Apps
There are a nice variety of mobile apps designed specifically for pets. Many apps complement an existing pet product or service – e.g, Petcube’s app allows you to view your pet camera video from your phone, Rover’s app allows you to find a dog sitter from your phone, etc. The apps listed below, however, are tools designed primarily to be used on your smart phone and are not just an add on to another service.
