One listing at a time from each list. Every published pet is on the map above and in the full directory.

How AI Pet Matching Works

1

Report

You tell us a pet is missing, or that you have found one. The report goes into a private case straight away, and you are given a case reference immediately.

2

Compare

Each new report is compared against open cases across the metro — photographs, description, place and timing together.

3

Human review

A person checks every report before it is published, and every possible match before anyone is contacted. The system produces leads, never identifications.

4

Reconnect

Contact is designed to pass through a protected relay, so neither side is ever shown the other’s phone number, email or address. We cannot send email or text messages yet, so news reaches an owner when they next open their case page rather than as an alert.

A possible match is a lead for a person to check. It is never a decision about whose pet an animal is. Read how matching works in detail.

Exact Locations Stay Private

Every point on this map is deliberately imprecise. What is published is a generalized area, not the place a pet went missing — and never a home address.

The shaded ring around a selected pet shows that generalized area. The dashed ring is a suggested search zone: a search-planning aid based on species and how long the pet has been gone. It is not a prediction of where the animal is.

  • No exact address is published, ever.
  • No owner or finder contact details appear on this site.
  • Sighting reports are private. They are held for the owner to read on their own case page — we cannot email or text anyone yet.
  • Your location is only used if you press Use My Location, is never stored, and is never sent to us.
  • No action taken on this map closes or resolves anyone’s case.

Participating Shelters and Data Sources

Shelter listings appear on this map only where a shelter has connected a feed or given us a figure directly. We publish counts in exactly two situations, and nothing else:

Live FeedCounts pulled from the shelter’s own system.
Partner-Provided UpdateA figure the shelter gave us, shown with its date.
Feed Not ConnectedNo number is shown at all. This never means the shelter is empty.

No shelter feed is connected yet, so no shelter appears on the map today and no shelter figure is shown anywhere on this page. We do not estimate, scrape or infer shelter populations, and a shelter is never shown as “0 cats / 0 dogs” because we could not reach its data. Information for shelters and rescues.

Reunited Stories

Not yet published. This section will carry real reunion stories, with the owner’s permission, once there are reunions on this platform to tell. It is deliberately empty rather than filled with stock photographs and invented outcomes. See how reunion stories are published.

Kansas City Pet Events

Wired to the events calendar, no entries yet. Community events appear here when the Pet Events Calendar has published entries for the metro. Open the Kansas City Pet Events calendar.

Powered by KC Pet Search & Rescue

KC AI Pet Match is built alongside KC Pet Search & Rescue, which has been helping Kansas City families find lost pets on the ground for years. The matching platform is free to use: reporting a lost or found pet, searching public listings and reviewing possible matches cost nothing.

Some services offered separately by KC Pet Search & Rescue are paid. Free use of this matching platform does not mean everything connected to it is free.
