Switch on Two Factor Authentication

Note: This option may not be visible on your preferences settings as a Company default setting may have already been enabled.

Using Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) when accessing web-based software or applications adds an essential layer of security that helps protect your account from unauthorised access.

Enabling Two-Factor Authentication means even if someone manages to obtain your password, they cannot log in without the second verification step. This greatly reduces the risk of data breaches and keeps all your sensitive information safe.

Its quick and easy to access your account when Two-Factor Authentication is enabled. Login as normal and Pet Sitter Plus will automatically email a 6‑digit verification code which you simply copy and enter in the box provided when prompted.

Navigation: Profile > Preferences

Switch ON "Use 2-Factor Authentication"
