Our story

It all started with Kato.

Kato is my five-year-old Japanese Spitz, and he is my whole world.
A fluffy white dog resting on its side on a shaggy rug in the days after surgery, with shaved patches of fur on its legs.
The difficult days after surgery.
The same white dog standing on the rug, smiling at the camera with an owner's hand resting gently on its back.
A smile that made everything worthwhile.

Twelve months ago, Kato ended up in intensive care after a cluster of seizures. It was frightening. In the months that followed, I was juggling medication, vet visits, notes and questions, and I wanted all of it in one place.

Since then, I've spoken with hundreds of dog owners whose dogs live with seizures and epilepsy. Every dog is different, but so many of us share the same worry: am I keeping track of everything that matters?

PetPal is what I built for Kato, and for every owner who wants to feel more in control. From puppy days to golden years, it keeps your dog's everyday care in one calm place, so there's less worrying about the details and more room for the good moments.
