Will my family actually use it?
FreeFamily pet care app: one shared profile for everyone
One profile for each pet, shared with the people who live with it: everyone with their own account and with the permissions you choose, area by area. With «Edit» on activities, whoever walks the dog or gives the pill marks it as done, and the others find it ticked off.
- The app is free, with no subscription.
- You invite whoever you want, area by area.
- The AI prepares, you confirm.
One profile, no duplicates
Health, activities and documents sit in a single profile: the people you invite find it under «Shared with me», with their own account, and have nothing to copy over.
- The people you invite find the pet under «Pets», in «Shared with me».
- They only see the tabs and buttons their permissions open.
- There is still one owner: you.
Permissions by area, documents included
For General, Collaborators, Health, Activities and Documents you choose «View» or «Edit». A new collaborator starts with read-only access to health: you open the rest.
Whoever is home today ticks off the to-dos
With «Edit» on activities, whoever walks the dog or gives the pill (if it is a repeated activity) marks it as done, offline too. For diets and treatments you need «Edit» on Health. Whoever opens the profile afterwards finds it ticked off.
- The circle is there on repeated activities and on recurring diets and treatments; for diets and treatments you need «Edit» on Health.
- A one-off activity, a vaccine or an order cannot be ticked off.
- Offline, the tick waits in the queue and goes out as soon as you are back online.
Access you change when life changes
Remove a collaborator or change their permissions whenever you like; they can also stop collaborating. Access does not expire on its own: it stays until you remove it.
- Remove a person with the red icon on their row and confirm: it takes effect immediately.
- A collaborator can also leave with «Stop collaborating»: to come back they need a new invitation.
- You change permissions whenever you like, from the toggle on their row.
How to invite a collaborator
Open your pet's profile and go to «Collaborators»
«Pets» tab, tap your pet, then the ⋮ icon at the top right and «Collaborators». At the top is your own row, labelled «Owner»; below it, the people already invited, each with their name or email, the labels of their permissions, a toggle and a remove icon.
Invite the people who live with your pet, by name or email
Tap «Add collaborator» at the bottom right and search for the person by name or email: the search starts from the fourth character and only finds people who already have a PawsPet account. If your partner does not have the app yet, have them install it and sign up first: it is free and quick.
Choose what they can see and what they can edit
In the permission grid you switch on «View» or «Edit» for General, Collaborators, Health, Activities and Documents; «Edit» also switches on «View». For a co-owner, tick «Full access». Confirm with «Add collaborator» and the pet appears in their app under «Shared with me».
Questions about caring for a pet as a family
- In the app there is always one owner. You give the other person «Full access»: they see and edit everything, documents included, invite other collaborators and manage their permissions. Deleting the dog stays with the owner only.
- Yes, with «Edit» on Activities. In the «Activities» tab they tap the empty circle next to today's row, or open it and tap «Complete»: the circle turns green. It works for repeated activities; for recurring diets and treatments they also need «Edit» on Health. Not for a one-off activity, a vaccine or an order. It also works offline.
- Only if you allow it: by default a new collaborator starts with «View» on Health only. In the permissions you can also open «Documents», read-only or with editing.
- Open the pet, ⋮ icon, «Collaborators»: tap the remove icon on their row and confirm. It takes effect immediately: if that person tries to open the profile, they read «The owner has stopped sharing this animal». No access expires on its own: you remove it when you need to.
- As a collaborator they need a PawsPet account: send them the invitation from «Profile» » «Invite friends» and, once they have signed up, add them from «Collaborators». Meanwhile there is the read-only link to the profile, which you switch off whenever you like.
