# Dog Matching Services 'PawsLikeMe' Pairs Pets with Owners Through a Personality Compatability Test By Cadhla Gray | Published 2015-10-14 | Lifestyle Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-matching References: [caplex](http://ca.complex.com/pop-culture/2015/10/pawslikeme-pet-matchmaking-service-pairs-owers-with-the-perfect-companion) & [pawslikeme](http://pawslikeme.com/) This [dog matching service](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/adopt-me) hopes to provide soulmate-like pairings of pets and owners to give dogs a permanent and loving home. Like a [human matchmaking service](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ai-matchmaker), PawsLikeMe invites users to take a two to five minute personality quiz, looking at four main traits: focus, confidence, energy and independence. The site then scans through all possible options and provides the user with a match. The Florida-based company even states that they have a 90% accuracy rate. The idea is based on the fact that all dogs have a different personality disposition, just like humans. Simply knowing the general disposition of a certain dog breed is supposed to have doesn't guarantee that an individual dog has it. By finding a well-fitted match and doing so in a fun and interactive online method, the dog matching site increases the rate of [successful adoptions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/date-cats-not-humans). Through the site, hopeful pet owners can go from start to finish, even making an easy adoption payment online. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 4.0/10 - Popularity: 41% | Activity: 72% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Pets](https://www.trendhunter.com/pets) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Pet Personality Testing:** Creating and implementing personality compatibility tests for pets and owners to increase the success rate of adoption. - **Interactive Pet Adoption:** Developing online platforms that make the process of finding and adopting a pet more fun and engaging. - **Accurate Pet Matching:** Using data analytics and algorithms to accurately match pets with their ideal owners, increasing the likelihood of a permanent and loving home. ### Where This Applies - **Pet Adoption:** Incorporating personality compatibility tests and online adoption platforms to increase the success rate of pet adoptions. - **Data Analytics:** Developing algorithms and machine learning models to accurately match pets with their ideal human companions. - **E-commerce:** Creating online payment systems to make pet adoption easier and more accessible for hopeful pet owners. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Pooch-Preferring Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dating-app-for-dog-lovers.md) - [Canine-Centric Meetup Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/canine-centric-meetup-app.md) - [Puppy Dating App Giveaways](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/puppy-dating-app-giveaways.md) - [Dog-Friendly Dating Pop-Ups](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-friendly-dating.md) - [Connective Canine Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dog-park-app.md) - [Parental Pet Networks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/petters.md) - [AI-Enhanced Pet Adoption Photos](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/personality-pics.md) - [Pet Services Platforms](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/petsetlife.md) - [Feline-Focused Dating Apps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cat-lovers-dating.md)
