The only system combining AI Matching, sector-based Search Missions and a 24h Vet Database in one tool.
Emergency at night? Find the nearest open 24h clinic, shelter or pet store. Navigate with one tap.
Helping is addictive! Earn points for activity, climb ranks (from Novice to Patron) and unlock 22 unique badges.
Not sure of the breed? Take a photo. Our AI recognizes the breed and analyzes colors (HSB), filling in the report automatically.
No more spamming the whole city. Our algorithm calculates distance and sends Push notifications only to users within real reach of the report.
PetSOS automatically generates a print-ready PDF poster with a QR code, photo and details. Print and post it right away.
Traveling and don't want notifications from a foreign city? Mute standard alerts with one button. You control your range.
Your eyes can deceive you under stress. Our algorithm compares unique biometric features in photos (coat pattern, muzzle shape) in a fraction of a second.
See the photo of the lost pet and the found animal next to each other. AI highlights shared features.
The system explains it in plain language: "The unique merle coat pattern on the ear is identical".
Organize professional operations. The app divides the terrain into smart Sectors (Grid System) so the group never searches the same spot twice.
See on the map which sectors are already "clear" (green) and which still need checking.
Join a mission with one tap. All participants see the group's progress in real time.
When someone finds your pet, every second counts. Our built-in messenger lets you exchange information safely without sharing your phone number.
The finder can share a GPS pin or a photo of the location with one tap.
Your data is protected. Chat runs inside PetSOS's secure cloud — we never share your phone number.
VIP reports break through neighbors' "Do Not Disturb" mode within zero radius (Critical Alerts). As a Patron you support the app's development and receive unique profile badges.
PetSOS is an app that supports searches for lost pets — it combines geolocation, artificial intelligence (Smart Vision AI) that recognizes animals from photos, and sector-based Search Missions that the whole community can join.
Smart Vision AI analyzes a photo of the animal and tries to recognize its coat pattern, breed, size and other distinctive features, then automatically suggests them in the report's description — so filling out a report takes just a moment.
Yes, PetSOS is completely free in its basic version — aside from an optional "coffee" donation and a small ad banner at the bottom of the app. Paid options are also available: a Premium Report (a one-time boost for a specific lost-pet report — it unlocks the AI Matcher, lets you add up to 4 photos instead of 1, and cuts through other users' muted notifications) and a Premium Account (a 3, 6 or 12-month subscription that includes all Premium Report benefits, plus removes ads and lets you add more photos and comment on POI points — regular users can only rate them with stars). You don't need to create an account to use the app — you just need to enter your email address the first time you launch it, which is used to send you a login link; this keeps the app secure and enables Premium account handling.
You create a report by adding a point on the map with information about the lost animal. If that report was purchased as Premium, the app immediately runs the AI Matcher, comparing photos of found animals against lost-pet reports. You can also manually use the "Find owner" option to check whether a similar animal has already been reported lost, and contact the owner directly through the built-in chat, which also supports sending photos.
PetSOS doesn't come with its own ready-made database of vets — places such as clinics, shelters or pet stores are added by users themselves through the "Add POI" option on the app's main map. Once added, a place is visible to everyone, and anyone can contact it directly from the map.
