Our three-axis accelerometer records your all your dog’s movements, 24×7.
See how much time your dog has spent getting their all-important rest.
Discover how far they travel every day – we bet it’s further than you think!
Discover how many calories they’re burning so you can get their portions just right.
Track and maintain their weight over time so you know they’re in tip top shape.
Much like your mobile phone, the battery life on your device depends on how much it is being used, so it’s hard to give a precise figure.
With normal use, most people will have a battery life of weeks instead of days, thanks to our clever tech designed to reduce power consumption.
Almost certainly “yes” but in some cases “it depends”…
PitPat GPS calculates your dog’s location by listening to satellite signals that are detectable out-of-doors anywhere in the world (the G in GPS is Global). Provided your dog is not indoors or under very dense cover, their PitPat should be able to receive the satellite signals and work out your dog’s location from them. It’s just like navigating by the stars, but with satellites. So far, so good.
THEN, PitPat needs to transmit the location information back to us at PitPat HQ, so that we can send it via the internet to your phone and you can see your dog on the map in our app. To do that, your PitPat uses new mobile technologies called LTE-M and NB-IoT. These special networks are run by O2 and Vodafone, and your PitPat can use either of them automatically, depending on which signal is better at the time.
Both these networks have good coverage across the whole country, but just like your phone’s network, there can be small areas of poor signal where your PitPat may struggle to send information to us. Unfortunately, we can’t tell you in advance where those areas might be, because O2 and Vodafone are improving their networks all the time.
Don’t forget that if PitPat GPS doesn’t work for you, you can return it for a full refund anytime up to 21 days. We’ll even send you a pre-paid envelope so it won’t cost you a thing!
The PitPat Dog GPS Tracker weighs just 30g and measures 60mm x 34mm x 18mm in size.
No. The PitPat GPS Tracker is completely subscription-free, and there are no hidden fees either. Even with no subscription, you’re getting a proper, full range satellite based tracker, with unlimited range.
If you decide to, you can join our exclusive club PitPat LIFE, to access VIP rewards and unlock certain features in the app, but this is completely optional.
Completely! PitPat GPS is designed to IP67 specifications, which means that you do not need to take it off when your dog goes swimming – even diving into the sea or hydrotherapy.
PitPat GPS Tracker uses the UK mobile phone network (at no charge to you) rather than short-range wireless like Bluetooth. That means that as long as your dog is within a mobile coverage area anywhere in the mainland United Kingdom and your phone has a connection to the internet anywhere in the world (either 4G or WiFi), you can be as far away from your dog as you like (100s of miles even) and still track them live on a map.
With your permission, yes.
We know dogs often have more than one parent! The PitPat app lets you “share” your dog with other people in your family, letting them see and do on their phones exactly the same things that you can see and do on yours. So for example, if your dog gets lost, the whole family can track them on a map. Anyone you share your dog with can also see their activity, the badges they’ve won, and everything else about them.
On the other hand, we take your privacy very seriously. Unless you give explicit permission for your dog’s information to be shared with others, no-one else can ever see where they are or anything else about them.
