Give every adopted pet the best start.
Wagabond is completely free for shelters and rescues. When a pet gets adopted, their new owner gets a lifetime of organized health records — starting at $30 added to their adoption fee.
You send them home with everything. Then the records disappear.
Your team works hard to send every adopted pet home with a complete packet — vaccination records, microchip info, spay/neuter documentation, care instructions. You’ve done everything right.
But within weeks, that folder gets lost, the vet records get misplaced, and the new owner is starting from scratch at their first vet appointment. Through no fault of yours — or theirs.
Records get lost
Paper packets disappear within weeks. New owners can’t find records when they need them most.
Vets start from scratch
The first vet appointment after adoption is spent rebuilding history that you already provided.
Outcomes suffer
Incomplete health history means missed vaccines, delayed treatment, and gaps in care that affect the pet’s long-term health.
Wagabond keeps every adopted pet’s records safe. Forever. At no cost to your shelter.
A simple digital home for every pet you place — so the records you worked hard to create never get lost again.
You partner with Wagabond — free
Sign up your shelter at no cost. We provide everything you need — co-branded QR cards, digital onboarding materials, and a dedicated partner page.
Wagabond is included in every adoption
A $30 Wagabond membership is added as an opt-out line item on your adoption fee. Adopters can remove it, but most won’t — it’s priced to feel like a gift, not an add-on.
New owner sets up their pet’s profile
The adopter downloads Wagabond, uploads all the records you sent home with them, and has a permanent organized home for their pet’s entire health history — in under 5 minutes.
Your shelter earns $2 per adoption
For every adopter who keeps their Wagabond membership, $2 goes back to your shelter. Automatically. No invoices, no admin. Just passive income for your organization.

Every adopted pet leaves with a tag.
Every Wagabond adoption package includes a custom engraved metal dog tag. The pet’s name. A QR code. A direct link to their health profile.
When someone finds a lost dog and scans the tag, they see exactly who to call, what medical needs the pet has, and where their records are stored. It’s the most useful thing that pet will ever wear.
For the new owner, it’s a memorable first gift. For the pet, it’s a safety net for life.
