How Pawppy works
Small steps make better friendships
See nearby dogs, learn what kind of hello they are ready for, and chat with their human before planning a walk or meetup.
Talk it through
Chat with another owner, share context, and decide together what a low-pressure hello looks like.
Meet thoughtfully
Plan a neutral-location meetup with simple reminders that keep both dogs’ comfort at the center.
Made for picky greeters, pandemic puppies, selective doggos, and dogs who want to hang out… but not too much.
Comfort comes first
Start exactly where your dog is
