Transfer my pet to a new owner

To transfer your registered pet to a new owner electronically, please follow these instructions:

  • Login to your account (input your e-mail address and password)
  • Select the pet who is to be transferred to the new owner
  • Click on “ Transfer Ownership”
  • Input the new owner’s e-mail address and click “OK”

You will receive a confirmation email from PetLink once we receive an acceptance from the new owner and the transfer is complete. Please ensure the new owner’s spam filter allows emails from PetLink.
