PawCast: GPS Dog Walker

NEW: See your dog's walk traced on a live map. Plus a walk score tuned to your dog: a Husky and a Frenchie don't feel the same weather. Find the safest hour of the day.

Will it be safe to walk your dog this afternoon?

PawCast checks today's weather, pavement temperature, air quality, pollen, and UV hour by hour, tuned to your dog's breed, age, weight, and coat. You get one clear walk score from 0 to 100, so you know at a glance whether to head out, wait, or keep it short.

A Husky and a French Bulldog don't feel the same weather. PawCast knows the difference.

WHAT YOU GET

• Live walk score: one simple score from 0 to 100 that weighs heat, hot and cold pavement, air quality, rain, pollen, UV, and wind chill together. When the weather turns unsafe for your dog, the score drops so it never tells you it's safe when it isn't.

• Best Walk Window: PawCast scans every hour, finds the safest stretch, and skips your dog's sleep hours, so you never get a 2 AM suggestion.

• Per-dog tuning: breed, weight, age, coat, and sensitivities all shift the score. The same weather can be green for one dog and red for another.

• Multi-dog Pack: add every dog in your household and switch between them. Each gets its own score, alerts, and history.

• Schedule walks ahead: pick a day and time, and PawCast pins the walk to your home screen with a reminder 10 minutes before.

• Live walk tracker: start a walk and watch your route trace on a live map in real time, with distance, pace, elevation, and steps. It keeps tracking in the background and through a locked screen.

• In-walk safety: a paw-safety warning the instant pavement turns dangerously hot or cold, water-break reminders on longer walks, and a head-home nudge if a storm rolls in.

• Walk Journal: every walk saved with its score, route, weather, and your notes, plus weekly streaks and your dog's health and activity trends over time.

• Smart notifications: a daily forecast plus alerts for hot or cold pavement, pollen spikes, poor air quality, severe weather, and your best walk window.

• Dog profile editor: name, breed, photo, weight, age, coat, and sensitivities, all editable any time.

• Seasonal insights: see how the conditions you walk in compare to those your dog thrives in.

• Available in over 30 languages, with native terms for every breed and condition.

WHY DOG OWNERS TRUST PAWCAST

Most weather apps give a Husky and a Frenchie the same number. That's not how dogs work, and the real danger isn't the air temperature, it's the ground under their paws.

In summer, pavement can hit 50°C while the air reads a mild 28°C, and it burns a dog's paw pads in under a minute. In winter, frozen sidewalks, ice, and road salt crack and chemically burn those same pads. Your dog can't tell you until the damage is done.

It's not just the ground. Dogs get seasonal allergies too, and on high-pollen days a walk can leave them itching, sneezing, and licking raw paws. PawCast warns you before pollen and air quality spike, so you can time the walk or wipe them down after.

PawCast watches all of it, factors in your dog's coat and breed, and tells you plainly when it's safe and when to protect them. Thousands of owners walk with that confidence every day.

WHY TRACKING EVERY WALK MATTERS

A logged walk is more than a number. Over weeks, PawCast shows whether your dog is getting enough movement and how their activity changes with the seasons. It's the record your vet asks for, and the easiest way to catch a quiet change in their health early.

PRIVACY

Your routes, dog profiles, and history stay on your iPhone. PawCast needs no account, never syncs your data to its own servers, and never sells it. Only approximate location leaves your device, used to fetch local weather, air quality, and pollen.
