Designed to keep pets where they belong:
HomeSafe®

HomeSafe® is the built-in, always-active lost pet recovery service included at no cost with every DocuPet registration. It’s the ultimate peace of mind for pet owners—and a powerful public safety tool for municipalities and shelters.

Powerful reunification tools - when it matters most

For pet owners, community members and local agencies, our reunification solution provides effective resources with 24/7 live support, lost pet alerts, and community based reunification.

Each pet registered with DocuPet has free access to HomeSafe®, our always-on lost pet service designed to maximize successful reunions. When a pet is found, whether by a community member, shelter, or animal control officer, all the critical information needed is instantly accessible using their tag ID. Pets can be safely cared for while lost and quickly reunited.

ID Tags That Work

At the core of HomeSafe® are DocuPet’s tags, which include a unique identifying code that links to each pet’s comprehensive online profile. These profiles contain important information, such as contact details, pet care instructions, and medical needs—all in one place. 

Available in two sizes, every pet can get a HomeSafe® tag for free. Each tag is etched with our 24/7 HomeSafe® hotline number. Upgrade options include personalized etching with pet and contact information, and pet owners can choose from hundreds of colorful designer tags. Pet owners can even design their own tag style.

Pets Reunited

"While we were visiting family out-of-state over the holidays, our golden retriever Myah got lost in a new neighborhood. As we were frantically looking everywhere for her, my phone rang and I received an email that she had been found and was warm and safe inside a neighbor's garage. We had her back home within minutes."

Pets reunited

"I went out to my garage workshop to do some work when Zoey bolted out the door and down the street. After searching on foot and then by car for awhile I received a call from DocuPet that Zoey had been found. I was given the name and phone number of the finder. I called, got the address, and went to get Zoey. Thank you DocuPet."

Pets reunited

"He managed to escape from our backyard this morning and I was frantically searching for him when I got the call from DocuPet saying that someone had found him, brought him into their home and called the number on his DocuPet tag. I am so glad that he is licensed and the person who found him also knew about this service. Thank you DocuPet!"
