I upload to RescueTUBE buckets?
From mobile and tablet devices, you can upload images/videos from your gallery. From your Doobert organization RescueTUBE module, you can also upload PDF files.
