About this app

Every day, get alerted when your pup leaves a safe place. In an emergency, track your dog from your mobile phone*. With 24/7 activity & sleep monitoring, FitBark is a new way to motivate you and your dog to be active, explain changes in behavior, and make better decisions about mobility, anxiety and skin conditions.

Note: This app requires a FitBark GPS, FitBark 2 or FitBark Dog Activity Monitor.

šŸ  GET WI-FI SAFE PLACE ALERTS*
Create multiple safe zones around familiar Wi-Fi networks (e.g. home, daycare, friendā€™s house) and get alerted when your pup leaves or enters one of these safe areas.

šŸ›°ļø PINPOINT GPS LOCATION IN MINUTES*
In case of emergency, quickly locate your dog anywhere in the U.S. via the embedded cellular service. Receive 1-minute location updates until you reunite with your dog.

šŸ¾šŸ’¤ MONITOR ACTIVITY & SLEEP 24/7. Track minute-by-minute activity, sleep quality, distance traveled, calories burned, and overall health and behavior. Set an ideal health goal, and rank your dog vs. breed, age and weight peers.

šŸƒā€ā™€ļø LINK YOUR HUMAN HEALTH TRACKER. Get active with your dog! Link your Fitbit or Google Fit device and stay healthy together. Talk about motivation!

šŸ© MONITOR MOBILITY & PAIN. Invite your trainer or veterinarian to monitor changes in mobility, osteoarthritis, or orthopedic rehabilitation. Follow the FitBark Health Index to catch early signs of discomfort or disease.

šŸ• MONITOR STRESS & ANXIETY. Glance at the Hourly View after you leave home to get valuable clues about your dog's anxiety levels and how he or she is doing when alone, or while in the care of other humans.

šŸ¶ MONITOR ITCHINESS & SKIN DISEASES. Keep tabs on the FitBark nightly Sleep Score to track the development of skin conditions over time, such as atopic dermatitis, infectious dermatitis, hot spots, or flea allergies.

šŸŽ“ ADOPTED BY 100+ RESEARCH INSTITUTIONS. FitBark is loved by dog parents and veterinarians in 140+ countries, including researchers from the University of Cambridge and the Mayo Clinic.

*Location-based features are only available for the FitBark GPS (U.S. only).

Developer please fix - when the app works and syncs it's great, and the metrics are really insightful, but the FitBark does not sync in the background, manual sync using the button in the app is hit and miss, and usually I have to force close and restart the app. I've double-checked all android settings (app is allowed to run in background unrestricted, no battery optimisation or network restriction etc.) and all are fine, the app sync is unfortunately just buggy and not fit for purpose.

The device is great, the app is terrible. The refresh icon might be a button that usually doesn't work, or it might just be an icon that randomly turns, who knows. You frequently have to force kill the app to get a refresh. You can see step counts in 2 parts of the app, one shows 0 some days, while the other shows actual steps, they are not always in sync. The more advanced features are not easy to navigate. The whole experience is just a buggy mess. So much wasted potential.

Hugely frustrating. They refuse to listen to their customers. The app interface is very poorly designed and horrible to use. There's nothing intuitive about the features. Imagine if Fitbit gave more page space to a photo of you, than the actual data you want to see. Useful functionality is hidden behind icons that are difficult to find. There's no way to check the battery level. Unless you're in America, the map functionality doesn't work. Please don't waste your money on this app.
