About this app

It may be painful losing your pet, but now you can have peace of mind, knowing that technology is finally helping pets to be easily located. Founded in 2020, Pet Hero is the definition of a pet radar, providing to all animals of all kinds including cats, dogs, birds, horses, and much more!

Sure, there are other platforms, designed to help find missing pets, but there is nothing like this. Rather than building on traditional pet-locating methods, Pet Hero is designed to work as a single platform to get pets back home in real- time using a network of smartphones. Simply put, neighbors helping neighbors where everyone's active participation goes a long way!

I’VE LOST MY PET - WHAT SHOULD I DO?

It’s every loving pet parent’s worst nightmare. It can happen when you least expect it—your pet has gotten loose and you can’t find them! Don’t panic. The first 24-48 hours are the most critical, alert your community before your pet roams farther away from home. Receive real-time result keeping you connected with your pet at all times by using radar-style tracking to hone in on their location. Plus, you can feel confident knowing that you won’t be alone while trying to find your best friend.

CONTROL THE SEARCH RADIUS OF YOUR MAP IN KMS OR MILES

Approximately 80% of lost pets are found within 1 mile of where they went missing (even if this location is hundreds of miles from their home). But note that 20% of lost pets travel further – sometimes much further – so you are able to increase your search radius within Pet Hero.

I’VE FOUND A PET - WHAT CAN I DO?

You're driving your car. When you see a dog on the side of the road, with a sinking feeling you realize they are alone. What should you do? This is a wrenching scenario for all who care about animals. After all, what if your own pet was standing there? Too often the average person walks by without knowing what to do. The most important thing to remember if you find a lost pet is that now there is something you can do, and it only takes seconds. Take that photo and save a life! It is more likely that they have an owner searching desperately for them.

REGISTER MULTIPLE PETS AT ONCE

Register your pet before it’s lost. Sometimes our pets wander into unfamiliar surroundings and become lost. By registering your pet with Pet Hero, not only do you support responsible pet ownership, it also means that in the unfortunate event that your pet does go missing, a simple click from your phone can speed up the process even more!
