About Pupkeeper

Last updated: 7 November 2026

Pupkeeper is a free, all-in-one dog and puppy care app by Peerware (Peerware Ltd, United Kingdom), for iPhone and Android. It keeps your dog's whole routine in one place: a puppy schedule, a potty training log, vaccine and flea reminders, feeding times, weight, walks and health records. And when your dog eats or touches something it shouldn't, its safety guide tells you in seconds whether it's dangerous, what to do now and which signs to watch for. The guide works offline.

The app brings together:

• Can my dog eat it? The safety guide, dose checks for chocolate, xylitol, onion, garlic, ibuprofen, naproxen and paracetamol (acetaminophen), photo and label checks, and Ask Pupkeeper for questions about your dog (AI answers from the guide, not a vet).
• Puppy schedule and potty training: a puppy plan by age, a potty training log that says when the next break is due, and weekly weigh-ins with growth charts.
• Health: a care plan by age and country, health records for vaccines, treatments, medicines and vet visits, and reminders when they're due.
• Food and walks: meal times with reminders, a daily calorie guide, a walk log and a walk check for hot pavement and heatstroke.
• Emergency help: pet poison lines for your country, emergency vets near you, step-by-step first aid, and Lost mode, a checklist for the first hours after a dog goes missing.
• Family, sitters and travel: family sharing, so everyone at home sees the same dogs, meals, walks and reminders; a lost-dog QR tag and poster; the Pupkeeper Pass, your dog's vaccinations for a vet, groomer or kennel; a sitter care sheet and pet travel checklists.

How the guide is written

Every entry is written from veterinary and poison-control sources: Pet Poison Helpline, the ASPCA Animal Poison Control Center, the Merck Veterinary Manual, VCA Animal Hospitals, the American Kennel Club (AKC), PDSA, the RSPCA, Cornell University's College of Veterinary Medicine, and government agencies such as the US FDA and CDC.

Every entry lists its sources, so you can read the original pages yourself. The guide was last reviewed on 9 October 2026.

How dose checks work

For chocolate, xylitol, onion, garlic, ibuprofen, naproxen and paracetamol (acetaminophen), Pupkeeper estimates how much your dog had for its body weight (in mg per kg, or g per kg for onion and garlic). It compares that with the thresholds published in veterinary references, mainly the Merck Veterinary Manual, and cites the source with every result.

A result below the lowest published threshold is never called "safe". Dogs vary, so Pupkeeper still suggests calling your vet if you're unsure or your dog seems unwell.

The limits

• Pupkeeper is not a vet. It gives general information, and it can't examine your dog or make a diagnosis.
• Dose checks are estimates based on published thresholds, and dogs vary.
• The AI photo and label checks, and Ask Pupkeeper's answers, can be wrong.
• We can't guarantee the guide is complete or current, which is why every entry lists its sources.

If your dog seems unwell, or you're not sure, call your vet or a pet poison line.
