PitPat2 Dog Activity Monitor

We’re all doing it – wearing smart devices on our wrists and measuring our activity on our phones. What seemed like a craze a few years ago is an established thing today.

Now, with PitPat, your dog can do the same. PitPat gives you an easy way to keep track of your dog’s activity level, to manage their weight, and because it’s all about your dog, to have lots of fun along the way.

You can also use PitPat to keep an eye on the exercise your dog gets while other people (like a dog walker or kennel) are caring for them, or even to check up on your husband/wife.

PitPat is the UK’s number one dog monitor. Over the last few years, thousands of dog owners have discovered how interesting and useful it is to manage their dog’s activity and weight using PitPat. Read a few of their stories and check out what they’re saying online.

But don’t take our word for it. PitPat was designed with vets, and an increasing number of practices are recommending PitPat to every dog owner. Insurance companies too have recognised the health benefits of daily exercise and weight management, and they’re supplying PitPat to their policy-holders.

Why PitPat2?

Exercise keeps your dog healthy, but do you know if they're getting the right amount? PitPat gives you a fun way to find out. Unlike other activity monitors PitPat does not need to be recharged. Advanced power management allows PitPat to work for over a year using a low cost coin cell battery.  This helps reduce manufacturing cost, meaning PitPat is significantly lower cost than similar devices. PitPat also does not have a subscription fee.

How does PitPat2 work?

PitPat captures your dog’s motion using a three-axis accelerometer. Our advanced algorithms interpret this motion and translate it into specific activity types (e.g. walking, running, playing and resting). We then compare this data to guidelines from over 150 breeds of dog and provide simple advice and recommendations.

Will PitPat2 work with my phone?

PitPat works with the latest iOS and Android phones with Bluetooth 4.0 (also called Bluetooth Smart or Bluetooth Low Energy) built in. The PitPat app will be available as a free download from the App Store and Google Play.

Compatible iOS devices (running version 7.0 or newer): iPhone 4s, iPhone 5, iPhone 5c, iPhone 5s, iPhone 6, iPhone 6 Plus.

Compatible Android devices (running version 4.4 or newer): Including (not exhaustive) Google Nexus 4, Google Nexus 5, Google Nexus 6, Samsung Galaxy S3, Samsung Galaxy S4, Samsung Galaxy S5, Samsung Galaxy S6, HTC One, OnePlus One.

I have more than one dog, can I use more than one PitPat2 with my phone?

The PitPat app can support up to three PitPat devices, but you’ll need to have one PitPat per dog.

How do I find out what my dog has been up to?

Simply press the button on PitPat and the data collected is transferred to the PitPat app on your phone over Bluetooth. The PitPat device stores the last 10 days worth of activity. The PitPat app keeps a record of all data transferred to it.

Can I change the battery?

Yes, PitPat uses a low cost CR1632 coin cell (similar to a watch or remote control battery) which is available from most supermarkets or electronics stores.
