### 4/5 — Cute Game but it has glitches

*2026-08-20*

This game is ADORABLE but it has a few glitches like; my cat is dirty I have to clean him for 10 minutes , he also never gets thirsty. Please please! Read this and update. Also I have suggestions: Vets, baths, pets having bonds with each other, Siamese cats, Ragdolls, Dog breeds like whippets and huskies. Thank you for reading this review.

### 4/5 — Remove one button, please!!

*2026-08-17, version 1.2.6*

I love my pets so much but please remove the giveaway button. I hate it so much. It’s the worst button I have please just please.

### 4/5 — Add something

*2026-07-24, version 1.2.5*

The game is OK, but they should add a Maine coon cat and a Doberman

### 3/5 — It annoys me

*2026-07-10, version 1.2.5*

I hate that you can only have three games and also it is always young adult pets I go on almost every day to see if it’s baby or puppy/kitten and never is 😭💔😡

### 3/5 — Mucho fofo mas….

*2026-06-25, version 1.2.3*

O problema é eu não consigo desinstalar

### 4/5 — Круто и мило, но…

*2026-05-23, version 1.2.1*

Всё круто конечно было бы но я не могу одевать своего питомца одежда-то есть но как одеть непонятно ещё как довести второго питомца пожалуйста можете мне объяснить как завести второго питомца и одеть питомца у меня там пиджачок а моего Мунагуси не одеть! Да и друг ему не помешает.

### 4/5 — good, but i’m stuck!

*2026-05-18, version 1.2.1*

i think this game is super fun and cute, my little nephew loves it and so do i. this would be five stars, except for the fact that i am not able to pass level fifteen because of a glitch where i cannot give my pet water, and their water need never goes down. it’s been like this for two days. honestly it’s a cute game but if i can't fix it, i'll probably delete it.

### 5/5 — Purrfect game 😺

*2026-05-12, version 1.2.1*

I am a cat lover and adore this game soo good here are somethings that are good about this game :
You can have a cat and dog,
Good texture, 
Baby’s are adorable, 
You can have one grownup and two puppies or kitties,
And they act soo cute 🥰 
But still it is hard to get to level to level I really recommend this to cat and dog lovers bye for now 👋🏻

### 4/5 — Need update please

*2026-05-06, version 1.2.1*

Needs update thanks bye hanks 🤣

### 5/5 — TOTALLY RECOMMEND! (PLEASE READ!)

*2026-05-01, version 1.2.0*

I love this game! So realistic, and I love those games where you get to walk your dog, but there aren’t many. So finding this game was great. Also SUPER glad they made an arcade version. I love that you get to grow your own dog/cat! I am currently working on getting my  lab to adulthood. I would rather have an adult dog than a puppy, but growing it is fine by me. I mean, that's how it goes. This game is also good for people that don’t have a dog and they want one. So, I totally recommend! There is a with my dog, and a with my cat.  But I love they added BOTH of these. So yeah, this is a great game! Thank you, Neilo! Have a great day/night!

### 4/5 — Please

*2026-04-26, version 1.2.0*

Please add collies, aussie shepards, and a new kind of buddy a rabbit cause you see one on the loading screen somtimes also mb add a feature that u can foster care animals and animals can get elderly and stuff you could put in settings animal death also maybe make it a little less.. soulless I was hoping for like idk smth like nintendodogs my childhood.

### 4/5 — Great, But needs more

*2026-04-23, version 1.2.0*

I love this game, and it’s so fun to hang out with the pets and give them names and pet them! The only problem is how it’s not very interesting once you do everything for one day. When your pet is full, isn’t thirsty, is happy and so on and so forth, there’s not much to do except play around with them a bit. I think there could be a little bit more to it.

### 5/5 — So cute 💕

*2026-04-22, version 1.2.0*

I love it 💕best game ever ❤️

### 2/5 — Slow

*2026-04-19, version 1.2.0*

I’m so sad it’s a fun game and the animals are cute but it’s so slow it took me forever to get it to work so sad

### 5/5 — GOOD 👍

*2026-04-12, version 1.2.0*

It’s a pretty good game. It’s just kind of slow and like for some reason like mine always glitches it makes it so that like the brushing thing never works but other than that it’s a pretty good game so yeah.

### 5/5 — Super cute

*2026-04-06, version 1.2.0*

I love dogs so I clicked on this and I now love it

### 5/5 — Есть одежда есть как одевать  нету

*2026-03-31, version 1.1.3*

Игра супер но как одевать и понятно одежда есть а как одевать неизвестно

### 4/5 — Still love it, just a few (or a couple ideas) you could act on

*2026-03-31, version 1.1.3*

I’ve been playing for a while now and some of the reviews I’ve seen are people complaining about the gameplay and how it’s “emotionless” and stuff. The thing is I don’t get what they think is wrong with it (MUCH). 

Update: I just had a few (or so) ideas for what you could maybe add. Maybe you could add more emotions like say they can get sad or upset or annoyed, etc. And please, please, PLEASE try adding more animals that you can (legally) have as pets. For example: Birds, Fish, Bunnies/Rabbits and others (along with the needed things for them obviously).  And possibly (this one is just a suggestion) add little “alerts” or maybe even signs from the pets that they’re hungry or thirsty. Multiplayer, possibly?  Chat interactions with other players? Accounts even? Maybe even actually play with other people in a 2 to 8 player “server”

### 5/5 — Good just one thing

*2026-03-30, version 1.1.3*

This is a awesome game but it takes like a year to download

### 1/5 — Dodo

*2026-05-17, version 1.2.1*

Its dodo

### 1/5 — 이름에서 넘어갈 수 없음

*2026-03-30*

한글 된다면서 모든 글자를 거부함
장난해?

