PawsLikeMe helps people and pets find each other and live happier lives together. That’s our mission. It’s why we exist.

Our work in rescue taught us of the need to keep animals out of shelters. The euthanasia statistics are staggering, and the lives lost will never be regained. Though the numbers are improving, too many animals are euthanized each year, and PawsLikeMe wants to help make that number even smaller by giving current guardians,shelters, and rescues an alternative path to finding a new home for a pet.Monitor with Profile

How can we do this online? PawsLikeMe has developed algorithms that identify the best match for people and pets. Just like people, each and every pet is a unique individual, and our algorithms help bring pets and people together. Don’t believe us? Try it for yourself!
