Multi-pet app & shared family pet care
By the Indi Pet team · Updated: 2026-06-22
More than one pet, or more than one person caring for them, multiplies the things to remember — and the chances something gets missed or done twice. Indi Pet gives every pet its own profile and lets you share care with family, a partner or a sitter, so everyone stays in sync without anyone losing track.
How do I manage multiple pets in one app?
Each pet gets its own profile — breed, age, weight, photo — with a separate calendar, health history, documents and reminders. There's no limit on how many you add, so a two-cat, one-dog household stays organised and a reminder for one animal is never confused with another. You switch between pets in a tap and can filter the calendar or expenses by pet.
How does sharing pet care with family work?
Invite anyone by email — no extra accounts to create — and give them a role: Viewer (can see), Caretaker (handles tasks: marks feedings, adds walks, manages medications, but can't change the pet's profile) or Co-owner. Everyone gets their own per-pet notifications, so the person on duty is reminded. You can transfer ownership or remove access at any time, and nobody ever needs your password.
Why is shared care better than a group chat?
A chat tells you what someone said they'd do; shared care shows what's actually scheduled and done. Reminders reach whoever should act, a task marked done is visible to all, and expenses show who logged what. For families, flatmates, co-owners of a pet, or anyone using a sitter while away, it removes the "did you feed the dog?" loop. Set it up per pet — see the dog and cat guides.

Frequently asked questions
How many pets can I add?
There's no limit. Every pet has its own profile, calendar, health history and documents, so multi-pet households stay organised.
Do the people I invite need their own account or my password?
They sign in with their own email — you never share your password. You invite by email and choose what each person can do.
What can each role do?
Viewer can see the pet; Caretaker handles day-to-day tasks (feedings, walks, medications) but can't edit the profile; Co-owner has full access. You can change a role or remove access any time.
Will the sitter get the reminders while I'm away?
Yes. Notifications are per pet and per member, so whoever is caring for the pet gets the reminders that matter.
Can we both track expenses and tasks without stepping on each other?
Yes. Tasks marked done and expenses logged are visible to everyone with access, and you can see who did what.
Is Indi Pet free?
Yes, Indi Pet is free on iOS and Android, including multiple pets and shared care.
