My dog sitter has no app: what now?
FreeShare your dog's profile with the vet or the dog sitter
Three ways, one for each situation: a read-only link for people without the app, which you switch off whenever you like; a collaborator with the permissions you choose; the professional who uses PawsPet Business, who invites you and records in the profile what they do.
- The app is free, with no subscription.
- You invite whoever you want, area by area.
- The AI prepares, you confirm.
A read-only link for people without the app
Turn on «Sharing active» and send the link or the code: whoever opens it sees the profile with no app or account, cannot edit it and sees no documents or collaborators.
- The code and the link appear when you turn sharing on: with «Copy» or «Share» you send them from any messaging or email app.
- Whoever opens them needs neither PawsPet nor an account, and cannot change anything.
- With «Disable sharing» the link stops working straight away.
What people with the link see
Only the pet's details and a health summary: documents and collaborators are never shown.
Whoever opens the link sees
- Photo and name
- Breed, sex and date of birth
- Weight, microchip, colour and position, if you entered them
- A health summary: therapies, allergies, vaccines and illnesses
They do not see
- Documents and passport
- Collaborators
- Edit buttons: everything is read-only
The professional invites you, you choose
If they use PawsPet Business they send you an invitation: you link your pet or create the profile, and you decide whether to open the health record to them, with a checkbox that starts off.
Link, create or skip
For each animal choose «Link» if the professional already has it on file, or else «Create new» or «Skip».
The health record stays closed until you tick it
The box that opens the health record to the professional starts unticked: you tick it, animal by animal.
Accept, or put it off with «Not now»
If you put it off, you can still accept later from the same link, as long as it is valid.
Recorded by professionals
Vaccines, treatments, visits or grooming sessions the professional records show up in the pet's «Profile», read-only, with a note of yours if you like.
«Recorded by professionals», in the animal's «Profile» tab, under the health box.
The professional records it
Once you have accepted the invitation, what the professional records about this animal appears in its «Profile»: a vaccine, for instance, with its date and expiry.
Every entry in its place
Visits, treatments and grooming too, grouped by professional: type, date and, when there is one, expiry.
You add a note
The professional's data cannot be edited or deleted: you add a note of your own, which they can see too.
«Recorded by professionals», in the animal's «Profile» tab, under the health box.
How to turn on the read-only link
Switch on the public read-only link
Open your pet in the «Pets» tab, tap ⋮ » «Sharing» and turn sharing on. A code and a link appear: with «Copy» or «Share» you send it from any messaging or email app. Whoever opens it does not need PawsPet. To close access, turn sharing off from the same screen.
Invite your vet or pet sitter as a collaborator
From your pet's profile tap ⋮ » «Collaborators» » «Add collaborator». Search the person by name or email (they must already have a PawsPet account), select them and set the permissions: they start with «View» on Health; add «Edit» only if you want them to record something. Then confirm.
Accept the professional's invitation, if they send one
If your groomer or vet uses PawsPet Business, they can send you an invitation link: open it and choose «Link», «Create new» or «Skip» for each pet; a checkbox, off by default, also opens the health record to them. Tap «Accept»: what they record then appears under «Recorded by professionals».
Questions about sharing your pet's profile
- Anyone with the link sees the profile read-only, so only send it to the people who need it. You switch it off whenever you like with «Disable sharing»; if you switch it back on, the same link works again: it is not regenerated.
- Photo, name, breed, sex, birth date, weight, microchip, colour and location, if you entered them, and a health summary. They see no documents or collaborators and cannot edit anything.
- Yes, if they have a PawsPet account: search for them by name or email and choose the permissions, for example «View» on Health without «Edit». Access stays until you remove it.
- Never from the link. If they use PawsPet Business, they record their data in their own record and you see it under «Recorded by professionals», read-only; they see your pet's health record only if you tick the box in the invitation.
- Yes for the link, for collaborators and for the professional's invitation: you turn them on. When you book a service on PawsPet, the professional sees the pet's profile for the duration of the service.
