## What is PawMatch?

PawMatch matches your pet with pets nearby. Create a profile for your animal, discover others of the same species around you, and chat with their owners once you match. And if your pet ever goes missing, post a lost listing in seconds and collect tips from people close to you.

BREEDING AND MATCHING
Finding the right mate for your pet is hard. PawMatch connects you directly with owners close to you.
• Build a profile with breed, age, gender, and vaccination details.
• Discover pets of the same species around you in a swipeable feed.
• Like or pass. A mutual like creates a match.
• Filter by distance and vaccination status so results stay relevant.

LOST PET LISTINGS AND TIPS
When your pet goes missing, seconds matter.
• Post a lost listing from your profile with last seen location, photos, and details.
• Your listing appears in the discovery feed of people nearby.
• Track incoming tips in one inbox and mark them as read.
• Close the listing once your pet is found, or withdraw it any time.
• Spotted a lost pet in your feed? Send the owner a tip directly.

PLAYMATES AND SOCIALIZING
Not every match is about breeding.
• Find playmates for your pet close to home.
• Arrange regular meetups so your pet stays social.
• Keep a separate profile for each of your pets and switch between them.

REAL TIME MESSAGING
Message matched owners inside the app. Messages arrive instantly and show read status.

LOCATION AND PRIVACY
• Your location is used only with your permission, to show pets nearby.
• Exact coordinates are never shared. Only approximate distance is shown.
• Photos upload only when you pick them.

SAFETY
Report inappropriate photos and profiles from inside the app, and block anyone you do not want to see. You can delete your account at any time.

Download PawMatch and introduce your pet to the world around them.
