It's no secret that people who have dogs not only like their dogs to meet other canines who they can play with, but also like running into other dog-owners, which is precisely why Canadian innovator Colin Jarvis-Gaum has developed a brand new meetup app that uses the now ubiquitous swiping interface to make these connections happen.
The 'Pawmates' app lets users view the profiles of other dog owners and details about their dogs, and allows them to swipe left or right to forge new connections. The app encourages users to post plenty of photos of their dog as well as information about their age, breed, personality, habits and other relevant tidbits.
What's more, this meetup app goes beyond bringing people and dogs together for singular connections, with the offering of the 'Pawmates Map' features letting users get information about animal-focused businesses and services in their area, ultimately helping to build a community of dog parents and pets.
