Giving Pet Meds in a Shared Household: Who Gave the Last Dose?
To know who gave the pet's medication, log every dose the moment it is given, in one place the whole household can see. If nobody is sure, don't guess: check the packet or ask your vet.
How to Never Miss a Pet's Medication Dose
To avoid a missed pet medication dose, write down the schedule your vet set, tie each dose to a daily routine, and mark every dose done in one shared record.
How to set up pet medication reminders that actually fire on iPhone
For pet medication reminders that fire reliably on iPhone, allow notifications for the app, turn on Time Sensitive notifications and allow them in each Focus, keep the reminder schedule in the app rather than in your head, and mark each dose done from the notification so the log shows it was given.
