One quick text asks if you’re okay. Reply and life goes on. Go quiet, and your Backup Humans (the people you chose) are alerted, so your pets are never left waiting on a door that doesn’t open.
No wearables. No app for anyone. Nothing your pet has to wear, and nothing your Backup Humans have to install.
Pick the people who’d show up for your pet: a neighbor, your sister, the friend with a spare key. They get a text, they say yes, done.
We check in at the times you choose: once a day, a few times a day, or only the days you want. Any reply counts: “OK,” a thumbs up, one word. Need help now? Reply HELP and your Backup Humans are alerted immediately.
Miss your window and we nudge you first: a gentle reminder, then a warning. Still quiet? All your Backup Humans are alerted together, with enough grace built in that a slow reply never causes a false alarm.
“If something happened to me on a Tuesday, nobody would know until the weekend.Except the dog. And she can’t tell anyone.”
