SpotLight GPS Keeps a Watchful Eye on Pets
Jul 22, 2009 - By Jared NewmanLittle is worse than that moment of panic when you can’t find your pet, especially when a thorough search of the house comes up empty. On the streets, your dog or cat could be anywhere, and that’s where SpotLight comes in. A GPS device, attached to the pet’s collar, tells you exactly where the pet is located. More than that, it lets owners establish safe zones and will e-mail or send a text message when the boundary is crossed, and a team of SpotLight staff are on hand all day, every day for support. When the search begins, SpotLight provides turn-by-turn locations to the pet’s whereabouts, and a beacon light on the collar is useful for night searches. Pricing is based on the number of emergency events per year, with a special price of $15 per month for unlimited events. For less mischievous pets, cheaper packages are coming soon.
