Finding reliable pet care starts with trust. At Petme, we understand that your dog or cat is family—which is why our platform lets you see exactly who you’re trusting with their care. Browse verified pet sitters’ full social profiles, view their own pets and homes, and book services with complete transparency.

But Petme goes beyond connecting you with trusted sitters. Our platform also helps you organize your pet’s care network by adding family members and co-parents to your pet’s profile. Whether you share custody with an ex-partner, co-parent with roommates, or coordinate care with family members, this feature ensures everyone stays connected and informed about your pet’s wellbeing.

How to Add Pet Relatives on Petme

Step 1: Tap on the menu (top right corner)
Open the Petme app and tap the menu icon in the top right corner to access your settings.

Step 2: Select your pet’s profile
Choose which pet profile you want to update—whether it’s your dog, cat, or other furry family member.

Step 3: Tap “Edit profile”
Within your pet’s profile, select the “Edit profile” option to modify their information.

Step 4: Find “Pet relatives”
Scroll to the bottom of the profile settings where you’ll see “Pet relatives.” This feature lets you add family members who share responsibility for your pet’s care.

Step 5: Add a relative
Follow the prompts to send an invitation to your pet’s co-parent or family member (you must follow each other on Petme first). Choose a nickname for them, and once they accept, your pet will appear on their profile too, creating a connected care network.

Why Add Pet Relatives?

Shared care coordination: When multiple people care for your pet, everyone stays informed about vet appointments, medications, and daily routines.

Co-parenting made easy: Perfect for separated couples sharing pet custody or roommates splitting pet responsibilities.

Family connections: Grandparents, siblings, and extended family can stay connected to your pet’s care and milestones.

Easier sitter handoffs: When booking a pet sitter through Petme, having your pet’s full care network visible helps sitters understand your pet’s routine and family structure.

Finding Trusted Pet Sitters on Petme

Beyond organizing your pet’s family network, Petme connects you with verified, background-checked pet sitters in your area. View their social profiles, see their own pets, check out their home environment, and read reviews from other pet parents—all before booking.

Whether you need a dog walker, cat sitter, house sitter, or boarding services, Petme’s social-first approach means you’ll always know exactly who’s caring for your family member.
