While enjoying yourself at a distant beach, your phone chirps for attention. Curious, you find a Pet Weather Warning on your phone:
“Heavy Rains: Keep your pets inside today”
Your neighborhood has been surprised by a fast-moving rainstorm. What to do? You’re hundreds of miles away, and you didn’t see it coming.
You immediately call your neighbor as you’re haunted by the site of your beloved four-legged friend sailing away down the flooded street.
After the call, your neighbor takes your pet to a safe and sheltered place until the storm passes.

You’ll receive alerts when the weather reaches uncomfortable levels for your pets. The app will also provide daily tips and pictures to help you become a better pet owner. Also, stay up-to-date with news articles covering pet tips to animal rescue stories.
