Your pet's face is their ID. A photo from any phone brings them home.
PawsitivID is a free app that gives every dog and cat a biometric pet ID. If your pet ever goes missing, anyone who finds them — a neighbor, a shelter, or an animal control officer — can match them back to you from a single photo. No collar, no tag, and no microchip scanner needed.
How the lost pet match works
- Register your pet with a few photos. The AI builds a biometric profile from their face, nose print, and coat pattern.
- If your pet goes missing, mark them as lost in the app.
- A finder reports the pet from the PawsitivID app, our website, or the portal that shelters and animal control use.
- Facial recognition matches the photo to your pet. You get an instant push notification and email with the exact location and photos from the sighting.
- Confirm the match, contact the finder, and mark your pet secure when they are home.
A pet ID that works from any phone
A microchip only helps when a shelter or vet scans it, and most people who find a lost pet do not carry a scanner. A biometric ID covers that gap. Your dog or cat stays identifiable to anyone with a phone, anywhere. PawsitivID works alongside your existing microchip — it does not replace it.
Everything in one app
- Digital city license — apply for and pay your pet license inside the app, get renewal reminders, and store the certificate in one place. Available in select cities.
- Vaccine and document storage — snap a vet record and AI extracts the dates. Keep every vaccine certificate, report, and registration document together.
- Avva, your AI pet assistant — ask about a cough, a diet change, or your pet's lab results. Avva answers using your pet's actual records.
- Care reminders — license renewals, vaccine boosters, and annual checkups, before they are overdue.
Works for cats, too
Indoor cats are one of the strongest cases for a biometric pet ID. They rarely wear collars, and the neighbor who finds them cannot scan a chip. Register a cat the same way you register a dog.
Free to download and use
Registering pets, storing records, and lost-pet matching have no paywall. You only pay your city's license fee, at whatever the city charges.
