Is the PawsPet dog vaccination reminder app free?+
Yes. For owners PawsPet is free with no subscription: vaccines, reminders, therapies and calendar cost nothing, for dogs, cats and any other animal. You only pay for the services you book from a professional, such as a grooming session; if you pay in the app, a small service fee is added and shown in the summary before you confirm.
How do I get an alert before the vaccine expires?+
In the vaccine form tap «Set alert», tick one of the preset reminders (for example «1 month before») or create your own under «Custom», then «Confirm» and save. Push notifications must be enabled for the app: if you declined them, turn them back on in your phone settings. Tapping the notification opens the vaccine entry directly.
The vaccine has several doses or boosters: how do I record them?+
In the Vaccine form use «Add dose» for each booster: every dose has its own date, never earlier than the first. Set the «Expiry / validity date» and, if you like, «Set alert». For a booster of a vaccine already recorded you can also tap «Boost» under «Recommended» in the Profile tab: the form opens with the name already filled in.
How do I set a monthly reminder for the parasite treatment?+
«Health» tab » «Diet, therapies & treatments» » «Add» » choose «Therapy», enter name and quantity, switch on «Recurrent» and set frequency and time; with «Create to-dos in activities» every dose appears in the calendar with a box to tick. You can also ask Copilot in the chat: it prepares a confirmation card and saves only after your ok.
Does the app decide when vaccines are due?+
No. The vaccination schedule is set by your vet: you record the dates you agree on together and PawsPet reminds you based on those. «Recommended» only flags the core vaccines for the species that were never recorded or are about to expire, and no suggestion replaces medical advice.
