How the A5 pet care planner simplifies life with pets

Every pet gets a profile spread of its own, with a space for a photo, microchip and tag numbers, allergies, diet and personality, so key facts are ready whenever someone else is caring for them. Vaccinations, health checks, medicines and the monthly flea, tick, heartworm and deworming doses each have a dedicated log, and a vet visit spread keeps your questions, the advice you were given and any follow-up side by side.

A feeding plan, a weight log of 15 rows, a weekly care checklist and a grooming log make the daily routine easy to share with everyone at home. You can also keep tabs on monthly pet spending and leave a finished sitter spread out when you go away.

Who this pet planner is for

• Dog and cat owners who use an A5 6-ring binder, a Half Letter binder or a junior discbound planner
• Homes with several pets that want a profile and health spread for each animal
• New puppy, kitten or rescue families getting vaccines, meals and routines set up
• Pet owners who travel and want clear instructions waiting for a sitter or relative

Design and printing details

• Elegant and minimal: white pages with soft blush pink details that go easy on ink
• Roomy margins, so nothing is trimmed by a home printer
• Two portrait page sizes, A5 at 148 by 210 mm and Half Letter at 5.5 by 8.5 inches, plus print-and-cut sheets for A4 and US Letter
• No dates, so begin whenever you like and print any spread again for each pet
• Margins that alternate: the wider 14 mm binding edge sits on the left of odd pages and the right of even ones, with 8 mm at the outside
• Rows and writing lines spaced 6.5 mm or more and text no smaller than 8.5 pt, so a small page stays easy to use
• A dashed line down the middle and small cut ticks on the print-and-cut sheets, so a single cut gives you two pages
• Keep it in a binder or on a clipboard, or have a print shop spiral bind it

Good to know

• These PDFs are made to be printed. They are not a hyperlinked digital planner, though most note taking apps will let you import the file and write on it.
• This is a digital product, so nothing physical is shipped.
• Printed colors can look a little different from your screen.
• For use in your own home only. Please keep the files to yourself and do not resell them.
• Digital files cannot be returned. If something will not open or print properly, email us and we will help right away.
• Ring spacing varies from brand to brand, so the pages carry no punch marks. Punch the wide inner margin with your own A5 6-hole, junior or disc punch.
• The planner is only an organizing tool. It does not give veterinary advice or take the place of your vet, so always follow your vet's guidance on vaccines, medicines, feeding and care.
