United Pet Club's pet recovery lookup is free and open to anyone, anywhere in the world, no account needed. You can also register your own pet in a couple of minutes, so a future scan leads straight back to you instead of a dead end.
Every pet microchip carries a unique number, usually 15 digits, read by a vet or shelter with a handheld scanner. By itself, that number says nothing about the owner; it has to be matched against a registry. That's what a lookup does: enter the number, and the registry holding the record answers with a way to reach the owner.
The United Pet Club registry accepts chips from any manufacturer and takes part in the AAHA universal pet microchip lookup, a cross-registry tool clinics and shelters check first when a stray comes in. If a number isn't in our registry, the universal lookup shows which registry does hold it, so the trail doesn't go cold.
Reading this as an owner rather than a finder? A lookup only helps if your own pet's chip is registered and current. Register your pet's microchip at no cost, or see what the free lifetime plan includes first.
A collar tag showing a phone number is still the quickest route home. If there's a QR or printed code, scan it with your phone camera; it opens the pet's registry profile.
Any vet clinic can check for a microchip, and many will do it free for a found pet. Scanning takes only a few seconds and brings up the chip number.
Enter the chip number in United Pet Club's pet recovery lookup, or in the AAHA universal lookup to check every participating registry at once.
When the number matches a registered pet, the registry puts you in touch with the owner. If not, your barangay animal control office or a local rescue group can take it from there.
Every brand of ISO microchip works here, not only the chips we sell ourselves.
The code printed on a United Pet Club QR tag can be typed in by hand if scanning isn't an option.
The lookup also accepts tattoo and pet passport numbers, so older forms of identification still lead home.
The lookup costs nothing and never closes, whatever time you find a stray.
Have the pet scanned at any vet clinic to get the chip number, then enter it in United Pet Club's free pet recovery lookup. You can also try the AAHA universal microchip lookup, which searches participating registries, including ours, all at once.
Yes. Searching the United Pet Club registry costs nothing, and no account is required to look up a found pet.
No. A lookup doesn't hand out personal details. It connects you with the registry, which reaches the owner through the contact information on file, so the owner controls what gets shared.
It happens more often than you'd think: the chip went in but was never registered. A vet can sometimes trace the manufacturer from the number's prefix and follow up with the clinic that bought it. It's also the strongest reason to register your own pet's chip today.
A free tool from the American Animal Hospital Association that checks many registries at once and reports which one holds a record for a chip number. United Pet Club takes part in it, which is one reason vets and shelters find our records quickly.
The finder's side of this page only works if the owner's side is done first. Register your pet's microchip at no cost, then keep your contact details up to date.
