Organization, Consolidation and Presentation of Financial Statements [Abstract]
Organization	*Organization* PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. (the “Company,” “we,” “our,” “PetLife”) was incorporated in the State of Nevada on April 5, 2002 as Aztek Ventures Inc. Effective November 13, 2007, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to Genesis Uranium Corp. Effective April 21, 2008, we amended our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to Vault Technology, Inc. to reflect the change in our business focus beyond solely that of uranium exploration. Effective July 10, 2009, we filed a Certificate of Amendment to our Articles of Incorporation to change our name to “Modern Renewable Technologies, Inc. (“Modern”). On May 27, 2011, Modern, merged with Eco Ventures Group, Inc., and the name of the Company was changed to Eco Ventures Group, Inc. On July 15, 2013, the Company entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with Clear TV Ventures, Inc. Under the terms of the merger, Clear TV became the surviving corporation. On June 26, 2014, Eco Ventures Group, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with its subsidiary, PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. being the surviving entity. As part of that merger, the name of the Company was changed to PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. and each 15 shares of our common stock were exchanged for one share in the surviving company. Effective August 12, 2014, we completed the closing of the Share Exchange Agreement and the acquisition of PetLife and changed our name to PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. On July 20, 2016, PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. entered into an Agreement and Plan of Merger with its wholly-owned subsidiary, PetLife Merger Subsidiary, Inc., a Nevada corporation, with PetLife Merger Subsidiary, Inc. being the surviving entity. As part of that merger, the name of the PetLife Merger Subsidiary was changed back to PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. The purpose of the subsidiary merger was to effectuate a 1 for 5 reverse exchange of PetLife’s common stock pursuant to the terms of the merger. The combined entities continue on public markets pursuant to Rule 12g-3 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. On April 19, 2017, the Company organized in the State of Maryland a wholly-owned subsidiary, Dr. Geoff’s by PetLife, Inc. (“Dr. Geoff’s by PetLife”), to operate the Company’s pet food division.
Nature of Operations	*Nature of Operations* PetLife is a registered U.S. Veterinary Pharmaceutical company whose mission is to bring its scientifically proven, potentiated bioactive medication and nutraceuticals, Vitalzul™, to the world of veterinary oncology. The Company specializes in the research, development, sales and support of advanced drugs and nutraceuticals for pet cancer and autoimmune related diseases such as arthritis. The Company will also introduce a line of natural pet food and other complementary products.
Basis of Presentation	*Basis of presentation* The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of PetLife Pharmaceuticals, Inc. have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and done under §240.13(a) of the Securities Act. The results of operations for the interim period ended February 28, 2018 shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for the full fiscal year ending August 31, 2018. In the opinion of the Company’s management, the information contained herein reflects all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the Company’s results of operations, financial position and cash flows. The unaudited interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended August 31, 2017, filed on December 14, 2017 and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Use of Estimates	*Use of Estimates* The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. Significant estimates in the accompanying financial statements include the amortization period for intangible assets, valuation and impairment valuation of intangible assets, allowance for accounts receivable, depreciable lives of the web site and fixed assets, and valuation of share-based payments.
Principles of Consolidation	*Principles of Consolidation* The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of PetLife and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Dr. Geoff’s by PetLife. All significant inter-company balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Cash and Cash Equivalents	*Cash and Cash Equivalents* The Company considers all highly liquid investments with an original maturity of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents.
Property, Equipment and Depreciation	*Property, Equipment and Depreciation* Property and equipment is recorded at cost. Depreciation is computed using the straight-line method based on the estimated useful lives of the related assets of three years for computer equipment, five years for office furniture and fixtures, and the lesser of the lease term or the useful life of the leased equipment. Leasehold improvements, if any, would be amortized over the lesser of the lease term or the useful life of the improvements. Expenditures for maintenance and repairs along with fixed assets below our capitalization threshold are expensed as incurred.
Accounting for Derivatives	*Accounting for Derivatives* The Company evaluates its convertible debt, options, warrants or other contracts to determine if those contracts or embedded components of those contracts qualify as derivatives to be separately accounted for. The result of this accounting treatment is that under certain circumstances the fair value of the derivative is marked-to-market each balance sheet date and recorded as a liability. In the event that the fair value is recorded as a liability, the change in fair value is recorded in the statement of operations as other income or expense. Upon conversion or exercise of a derivative instrument, the instrument is marked to fair value at the conversion date and then that fair value is reclassified to equity. Equity instruments that are initially classified as equity that become subject to reclassification under this accounting standard are reclassified to liability at the fair value of the instrument on the reclassification date.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments	*Fair Value of Financial Instruments* The Company measures its financial assets and liabilities in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. For certain of our financial instruments, including cash, accounts payable, accrued expenses, and short-term loans the carrying amounts approximate fair value due to their short maturities. We follow accounting guidance for financial and non-financial assets and liabilities. This standard defines fair value, provides guidance for measuring fair value and requires certain disclosures. This standard does not require any new fair value measurements, but rather applies to all other accounting pronouncements that require or permit fair value measurements. This guidance does not apply to measurements related to share-based payments. This guidance discusses valuation techniques, such as the market approach (comparable market prices), the income approach (present value of future income or cash flow), and the cost approach (cost to replace the service capacity of an asset or replacement cost). The guidance utilizes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs to valuation techniques used to measure fair value into three broad levels. The following is a brief description of those three levels: Level 1: Observable inputs such as quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable, either directly or indirectly. These include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are not active. Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data exists, therefore developed using estimates and assumptions developed by us, which reflect those that a market participant would use.
