Freestyle Libre 3 Home Monitoring Guide

Your pet has been fitted with a Freestyle Libre 3 glucose sensor to help us closely monitor blood sugar levels. This allows our medical team to safely manage insulin dosing based on real-time data.

  • Use ONLY one phone for the app
  • DO NOT adjust insulin unless instructed by our clinic
  • Log ALL insulin doses and meals
  • Accept the clinic connection email

STEP 1: Download the App

Download ONLY on one device. Do not install on multiple phones.

Android: Google Play Store → Search 'Freestyle Libre 3'

STEP 2: Account Setup & Clinic Linking

You will receive an email from Advanced Pet Care Clinic with instructions to create your account and link it to our hospital. Use the SAME email address when signing up and accept the connection request so we can monitor your pet’s glucose remotely.
