How can I use Find My iPhone with different iCloud accounts?

My wife and I are on the same plan but have different I Cloud accounts. How do I set up both our phones to use find my phone in case one of us mislocates our phone?

You need to enable Location Sharing if you want to be able to find your devices from each other's device.

Outside of that, you don't need to do anything other than log in to https://icloud.com/find on any Device or computer to locate a lost device.
