Countywide service from our Orange County base

We serve all of Los Angeles County. Send the actual search location, even if it is far from central Los Angeles, so we can assess the area and discuss travel.

A missing pet in a dense neighborhood may need a different search plan from one recently seen near a trail, wash, canyon, or foothill. A map pin and the time of the latest sighting help us review the specific setting before arranging a visit.

What to send before we travel

  • A map pin or precise address for the escape point and each recent sighting.
  • The date and time of each sighting, with the direction your pet was moving.
  • A clear photo and details about size, color, breed, and identifying features.
  • Behavior information: whether your pet is skittish, approaches strangers, tends to hide, or normally stays indoors.
  • Access details: gates, private property, trail access, or anything that could affect reaching the search area.

If new sightings come in, send the updated location and time. That information can change which areas are most useful to check.

How we assess the search area

Access and visibility

We review where the team can reach the area and whether the drone will have a useful view. Buildings, heavy cover, and tight spaces under structures can limit what can be seen. Open land and recent sightings can provide a more defined place to start.

Weather and flight conditions

Heat, wind, rain, and other conditions affect whether a flight is practical and useful. We also review airspace restrictions for the exact location before confirming a search.

The next useful search step

For a dog moving through open terrain, a recent sighting may help narrow the flight area. For a cat hiding close to home, quiet ground searching around nearby sheltered spaces may need to come first. We discuss these details with you before arranging a flight.
