Capturing full pet profiles
Breed, date of birth, sex, neutered status, microchip, insurance, vet contact, allergies, medications and behaviour — all on one pet record. · Updated 30/07/2026
Customers of pet grooming and veterinary businesses can build a full profile for each of their pets, so staff always have the details they need without asking every visit.
Adding a pet
- From your customer account, go to My pets › Add a pet.
- Choose a species (dog, cat or other), then search for a breed from a built-in list — or pick "Crossbreed / Mixed" or "Other" and type your own.
- Enter a date of birth; the app calculates and displays the pet's current age automatically.
- Set sex (male, female, or prefer not to say) and whether they're neutered/spayed.
Health and safety details
- Microchip number and insurance provider for quick reference in an emergency.
- Vet contact details — name, practice and phone number.
- Allergies and medications, so groomers and clinicians know before they start.
- Behaviour notes — anything staff should know in advance (nervous around dryers, needs a muzzle, great with kids, etc).
Where it's used
- Groomers see relevant fields (breed, size, coat, vaccination status) when quoting price and duration via the pricing matrix.
- Vets see the full clinical picture — allergies, medications and vaccination history — on the appointment.
- Staff can view and update a pet's profile from App › Customers at any time; customers can keep their own pets' details current from their account.
