Dogsafe
Description
DogSafe helps you decide if it's safe to walk your dog right now. • Live weather and estimated pavement temperature for your location • Personalized safety verdicts based on breed, size, and age • High-temperature and heatstroke warnings • Winter hazard alerts (ice, salt, frostbite risk) • Best walk-time windows for the next 24 hours • Save multiple dog profiles for your household DogSafe is a walk planner for dog owners who want more than a quick weather check — breed-specific safety, pavement heat, and the best times to walk today. Pay once. No subscription. WHY DOGSAFE? • One purchase — no monthly fees (unlike many pet weather apps) • Built for households with multiple dogs — one clear verdict for everyone • Tells you when to walk, not just whether it is safe right now — best windows for the next 24 hours • Goes beyond air temperature — heat index (humidity), UV/sun pavement warnings, and winter hazards SAFETY THAT FITS YOUR DOGS • Personalised verdicts from breed, size, age, and coat traits (including flat-faced breeds) • Mixed-breed? Set custom traits manually • Save a profile and photo for each dog PAVEMENT & WEATHER • Estimated pavement heat for asphalt, concrete, and grass — enable every surface you walk on • Sun warning when the air feels mild but direct sun could still burn paws • Live weather for your location (Open-Meteo) • Winter alerts for ice, salt, and cold exposure PLANNING & ALERTS • Hourly safety outlook and recommended walk windows • Morning and afternoon check-ins — alerts when conditions change, not notification spam • Home screen widget — glance at today’s verdict and temperature PRIVACY • Dog profiles stay on your device • Location is used only to fetch local weather — no account required • No ads IMPORTANT DogSafe provides safety estimates, not veterinary advice. Always use the 7-second hand test on pavement before walking on hard surfaces.
