its been great to know how my 15 year old beagle mix is sleeping and her baseline activity. we are using it more as a monitoring software for early signs of any issues at her age. The one thing i wish it did was track her heart rate but i dont know how it would be tracked and also understand it would drastically increase the weight and size of the device. For an older dog like mine the gps tracking software offered by some competitors is irrelevant for us making fitbark the perfect tool.

I'm happy with Fitbark! It does everything it says it will do and I havent had any issues. The best part is my golden loves to run and it allows me to keep up with him. Its almost like a fitbit. LOL tells me how activity he's had, how much he sleeps, etc.

I love that I can see how active my 19 year old Cocker Spaniel is or isn’t depending on the day and time. I like to see how he is sleeping and what he is doing while I’m at work. Yesterday was good dog weather so he was outside a lot and was very active. I have peace of mind knowing how he is feeling by looking at his stats

Customer service is very nice and helpful

I honestly didn’t think I needed a dog activity tracker. Hermione is reactive, spends most of her life on lead, and if given the choice would happily schedule a nap instead of a marathon. I assumed a tracker was more for sporty dogs than for us. I was completely wrong. I’ve become slightly obsessed with checking her FitBark data. I love seeing her activity levels throughout the day, and I’ve even matched the different coloured covers to her collars because they look so good. In my opinion, they’re some of the nicest-looking dog trackers available. What surprised me most is how useful the sleep tracking has been. I’ve started noticing patterns between her sleep quality and her behaviour. If her sleep shows as more disrupted than usual, there’s a good chance she’s going to be more reactive or less able to cope with things that day. Having that extra piece of information helps me understand what’s going on with her instead of assuming she’s just having a “bad” day. I’ve also found it useful for keeping myself accountable. Because Hermione is reactive, our walks aren’t always straightforward, and I don’t necessarily walk her every single day. Being able to see her activity levels helps ensure I don’t accidentally leave too long between outings and encourages me to keep her routine ticking along. It’s a gentle reminder that’s surprisingly effective. Even for a reactive dog who never gets off-lead and isn’t exactly an athlete, I’ve found it incredibly useful. It gives me another way to monitor her wellbeing, and it’s become one of those gadgets I didn’t think I’d use but now check every day.

Love monitoring my high-energy pups progress! It's great to see the breakdown of rest, sleep, and play.. It also shows me how settled she is overnight.

I already track my activity with my Garmin watch and this is much better than putting my old garmin watch on my dog. I track my fitness, now I can track my dogs fitness. There are days that she will get a lot of exercise and I know she needs a brake and others days the app will tell me she still hasn't reached her goal and let's me know she still needs to go out one more time.

Oura for pets! Great to know how much my pup is playing, walking and sleeping every day. Love it! 💕
