TL;DR: PetPals is a social app directed at dog owners wanting to improve their experiences of walks, pet care and social networking.
Abstract: PetPals is a mobile application designed to address the problem of urban isolation among dog owners. The primary objective of the project was to develop an accessible, user-friendly platform that enables users to organize group walks, connect with others, and track their activity. The created app features real-time geolocation to find nearby users on a walk, customizable dog profiles to engage users, and physical activity tracking to promote healthier lifestyles for pets and their owners. The user-centred design of PetPals prioritizes simplicity and accessibility, ensuring smooth on-the-go use during walks. By bridging the gap between community building and pet care technology, PetPals aims to create a positive impact, encouraging healthier habits, stronger social bonds, and a more connected experience for dog owners everywhere.
