Your pet is missing?We get the whole neighbourhood looking.

By putting your pet in front of the people who can actually help – your neighbours. 🐾 A normal Facebook post only reaches your own friends. We create a professionally designed missing-pet alert and show it as a paid ad to the many local people you don’t know, right around where your pet went missing – exactly the people who might spot them. Every sighting comes back to you, neatly organised, so no tip gets lost.

Sightings are saved in your dashboard and sent to you by email. If the finder leaves a contact number, you can follow up with them directly.

No. You provide your pet’s details through PawAlarm. If you choose paid advertising, PawAlarm sets up the ads; you do not need your own advertising account. People can submit sightings through the public search page without logging into Facebook.

There’s real reason to hope. 💛 Most lost pets are found close to home, and the single biggest factor is how many local people know to watch for them. That’s exactly what a paid alert does – it puts your pet in front of hundreds, even thousands, of nearby neighbours fast: the people most likely to spot them. Acting quickly, choosing a good radius, and following up on every sighting all tip the odds in your favour. We can’t promise a miracle, but we’ll give your search the very best chance. 🐾

Yes. 🏡 You can set the radius from 1 km upwards, so even in rural areas the alert reaches the people who live, work and pass through nearby. For very sparsely populated regions we simply recommend a slightly larger radius, so no helpful neighbour is missed.

All of them. 🐱🐶🐰🐦 Most searches are for cats and dogs, but rabbits, birds, and other beloved companions deserve to be found just as much. Whoever you’re missing, PawAlarm works the same way – getting their face in front of your community fast.

It’s never too late. 💛 Pets have found their way home days, weeks, even months later, often because the right person finally saw their photo at the right moment. As long as you haven’t given up, neither have we – a fresh alert can reach people who never saw the first round.

Within minutes. ⏱️ All you need is a clear photo and a few details about your pet – once you’ve entered them, your alert is ready. The ads then go through Meta’s short automated review and are usually live on Facebook and Instagram within about 60 minutes, reaching your chosen area.

Some things are always free: a printable poster, a step-by-step checklist, and your pet’s own search page where neighbours can report sightings. 🧡 What you pay for is reach – the professionally designed, sponsored local ads that put your pet in front of thousands of nearby people you’d never reach with a normal post.

It starts at CHF 49 for a three-day search, and you choose how many more days to run – paid once, up front. No subscription, no automatic renewal, no hidden fees. 🙂 We suggest at least three days, because the ads need a day or two to build full reach and many pets are found between days two and five. And if your pet comes home sooner, switch the ads off anytime with one click. There’s nothing further to pay – though any days you’ve already paid aren’t refunded.

The happiest moment! 🎉 Just mark your pet as found in your dashboard and we switch the ads off right away. And if you’d like, you can share your reunion story to give other worried pet parents a little hope too. 💛

They’re used only for your search – for the ads and your pet’s public search page, nothing else. 🔒 When the search is over you can have the page deleted at any time, and everything is handled under Swiss data protection law. Your trust matters as much to us as your pet does.
