Pet vaccination and booster reminder
Boosters, worming and flea treatments run on their own schedule, and a lapsed vaccination record can mean a full restart course — or a refused kennel booking. Set the dates once and let the emails arrive.
Why this one gets missed
- Annual boosters lapse quietly, and some vaccines require restarting the whole course if missed.
- Kennels, catteries and groomers usually require an up-to-date vaccination record.
- Flea and worming treatments repeat monthly or quarterly, which is far easier to forget.
- Households with several pets have several overlapping schedules.

Questions, answered
How often do dogs and cats need boosters?
Most core vaccinations are boosted annually, though some components run on a three-year cycle. Your vet's record card is the authority — set your reminder to the date they give you.
Can I track several pets?
Yes. Create a 'Pets' category and add one reminder per pet and per treatment type so each schedule stays separate.
Can my partner get the same reminder?
Add them as a verified recipient and they receive the same email at the same time.
