PetBuddy helps you keep the everyday details of pet care in one place, with optional backup and restore for Pro members. Start with one pet on the free plan, then add more pets with PetBuddy Pro. Record health information, plan routines, set reminders, save documents, and keep a journal of the moments you want to remember. Stay on top of feeding, walks, grooming, medication, appointments, and other care tasks with simple logs and reminders. Add vaccinations, medications, weight, growth entries, visits, notes, and supporting documents so useful information is easier to find when you need it. Free limits apply to some features, including one pet, one active reminder, selected record and document limits, and a limited number of journal entries. See the app for the current limits. Before an appointment, review the Vet Visit Pack preview built from your pet’s saved identity, notes, health information, medications, vaccinations, concerns, visits, and documents. The pack turns those details into a clear document you can review. Preview is available to everyone; sharing and printing require PetBuddy Pro. The pack organises information you provide and does not diagnose conditions or replace veterinary advice. Make a story from your pet’s week. Choose a local calendar week, select from six styles—scrapbook, photo journal, numbers, polaroid, minimal, and grid—review the result, and share it as an image. This feature uses local pet, journal, care, and photo data and does not require an account or network service. BACK UP AND RESTORE Back up your pet data to iCloud and restore it when needed with PetBuddy Pro. Cloud backup is optional. PetBuddy Pro also adds multiple pets, expanded limits, an ad-free experience, and premium tools such as PDF sharing and printing, calendar export, wellness trends, advanced badges, and the Health Assistant. Subscriptions are available monthly or yearly and renew automatically unless cancelled in your Apple Account settings at least 24 hours before the current period ends. A lifetime one-time purchase may also be offered where shown in the app. Prices, taxes, plans, trial eligibility, and availability are displayed in the purchase screen before payment.

Verdict

The call

The clearest difference is ads: Think Safe at none against PetBuddy's shown. Think Safe also leads on iOS requirement (12.1 vs 16.0). PetBuddy's advantage is update cadence (every 2 months vs every 28 months). On price, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
