How it works
You file your report
Tell us what you lost, where, and when. We ask for clear details so we can route your case to the right channels and describe it accurately to shelters, police, and community groups.
We notify the right places
We alert the Suffolk County Police Department, local animal shelters and rescues if it's a pet, Huntington Town services, and the community networks where locals post found items. No more calling around yourself.
Your report keeps searching
For 12 months, your report automatically matches against new found posts, shelter arrivals, and community alerts. You get notified the moment a credible match surfaces, so you don't have to check Facebook groups or call every day.
