My Companion and SOS PETS

Deworming, renewal of antiparasitic treatment, vaccination reminder the life of our pet dogs is filled with small appointments that an owner can easily forget.

To avoid missing anything, the Mon Compagnon and SOS Pets applications have created an online he alth record to keep your pets' information permanently on you. If the first application is primarily intended for policyholders of the insurer Solly Azar to send reimbursement requests to the insurance company, it remains accessible and useful to everyone.

These two applications allow you to:

  • to create alerts on upcoming events such as vaccine reminders, appointments with the veterinarian or even on the administration of a dewormer or the renewal of an antiparasitic treatment and to synchronize them with its calendar in the case of My Companion,
  • fill in your pet's medical record by recording the treatments prescribed to it or the date of the medical or surgical procedures it has undergone,
  • to share your dog's he alth record with the person who will have custody of it during your vacation,
  • to geolocate the nearest veterinarian and show you the route by communicating with the GPS application installed on your phone,
  • record and track your pet's weight,
  • access practical information that may be useful in the event of a veterinary emergency (number of the National Center for Veterinary Toxicological Information, first aid measures, etc.)

Small bonus for SOS Pets: it also provides you with a list of professionals (excluding vets) who have signed a charter for the well-being and respect of animals: animal taxis, pensions, educators, groomers or even walkers

The Premium subscription includes damage insurance for the borrower which covers material, immaterial and bodily damage caused by a dog at a borrower. However, this insurance is reserved for Premium members and comes with a deductible of €250. Before you start, check with your insurer to see if your civil liability does not offer better guarantees.

Trustedhousitters

Trusted Housesitters.com is an application that connects pet owners looking for a home sitting solution and people willing to take care of them on site around the world.

Registration for the application is free but an annual subscription is required to get in touch with the owners or the traveling pet-sitters!

The application being international, the ads are written in English! It is therefore necessary to master at least the language of Shakespeare to use it!

100% free, it allows you to discover new walking routes and to report and consult in real time all the practical information that may be useful to you during the walk: presence of a point of water, a garbage can, places where dogs must be kept on a leash or even a remarkable point of view.