Revenue Recognition	*Revenue Recognition* The Company recognizes revenue for our services in accordance with ASC 605-10, “Revenue Recognition in Financial Statements.” Under these guidelines, revenue is recognized on transactions when all of the following exist: persuasive evidence of an arrangement did exist, delivery of service has occurred, the sales price to the buyer is fixed or determinable and collectability is reasonably assured. The Company has no revenue streams at this time.
Stock-Based Compensation	*Stock-Based Compensation* The Company accounts for stock-based instruments issued to employees in accordance with ASC Topic 718. ASC Topic 718 requires companies to recognize in the statement of operations the grant-date fair value of stock options and other equity-based compensation issued to employees. The Company accounts for non-employee share-based awards in accordance with ASC Topic 505-50. The value of the portion of an award that is ultimately expected to vest is recognized as an expense over the requisite service periods using the straight-line attribution method. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model. The Company estimates the fair value of each stock option at the grant date by using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model.
Income Taxes	*Income Taxes* The Company adopted the provisions of ASC 740-10, “Accounting for Uncertain Income Tax Positions.” When tax returns are filed, it is highly certain that some positions taken would be sustained upon examination by the taxing authorities, while others are subject to uncertainty about the merits of the position taken or the amount of the position that would be ultimately sustained. In accordance with the guidance of ASC 740-10, the benefit of a tax position is recognized in the financial statements in the period during which, based on all available evidence, management believes it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including the resolution of appeals or litigation processes, if any. Tax positions taken are not offset or aggregated with other positions. Tax positions that meet the more-likely-than-not recognition threshold are measured as the largest amount of tax benefit that is more than 50 percent likely of being realized upon settlement with the applicable taxing authority. The portion of the benefits associated with tax positions taken that exceeds the amount measured as described above should be reflected as a liability for unrecognized tax benefits in the accompanying balance sheets along with any associated interest and penalties that would be payable to the taxing authorities upon examination. The Company believes its tax positions are all highly certain of being upheld upon examination. As such, the Company has not recorded a liability for unrecognized tax benefits. As of February 28, 2018, tax years 2012 - 2017 remain open for IRS audit. The Company has received no notice of audit from the IRS for any of the open tax years. Company adopted ASC 740-10, “Definition of Settlement in FASB Interpretation No. 48” (“ASC 740-10”), which was issued on May 2, 2007. ASC 740-10 amends FIN 48 to provide guidance on how an entity should determine whether a tax position is effectively settled for the purpose of recognizing previously unrecognized tax benefits. The term “effectively settled” replaces the term “ultimately settled” when used to describe recognition, and the terms “settlement” or “settled” replace the terms “ultimate settlement” or “ultimately settled” when used to describe measurement of a tax position under ASC 740-10. ASC 740-10 clarifies that a tax position can be effectively settled upon the completion of an examination by a taxing authority without being legally extinguished. For tax positions considered effectively settled, an entity would recognize the full amount of tax benefit, even if the tax position is not considered more likely than not to be sustained based solely on the basis of its technical merits and the statute of limitations remains open. The adoption of ASC 740-10 did not have an impact on the accompanying financial statements.
Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share	*Net Earnings (Loss) Per Share* In accordance with ASC 260-10, “Earnings Per Share,” basic net earnings (loss) per common share is computed by dividing the net earnings (loss) for the period by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. Diluted earnings (loss) per share are computed using the weighted average number of common stock shares outstanding during the period.
Reclassifications	*Reclassifications* For comparability, certain prior period amounts have been reclassified, where appropriate, to conform to the financial statement presentation used in 2017. The reclassifications have no impact on net loss.
Effect of Recent Accounting Pronouncements	*Effect of Recent Accounting Pronouncements* The Company reviews new accounting standards and updates as issued. No new standards or updates had any material effect on these unaudited financial statements. The accounting pronouncements and updates issued subsequent to the date of these audited financial statements that were considered significant by management were evaluated for the potential effect on these audited financial statements. Management does not believe any of the subsequent pronouncements will have a material effect on these audited financial statements as presented and does not anticipate the need for any future restatement of these audited financial statements because of the retro-active application of any accounting pronouncements issued subsequent to February 28, 2018 through the date these audited financial statements were issued. In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued an ASU on lease accounting. The ASU requires the lease rights and obligations arising from lease contracts, including existing and new arrangements, to be recognized as assets and liabilities on the balance sheet. The ASU is effective for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018 with early adoption permitted. While the Company is still evaluating the ASU, the Company does not expect the adoption of the ASU to have a material effect on the Company’s financial condition due to the recognition of the lease rights and obligations as assets and liabilities. The Company does not expect the ASU to have a material effect on the Company’s results of operations, and the ASU will have no effect on cash flows.
