Description
With Pawscout’s free app, safety and community are always in paw’s reach. Help lost pets, connect with local pet owners, track walks, and browse thousands of pet points of interest.
A Free App to Help Lost Pets
Most lost pets don’t go far—that’s why it’s crucial to rally your community. Pawscout’s App makes it easy to enlist local pet lovers in the search, and our Bluetooth-enabled Tag (optional) alerts users when a lost pet is nearby. A detailed medical profile helps pet heroes care for your furry BFF until you can be reunited.
Connect with Pets Nearby
Build your local network of pet lovers with Pawscout’s social tools. Share photos, arrange walks and playdates, and alert neighbors to pet hazards or pet-friendly places. Invite friends and family to expand your “petwork.”
Track Walks and Set a Virtual Pet Leash
Pawscout, the Smarter Pet Tag (MSRP $19.99), works with our free App to keep tabs on your favorite furball. Track walks and monitor your pet’s activity levels. Or set an outdoor virtual pet leash while you’re outside, and receive alerts on your phone when your pet goes out of range.

Ratings and Reviews
Worked for one day
Either the battery failed after 24 hrs or something else but it won’t track my dog in my front room let alone in the woods..also couldn’t track his walk. It can tell you where your phone is..(maybe I should buy my dog an iPhone!)
Seriously this app has great potential but it’s being let down by the tags...I hope they rectify this as I brought this as my previous gps tracker needed constant charging and wouldn’t work without cell phone coverage so was hoping the Bluetooth was the answer...
Developer Response ,
Pawscout's pet-tracking features use a low-energy Bluetooth radio signal with a range of approximately 300 feet. This can be confusing, because the Pawscout App asks you to enable both GPS and Bluetooth. GPS does not affect the Tag at all, and is used only to improve Pawscout's ability to locate you. Basically, GPS communicates with your phone to find you, and your phone communicates with your Pawscout Tag (using Bluetooth!) to find your pet. Showing your pet's location on the map, therefore, will work when your pet is within 300 feet of you or someone else with the Pawscout App. Please reach out to support@pawscout.com if you'd like us to answer any more questions.
