User Reviews

Users praise the app for easy use and strong, customizable search filters that help find a good pet fit and enable adoptions. However, recurring issues include crashes, login sign-outs, and unreliable location-based results that show far-away pets or incorrect regions, along with occasional empty or irrelevant results. Performance can be slow. The missing in-app out-of-town filter and filtering gaps hinder accuracy. Overall, the tool is valuable when it works, but stability and filtering accuracy need improvement.

Pros

Easy to use and learn about the animals
Highly customizable search filters with saved criteria
Helpful for finding the right fit and enabling adoptions
Provides informative animal details and pictures to aid decision-making

Cons

Frequent crashes or the app won’t open
Location/distance filtering is unreliable, showing distant listings or incorrect regions
Slow performance, glitches, and random sign-outs/log-in problems
Some searches return 'no animals available' or irrelevant results
Out-of-town filter options are missing in the app (not available like on the website)

Everytime I find a dog - even after updating my location many times, it is over 500 miles away from me. It also logs me out every use.

We are looking for a dog to adopt. The concept of this app is great in fact we found our last dog on the site 13 years ago. However, there are so many glitches. We have spent time creating favorite list only to find that the dogs we removed back on the list, there's no way to filter your favorites, shows dogs from hundreds of miles away even though we selected 100 mi radius in search criteria and too many more glitches to list. I wish the developers would fix it because probably a lot of dogs aren't getting adopted because of the glitches. It does not seem like someone has put in the effort to really make this app work. These worthy dogs deserve better, please fix the app.
