Features

Useful before, during and after the walk.

No attention traps, no ads. PetSignal earns the next open by being genuinely useful when your dog needs you.

Paw check

Live weather becomes a clear paw-burn safety call, calibrated against published veterinary data, plus the next safer walk window.

Real off-leash maps

1,637 council-sourced off-leash areas across 36 councils, with fencing status and usage rules wherever the council publishes them — not empty map pins.

Lost-pet signal chain

Sightings, photos, direction and time link straight back to the original alert, so nearby owners can act together fast.

Walk history + share cards

Every walk recorded on your device. Spot healthy routines, and share a polished walk card when you choose to.

On-device AI behaviour guide

Ask about barking, reactivity or recall and get a private answer, powered by Apple's on-device intelligence — nothing leaves your phone.

Community hazards

Snakes, ticks, glass, toxic plants and mess hotspots reported by nearby owners, so you know what's ahead before your dog does.

The app itself

Straight from the build.

Real screenshots, not mockups — this is what you get when you install it.

A walk in progress: the live map with the route walked so far, nearby off-leash area and dog-friendly café, and the duration and distance.
During the walk: your track, what's nearby, and a target that suits your dog.
The map zoomed out over Melbourne, off-leash areas grouped into counted clusters.
Every council off-leash area, clustered so a whole city stays readable.
The pre-walk planner suggesting loops the owner already walks, with advice on which are fresh again for the dog.
Before you go: routes you already walk, and which ones your dog will still find interesting.

Safety stays free.

Paw checks, off-leash maps, hazard warnings and lost & found will never sit behind a paywall. That's the whole point of the app.

PetSignal provides guidance, not veterinary advice. Always use your own judgement and follow on-site council signage. In an emergency, contact a vet or the Animal Poisons Helpline.

FAQ

Straight answers.

Is PetSignal free?

Yes. Paw checks, off-leash maps, hazard warnings and lost & found are free and always will be. The optional Pack subscription adds multi-dog profiles, a 7-day safety outlook and full walk history.

How accurate is the paw check?

It's a model calibrated against published veterinary data — at 25°C air temperature, full-sun asphalt can reach roughly 52°C, hot enough to burn a paw in about a minute. Treat it as strong guidance, and always confirm with the back-of-hand test before you walk.

Do you track me?

No. Location is only used while the app is open, to check conditions where you are and find nearby off-leash areas. There's no background tracking, no advertising SDKs, and we never sell or share your data.

When's Android coming?

iOS first — no date yet for Android. We're building for iPhone owners now and will share news when there's something real to say.
