We provide drone search to help locate lost pets throughout the West Virginia panhandle. For these services we operate on an hourly rate plus mileage to cover flight time on equipment, pilot time, and travel to and from the search area. We donate a portion of any profits to local animal shelters. We bring experience, advanced imaging gear, and a methodical search approach to increase the chances of a safe recovery.

To prepare for a successful recovery please do the following:

• Gather recent clear photos of your pet and prepare a detailed description.

• Note the exact time and location where your pet was last seen.

• Check your property for possible escape routes and secure them.

• Walk or drive the surrounding roads calling your pet’s name and carrying familiar treats or toys.

• Your pet is likely under a lot of emotional stress, try to avoid searching with large parties of people. Just their favorite human should be calling for them.

• Post your pet’s photo and description on local social media and lost-pet pages. Make sure to ask that they do not attempt to catch your pet, just notify you that they were spotted unless your pet is extremely sociable.

• Alert local shelters and veterinary clinics.

• If possible, leave an article of clothing with your scent near the last-seen spot.

• If you enlist a drone operator to assist, update your social media posts so neighbors will expect aerial activity.