### 1/5 — BUG They cant get thirsty anymore!

*2026-01-11, version 1.0.15*

Ive waited so long and they cant get thirsty anymore, Ive tried to walk them, wait it out, and nothing. I saw another review like mines and see this is an ongoing issue. Hopefully this gets read.  This is a very important bug that needs to get fixed or its unplayable I cant level up anymore. I was enjoying the game until this has happened.

### 1/5 — 진짜 못 만든 게임

*2025-12-14*

물이나 음식 먹이는 미션인데 물 음식 줘도 그냥 목 마르다 배고프다만 나옴ㅋㅋㅋ 
자유성도 떨어지고 중간에 버그도 많고 단순하고 금방 흥미가 떨어짐

### 1/5 — 한국어 지원 부족

*2025-11-24*

1. 한국어 이름 설정이 안 됩니다.
2. 수분 수치가 최대치일 때에도 ‘목이 마른 모양입니다’라고 뜹니다. ‘목이 마르지 않습니다‘가 옳습니다.
3. 산책 중 땅을 파서 아이템을 얻을 때 일어 문구로 뜹니다.

 전체적으로 한국어 지원이 부족하여 베타단계인 것처럼 느껴집니다.

### 1/5 — 3

*2025-10-29, version 1.0.12*

العبه ماتشتغل

### 1/5 — うーん……

*2025-09-11*

with My DogとCatをプレイしてからこちらに来ているのですが、まず気になった事が複数あります。

1つ目として、鳴き声が初心者の人間が担当してるのか？と思ってしまうような稚拙さを感じてしまいプレイをしていて正直かなり萎えます。これなら動物(もどき？)の音声はなくていいかなー笑
見た目はリアルな感じなのに鳴き声が初心者の人間の物真似レベルて……。
ちゃんと本物の動物の声を録音して使用してますか？

2つ目として、探索や散歩でマーキング場所やマタタビや休憩所などを指示したのかがタップ後に三角が消えたりしないので指示が出来たのか出来てないのか分かりづらいだけで今のところなんこれ状態です。
しかも、ちゃんとタップして指示をしているのにも関わらず動物達がまるで従わず暴れ回る始末。
そこはdogとcatのがしっかりしてましたね〜。草とかがバグっててありえない事に結構な頻度でなりますがw

そして最後になりますが種類がdogやcatよりも更に減ってる上に散歩などの背景や、動物達の衣装、餌などが全てdogやcatの引用じゃないですか…やる気あります？
個人的意見ですが、全くやる気が感じられません。
こんな今の状態でこれからも900円を取り続けるんです？
さすがにそれは詐欺と訴えられても仕方のないレベルのボッタクリではないでしょうか……

### 1/5 — Would have given it five

*2025-08-31, version 1.0.9*

I’m very sad to give this one star because if the game had actually worked I would have given it five.
 
REASON I GAVE IT ONE STAR :
I gave it one star because every time I pressed the app it just went straight back to my home screen I tried to delete it then download it agai but that does not work at all

### 1/5 — Frustrating

*2025-08-24, version 1.0.9*

This game is really fun but just keeps glitching and freezing! I can’t even quit the app because it won’t save my place. For example it told me to give my buddy water to complete a mission but it won’t get thirsty, and even though I have unlocked decorations and I keep buying the decorations it still says I don’t have any. And one time my buddy was meant to grow up because the bar was full but it won’t give me a paw print. I really liked this to begin with but it’s just disappointing and very, very frustrating. I definitely don’t recommend this game.

(A couple of months after deleting the game) Thankyou so much for reading my review and fixing the problems I mentioned. But I just re-downloaded the game and my buddy still sometimes won’t get thirsty when it should be. But I love the new breeds that have been added! Maybe you could think about adding a Pomeranian to the dogs and a fluffy Siamese to the cats. Also maybe include giving your pets baths and trips to the vets. Thanks 😃

### 1/5 — اللعبه لا تعمل

*2025-08-06, version 1.0.9*

خربانه اللعبه

### 5/5 — Best decision EVER!!!

*2026-08-06, version 1.2.6*

I’ve only been playing for 3 days BUT IT IS SO FUN especially when you get to the baby part where you get to take care of them for their WHOLE LIFE!!! Such a cool game!

### 5/5 — Pls fix this bug for German shepherds name

*2026-07-27, version 1.2.5*

My German shepherd Germany is at puppy stage at the final two but the bar isn’t filling up weird I have done stuff for him but it would not fill up the bar

### 5/5 — Love this one

### 5/5 — I LOVE THIS GAME SO MUCH

*2026-05-29, version 1.2.1*

I have played this game for 190 hours in a little more than a month and I am still playing it is so good! I’ve always wanted cats but my dad Is allergic so it’s really nice that I can finally kinda take care of one! I have a bengal (I think she’s a bengal)    named Rihanna and a Japanese cat named Drake and they are SO cute I’m really happy with this game.

### 5/5 — Perfect (not exactly)

*2026-05-24, version 1.2.1*

This game is perfect and you should get it if you don’t have it. Although 1 condition. When I take my cat (shorty) on an exploration, he runs into catnip trees. No reaction. He runs into rocks. No reaction. Also, when I reached owner level 28, I got to do hide and seek ONLY ONCE. What menu can you use hide and seek? Please Please Please fix this bug and thank you.



P.S, developers, please see this from now to 1/1/2027

### 5/5 — Great game

*2026-05-14, version 1.2.1*

There’s a glitch in the game when you click on pet icon it won’t let you pet the animal. The animal just keeps walking away and you can’t go back to main menu but love the game
