If your dog has ever mastered the art of looking tragically starved five minutes after breakfast, Life360 has bad news for it. On August 25, 2026, the family-tracking app rolled out a fresh batch of Care and Connection features aimed squarely at multi-human households where nobody’s quite sure who fed the cat.
The centerpiece is a set of shared care logs. Anyone in the family can tick off whether the pet has been fed, walked, medicated, or had its litter cleaned — and because everyone sees the same log, that guilty second dinner routine finally gets exposed. No more relying on the honor system of a Labrador.
Beyond the household bookkeeping, Life360 has added a few features that lean into pet personality rather than pure logistics:
- Pre-set recurring routines so feeding and walk schedules don’t live entirely in someone’s head.
- Zoomies Alerts, which track those chaotic bursts of energy pets get at specific points during the day or evening — a small but genuinely charming touch.
- Weekly Roundup, an activity recap that tallies things like distance walked and, crucially, which family member logged the most care that week. Consider it a leaderboard for people who claim they “always” walk the dog.
The software side is backed by new hardware. The Life360 Pet Tag is a stainless-steel QR code tag priced at $7.99. Its appeal is refreshingly low-tech: anyone who finds your wandering pet can scan the code to contact you or share the animal’s location — no app download required on their end. That’s a smart bit of friction removal, since the person who finds your escaped terrier is rarely a Life360 subscriber.
For households that want the full suite, Life360 offers the Silver Bundle at $99, renewing at $99/year.
The Life360 Pet Tag and GPS are sold through Amazon and Life360.com in the US, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and the UK.
The broader pitch here is coordination. Pet care in a busy home is a communication problem more than a technology one — the dog gets overfed because two people each thought the other skipped it. By turning routines into a shared, visible record, Life360 is essentially applying its family-location logic to the four-legged members of the household. Whether your pet appreciates the newfound accountability is another matter entirely.
