Once logged onto the Portal, from the "My Information" screen your client will be able to:

view and amend their pet information, as well as adding new pets.

Note about Custom Fields: Using Custom Fields enables you to customize the Client's pages in your Portal. This means you can add fields for data that you like to capture about a client such as specific pet behaviors or specific home management details. If you have added custom fields, the options available in some screenshots may not look exactly the same as yours.

Tip: If you wish to change the content and layout in this section, see Custom Fields for more information.
