Free vs Premium: What You Get at Every Tier
PetCure's Free plan is built to be genuinely useful on its own. Premium raises every limit and unlocks family sharing for households managing more pets, more medications, or more caregivers.
PetCure's Free plan supports 2 pets with up to 5 active medications each, 30 health logs per pet per month, 10 documents, and 3 PDF reports per month. Premium (from $2.99/month) raises pets to 10, removes the medication, health-log, and report limits entirely, and adds up to 10 household members per pet.
What it does
PetCure's pricing is built around one idea: the Free plan should be genuinely usable for a single pet and a single caregiver, not a crippled trial. Premium exists for the moment a household needs more — more pets, more caregivers, or heavier day-to-day logging.
On Android, Premium is billed through Google Play as an in-app purchase. The App Store version is coming soon, and iOS billing will go through the App Store the same way. PetCure does not use Stripe or store card details — renewals and refunds follow the store's policies, and purchases can be restored on a new device.
There's no feature that's Premium-only in the sense of being hidden — every core feature (medication management, health tracking, senior care tracking, documents, reports, the emergency card) works on Free. Premium is about raising how much of each you can use, plus unlocking family sharing, which is a Premium-only capability.
