Partnering with Finding Rover using revolutionary technology to identify lost pets in Sumter County, Florida

YOUR Humane Society SPCA joins the ranks of shelters in using facial recognition technology to identify lost dogs and cats. This shelter now offers their community an additional tool to help lost and adoptable dogs and cats find their forever homes.

Now every dog and cat that enters YOUR Humane Society SPCA’s shelter system, it becomes registered on Finding Rover. Users of Finding Rover can search the shelter and surrounding areas right from their smartphone or computer in efforts to find a missing pet as well as search for adoptable pets.

Celine Petrie, Acting Director of Sumter’s no-kill shelter commented “This is one more way we strive to keep your pets safe. In addition to the current resources we provide our community such as our free emergency wallet cards, our disaster prep handouts and our pet alert window clings, we wanted to add another important component to a pet owner’s toolkit with Finding Rover, an amazing application of facial recognition technology for pets.”

Every dog and cat that leaves YOUR Humane Society SPCA, through a reunion or an adoption, can remain protected on Finding Rover when the pet parent registers on Finding Rover with the same email address that the shelter has on file. If that dog or cat ever gets lost, their record will already be in the system, and identifying that pet will be a snap.

Registration of your pet is FREE and as simple as 1, 2, 3!
Just go to www.FindingRover.com and:

1. Upload your pet’s photo
2. Enter a few details about your pet
3. Enter your name, email address, and zip code

That’s it! Once your pets are registered, they’re protected for life.

When a community comes together on Finding Rover, more dogs and cats can find homes. Please help more pets find a home and spread the word through their Facebook and Twitter pages too.

In addition to helping lost pets find home, Finding Rover also features dogs and cats that are available for adoption! Find your next family member with Finding Rover!

You can view YOUR Humane Society SPCA’s found and adoptable pets with just a click on our Finding Rover Facebook Widget and on our Website Widget!

Together our community can become the NUMBER ONE user of this new technology. Register for FREE on Finding Rover today and help spread the word! The more people that are registered on Finding Rover, the more we can all help reunite lost dogs and cats with their families and place adoptable pets in new homes. In doing this we can all help to save more lives!
