for Pet Lovers
Making the process of finding your pawfect friend through adoption / rescue agencies quicker by compiling all information in one application.
Availability of pets within organizations is dependent on the city and agency. It can become a very lengthy process to sift through multiple websites to view all options. On top of the extensive search, altogether with the requirements to adopt/rescue animals, it can be a very taxing operation. Why make the process longer than it should? This application makes the initial steps easier and hopefully speeds up the search in order to match the perfect pet to the perfect owner.
You have the ability to refine your search by submitting your preferences and it will populate all available information according to your settings. Additionally, users have the ability to manually search for pets as well.
