GPS Tracking for Pets

Global Positional Systems, or GPS, are often used to determine specific positions on Earth. GPS systems can be used for finding satellite-computed directions, tracking vehicles or following the locations of a loved one or pet.

  1. Purpose

    • The purpose of GPS tracking for pets allows owners to immediately identify where a lost pet is at a given time. This technology can alert pet owners when a pet leaves pre-determined boundaries.

    How it Works

    • GPS tracking devices for animals work with a collar attached to the pet and a receiver that the owner keeps. The GPS tracker follows the pet's exact location. The information is then transferred to a personal digital assistant (PDA) or personal computer. This technology can reveal the animal's precise location.
