## What is Pet Cost Helper?

Ever wonder where all the money goes? Between the vet, the food, the boarding, and the "just one more toy," it adds up fast. Pet Cost Helper finally shows you the real number... and helps you stop overpaying.

Snap a photo of any receipt or vet bill, or forward the email the second it hits your inbox. Pet Cost Helper reads it, pulls the total, and sorts it. No typing. No spreadsheets. Just a clear picture of what your pets actually cost.

EMAIL IT IN
Every account comes with its own email address. Receipt hits your inbox, you hit forward. It's that easy. Next time you open the app, it's sitting there waiting for you.

READS ANYTHING
Paper receipts, email receipts, PDF invoices from the vet... even the messy crumpled ones. Line items, totals, discounts. It gets the details right.

EVERY PET, EVERY CATEGORY
See what each animal actually costs. Food & Treats, Vet & Medical, Grooming, Boarding, Insurance... all sorted automatically, by pet.

HOW DO YOU COMPARE?
See how your spending stacks up against a typical dog or cat. You're probably not typical. Now you'll know.

YOUR RECEIPTS ARE YOURS
No ads. No selling your data. Your receipts work for you, not against you.

Built by a guy with seven rescue dogs and cats who runs a dog training and boarding business. I built this because I'm the one drowning in vet bills and food receipts. I use it every day on my own animals... that's how I know it works.
