Overview
Do you own a dog? Did you get your dog in COVID like me? If yes, then you may have faced the problem of leaving your fur baby alone at home.
With their puppy eyes looking at you, excited to go out with you and then experiencing the pain of staying home alone.
You as a pet owner cannot enjoy thinking about what your pup is doing. Feeling guilty about depriving them of the great family experience.
Bark Map is drawn from my personal experiences as a pet owner who has a dog with separation anxiety.
