# How can I add my pet to my profile?

There are **two** ways to add a pet on the Mad Paws website:


### **1. Add a Pet on your Account Overview.**

Adding a pet on your Dashboard is the best way to add a pet. It allows you to enter the most details about your furry friend, and even add photos. Instructions on how to add a pet can be found below:


1a. Log into the Mad Paws website, then visit **Account**, then **Overview**

1b. Click on the **Add Pet** button under the Your Pets section of your Profile

1c. Add your pet's essential details

1d. Click **Save Pet** at the bottom of the screen.


### **2. Add a Pet while Booking a Sitter.**

You can also add your pet when sending a booking request to a Pet Sitter. This speeds up the process, however this may mean you will have to clarify a few pet details with your Sitter. Instructions on how to add a pet during the booking process can be found below:


2a. Find your perfect Sitter on the website

2b. Click **Contact Sitter** on the right hand side of their profile page

2c. In Section 2 - **Select Your Pets** - you will be able to **Add a Pet**. Note you fill in fewer details here than if you add a pet in your Account overview.

2d. Complete the details then click **Add Pet.**


You have now added your basic pet details! You can update these details by heading to the **Your Pets** section on your **Account Overview**.
