Can You Track Pets with GPS? What You Need to Know

Pet owners often ask if they can use our GPS trackers for their furry friends. Here's what you need to know.

The Short Answer

Our Trixy GPS Tracker is designed for assets, not pets. However, some pet owners have found creative ways to use it.

Limitations for Pet Use

  • The tracker isn't waterproof enough for swimming dogs
  • It's not designed to attach to a collar
  • Battery life may not be ideal for active pets

When It Might Work

  • Large dogs that wear a harness or backpack
  • Tracking a cat carrier during travel
  • Monitoring a pet's crate or bed

Better Pet Tracking Options

For dedicated pet tracking, consider a tracker specifically designed for animals with collar attachment, waterproofing, and appropriate size.
