Registering Your Pet's Microchip
Last updated: October 21, 2026
Most pets are registered automatically when they are adopted, so registering your pet's microchip is usually just a matter of double-checking it. Most pets are registered automatically at adoption, but you can confirm or manage your registration anytime by signing in to your Adopterluv account. Registration is free for life; see registration cost and coverage for what is included.
Registering Your Pet
In most cases, your pet's microchip was automatically registered at the time of adoption through your shelter or rescue. You can check your registration by signing in to your Adopterluv account and navigating to the Microchips section in the main menu.
If you don't see a microchip number listed, this may be because the registration is associated with a different email address, or the registration was not fully transferred at the time of adoption. We recommend reaching out to the organization you adopted from, as they are the only ones who can correct or update the original adoption records.
If you see a microchip number in the "Microchips" tab, your pet is registered with Adopterluv. You can view and update your contact information directly on that tab by following these steps:
1. Log in to your Adopterluv account at https://adopterluv.com/login
2. Navigate to the Microchips tab on your pet's profile
3. Select Edit Contact Information at the bottom of the page to update your phone number, address, and emergency contact details
If the microchip number appears only in the "My Pets" tab and not in the "Microchips" tab, it likely means the microchip is registered with a different registry.
To find out where your pet's microchip is registered, you can search the number using the AAHA Microchip Registry Lookup Tool. This tool provides a list of registries associated with your pet's microchip.
