Lost pet

Report a lost pet

Lost pet form

Send a lost pet report

More identifying details

Optional. These are reporter-provided clues for matching and review. TrackTail AI may suggest missing traits separately, but suggestions stay unconfirmed until a reporter or reviewer confirms them.

Private image evidence

Optional JPEG, PNG, or WebP up to 8 MB. TrackTail keeps the original file private, then may publish only an AI-reviewed safe variant when every image, privacy, and public-record gate passes. It never proves ownership/custody.

Private reply email

Required for the autonomous happy path. TrackTail stores it masked, sends a report-scoped verification link, and never shows it publicly.

Need email instead?

Use email if the browser form is not enough for your photo or reply contact. Keep exact private addresses and sensitive proof out unless TrackTail asks through a governed follow-up.

Email with photos/contact

Safety first

TrackTail is not emergency dispatch. If the pet is hurt, trapped, in traffic, or there is a human safety risk, contact local emergency, vet, shelter, rescue, warden, or animal welfare help first. Then send public-safe details for review.

Before you send
  • Creates a review report and status reference; policy-clear reports may become public-safe listings automatically after TrackTail AI gates pass.
  • Turn off public listing permission when you need private help only. TrackTail AI will not auto-publish that report.
  • Use public area descriptions only. Exact addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses should stay out of form text.
  • Private image evidence can be added below for coordinator review. Private reply contact can be added below for masked coordinator review. Images are not public unless a later safe-image workflow approves them.

Final review

Confirm these limits before sending. Contact and original images stay governed.

How TrackTail reviews this

First report frame

Fast lost-pet path

Submit enough public-safe evidence to start review. TrackTail AI may publish safe facts when gates pass; it never reveals contact, confirms a match, closes a report, dispatches help, or proves ownership/custody.

Have a reference?

Check status

Status links add updates to a case thread; they do not grant private access or prove ownership/custody.

Review steps

  1. 1

    Describe the animal

    Name if known, species, markings, collar, and calm public-safe appearance details.

  2. 2

    Place the last seen area

    Use an approximate public landmark and time. Keep exact home or private address out.

  3. 3

    Send review evidence

    TrackTail records intake evidence first; publication, contact, and image decisions stay governed.

  4. 4

    Save the reference

    Use the report reference later for status, safe updates, photo/contact handoff, or corrections.

What helps reviewers

Add public-safe facts that help a reviewer understand the animal, timing, and area. Use the email path when you need to include photos or a reply address.

  • Pet name, species, breed or type, color, markings, and collar details.
  • When and where the pet was last seen, with the nearest safe public landmark.
  • Clear photos if you have them, especially markings or collar details.
  • Use the email option when you need to send photos or a reply contact.
