Thermal-drone lost pet search · Kansas City metro
Lost pet? We see what the night hides.
When a dog or cat goes missing, we fly a thermal drone over the area where they were last seen. Heat stands out from the sky — in yards, fields, woods, and brush — especially at dusk and after dark. KC Thermal Pet Recovery searches ground in minutes that would take hours on foot.

How it works
From call to search
Tell us where
Call, text, or start the intake. We need the last place your pet was seen, when, and which way they headed.
We fly the search
Thermal works best at dusk and after dark, when the ground cools and a warm body stands out. We scan the area from the sky, street by street and field by field.
We guide you in
If we spot a heat signature that fits, we talk you to the spot right away so you can call your pet in.
