BABELBARK PET CARE APP

If you sometimes feel overwhelmed organizing all the pieces of your pet’s care, the BabelBark pet care app might be something to look at.    Started as a way for vacationing pet owners to stay connected with their pets, the app has grown to be a solution connecting all the people in your pet’s life.

You are able to manage and connect your Vet, groomer, dog walker, boarding kennel, food service and more.    Additionally, you can easily share information and data across these folks.   Diet info, medical history, vaccination and prescription reminders are all stored and accessed via the app.  So, your Vet may see what type of food your dog has been eating and how often.  You can also easily review health history and receive notification reminders.  No more loose papers and document filing.   It’s all readily available 24/7 on your phone.
Here are some of the key features:
  • Create the circle of caregivers or “village” of people involved in your dog’s care. From this one place you can now easily find each person, their contact info, your pet’s history with them etc.
  • Set and manage appointments with your Vet, groomer, dog walker, kennel directly from your phone
  • Humans have FitBit and other activity trackers, BabelBark can help you create activity goals for you dog.   As you may expect, you can see graphs, summary data, reports and so on to see how progress is going
  • You can de-clutter your mind. The app will send notifications for upcoming appointments and times to give medicine and renew prescriptions
  • When you travel with your pet, you will see local vets, groomers, dog-walkers recommended by BabelBark

the business details of babelbark pet care app

As hinted in the opening of this article, BabelBark was started by pet owners because they were headed on vacation and wanted a way to stay connected to their pets and the people caring for them.   Originally intended for that small scale, the app was popular among others and steadily grew to become a full company and to offer the suite of features it has today.

Forbes website (forbes.com) has compared BabelBark to Uber and AirBnB from the perspective that the service is mobile first and is bringing value to a network.   Babel Bark connects all the people involved in caring for your pet and does so in a way that is easily accessible and used by people on their phones.

As of March 2020, almost 8,000 people like the company Facebook page and almost 2500 people follow them on Instagram.
