I lost my owner access link. How do I get back in?
When you submitted your case, a confirmation email was sent containing your Owner Portal link. Search your inbox for an email from noreply@whiskeralert.com. If you cannot find it, email support@whiskeralert.com with your case ID (visible in the page URL) and we will resend the link.
How do I close or archive my case once my pet is found?
Open the Owner Portal using your access link, then use the “Mark as Found” button. This removes your case from the public listings and stops alert notifications. Your data is retained for 90 days before being permanently purged.
Someone sent me a sighting. How do I respond?
Sighting reports appear in your Owner Portal. Review the photos and location details there, then reply with the secure message button if you want to follow up.
Can I update my case details after submitting?
Yes. Open your Owner Portal and use the Edit case option. Changes update the public listing immediately. If you need to replace the photo, contact support.
My case expired. Can I reopen it?
Cases expire after 90 days to keep listings current. If your pet is still missing, submit a new report and include the original case ID. Email support if you need the earlier sighting history before it is removed.

The map isn’t showing a location pin.
A location pin appears only if GPS coordinates or a precise address was provided at submission time. If no pin is visible, the original report did not include location data.
I submitted a sighting. Where can I view it?
Visit My Sightings using the link in your sighting confirmation email. You can review the status of each sighting report you submitted.
