GET ANOTHER PET TO LOVE!!! (...and be loved back.)
You just need to download an app on your phone that checks in with you each day and asks you to reply. If you fail to reply, it calls all the people you set it up to tell your pet is in trouble, so they can come to your pet's rescue. Here is a blurb about one such app:
"
Kitestring is a simple, free and overprotective web app. First, you enter a list of emergency contact numbers into your account. Whenever you want the app to look out for you, you let it know that you’re going on a trip and when you plan to return. At that time, the app will send you an SMS to check up on you, and you simply need to reply to confirm that you haven’t died. If you don’t respond, the app then alerts your emergency contacts."
You can set it for how often to check up on you. And of course, you need your phone or another device to give the GPS coordinates to where you and your pet can be found.
