Add a pet

2 min read · Updated Oct 29, 2026

Each pet gets a profile that holds their details, diagnoses, body map and history. Everything else in Recall, like routines and Cabinet products, is set up for one or more pets.

Add a pet

  1. Go to Pets › Manage and select Add a pet. If you haven't added any pets yet, you'll also find Add a pet on the Pets page.
  2. Enter their Name.
  3. Choose their Species: Dog, Cat or Other. For Other, type the species in Please specify.
  4. Add any other details you know: Birthdate, Breed, Sex, Adoption Date and Notes.
  5. To add a photo, select the Photo field, choose a photo, adjust the crop and select Crop & Use.
  6. Select Save Pet.

Why some details matter

  • Species decides which body map diagram they get, and lets you set up products for every pet of a species. Body map diagrams are available for dogs and cats.
  • Birthdate shows their age, sorts the Pets list by age, and lets you compare weight charts by age in Insights.
  • Card Color is optional. It's used to tell pets apart on cards and charts; leave it alone to have one chosen for you.

Add more to their profile

On the pet's General tab you can also fill in:

  • Additional info, from your household's custom pet fields, like a microchip number.
  • DNA breakdown: select Edit, add each breed with Add breed and its percent, then select Save. It's shown as a chart.

To change details later, open the pet's profile and select Edit, then Save Changes.
