For those of us who live with a dog or cat and always say goodbye with a quick "back soon."

If you had an accident on the way back from the store — how many days would it take anyone to realize your dog is home alone?

Next of Paw is the first autonomous rescue system for pets: it notices when you don't come home, mobilizes your trusted guardians in cascade, and unlocks your keys and vet records only when a real emergency is confirmed.

Set up in 3 minutes · Your keys and codes stay encrypted (zero-trust) until an emergency is confirmed.

They're not "just pets".
They're family.

And family doesn't get left behind because of a bad day. Next of Paw works for all of them — dogs, cats, birds, the whole crew.

When you go on a trip, you tie everything down. The real danger is an ordinary Tuesday.

Emergencies don't check your calendar. This is what actually happens to the pet of someone who suddenly can't get home.

🛵

The everyday accident

You ride your motorbike, walk the trail, pop out for bread. If you faint or crash and arrive at the ER unconscious, your phone stays locked in your pocket.

🕰️

The silence at home

Family and friends typically need 24–48 hours to start worrying that you're not answering WhatsApp. For a pet without water, on timed medication, that's an eternity.

🔑

The chaos of keys

Even if a friend suspects something — do they know where your spare key is, your alarm code, the medication dose, or which vet to go to with legal authorization?

Zero daily friction. Automatic activation when you can't answer.

No arms to set, no timers to start when you leave for bread. It works because it's always on.

STEP 1

Invisible detection

The system notices when you leave home (or you flip Travel Mode) and starts a silent watch. If you're away longer than usual, your phone asks: "All good?"

STEP 2

Smart escalation

No answer? We check if it's just a dead battery or real inactivity, then we call you. Still nothing — or a paramedic scans your lock-screen QR — the Red Alert fires.

STEP 3

Crisis Room + vault unlock

Your Guardians get an SMS and call with a direct link — no app to install. The first to tap "I'm going for him" instantly unlocks house access, medical file, and your signed vet mandate.

Four pillars that make it fail-safe

🔐

Zero-Trust key vault

Nobody needs to know your alarm code or where the spare key lives — not today. That stays encrypted and is revealed only to the guardian who confirms they're going to the rescue after an unanswered alert.

📱

Lock-screen QR & Wallet pass

A dynamic QR on your lock screen and in Apple/Google Wallet. A doctor or officer scans it and can fire the alert to your guardians in one second — without unlocking your phone.

📄

Legal vet mandate, auto-generated

A friend can pick up your dog, but without your signature a vet hospital can block critical decisions. Your pre-signed mandate with an authorized spending limit lands on your guardian's phone automatically.

🗺️

Real-time coordination

No three friends driving over at once — and nobody staying home thinking someone else went. The Crisis Room shows live who took the rescue and confirms when your pet is safe.

Why the usual workarounds fail

Fair questions, straight answers

My phone died at the movies / I'm on a flight. Will my friends freak out? ⌄

No. Before alerting anyone we check your phone's telemetry (like battery below 5%), and you can pause the watch with one tap or schedule Flight/Cinema Mode. And we always call you first before contacting anyone.

Do my Guardians need to install an app or pay anything? ⌄

Absolutely nothing. When you add them, they get a web link to accept the role. In an emergency they receive an SMS and a call with a direct link to the Crisis Room — it opens in any browser instantly.

Is it safe to store where my key is hidden or my smart-lock code? ⌄

Everything is end-to-end encrypted. Day to day, even your guardians only see your pet's photo and name. The "house access" block only decrypts when the emergency timer expires without an answer from you and the guardian taps "I'm on my way".

Does detecting when I leave home drain my battery? ⌄

Zero. We don't track your GPS second by second. We use native OS events — like disconnecting from your home Wi-Fi or leaving your usual area — that cost less than 1% of battery per day.

Your dog can't call anyone.
You can, once — right now.
