Lyrics: Lost Dog Reunited in Bessemer, AL!
“She is 15 with hip problems. I thought she was past her ‘escape’ stage for a long time now. Friday night, we finished a walk, and she flopped down on my back porch. I went inside for a few minutes, and when I came out, she was simply gone. Could not find her anywhere. She was gone for almost 3 days.
My sister in Albuquerque recommended PawBoost, so after 2 days of hunting for her, I made a report on PawBoost. I got a message telling me to look in Found Pets, and there she was! I went to visit the people who cared for her, but they said she was gone again. Having the recent sighting on PawBoost helped me target the neighborhood where she was last seen with flyers on every mailbox.
Several hours later, I got a call from a family that found her in their yard, so I went to meet them and retrieved my dog. They were very nice people.
She was missing 68 hours through 2 rounds of a big thunderstorm. It was PawBoost putting her Lost Report on Facebook that ultimately resulted in her being found and returned to me.”

Seamus: Lost Cat Reunited in Lewes, DE!
“Seamus somehow slipped out of our second-floor apartment without us noticing. We started searching for him that night and for several weeks afterwards, going through our neighborhood at night with flashlights, shaking boxes of treats, and calling his name.. We tried a humane trap, leaving out food and familiar-smelling items, posting flyers, and flooding social media.
8 weeks after Seamus went missing, we were contacted by a family who had been feeding Seamus in their yard for about a month. They didn’t use social media, but a friend had shown them his PawBoost Facebook ad, which had just been posted with a “still missing” update. He contacted me the next day. And it did turn out to be my boy! We never gave up hope!
Seamus was ultimately located due to the PawBoost lost alert. My subscription for Facebook and Instagram ads had just renewed the day before I was contacted.”
Found Dogs Reunited in Odenton, MD!
“The dogs were seen walking in my neighborhood for approximately 30 min. I returned to my home to grab leashes, and when I walked outside, they were both already on my front lawn, and I was able to coax them inside with the leashes.
I posted up on the Nextdoor and PawBoost apps and began to talk to the neighborhood with the dogs as I waited for a response. PawBoost definitely helped find the owners, and very quickly after posting.
Just over an hour from when I first saw the dogs and posted them on PawBoost, I was contacted by friends of the owner, and the owner made their way to my home.
I have had to use PawBoost for both lost & found pets of my own and others, and it has always been helpful in getting the word out. It also has a lot of very easy features that make a clean Lost poster, and easy to share across platforms.”

Luna: Lost Cat Reunited in Chicago, IL!
“Luna was very adventurous & enjoyed going outside. He would always come back & this particular day, he didn’t come back home. We believed he went to the alley and didn’t come back.
A nice lady called me & told me that she thought she was feeding Luna as a stray cat. This was already after a year since he went missing. We went to see if it was him & IT WAS!! It took many tries & months for us to get close enough to trap him & bring him back home.
If it wasn’t for our post on PawBoost, I’m sure that lady wouldn’t have known that he was a missing cat. My post was seen & that is how we got Luna back.”

Jimbo: Lost Dog Reunited in Henderson, NV!
“He was let out in our gated backyard to use the restroom with our labradoodle. When we went to let them back in the house, he was nowhere to be found. There is a tiny water drainage hole that he can fit through, and our gate has been fidgety since the heavy winds, so I’m not sure how he escaped, but he did.
PawBoost was recommended to me by neighbors. I posted him on this site along with others. He was missing all night, and we were preparing to print posters and go knocking on doors when I received the email that he had been found and was safe! I was able to go pick him up immediately.
He went missing late evening and was returned home the next morning, so close to 12 hours. We were so lucky that he was taken in and safe! I can’t speak enough about what a great resource PawBoost is to not only find my pet, but help others reunite with theirs as well.”
