iPhone apps for pet lovers

Those of you who follow me on Twitter will not be too surprised to hear that I have recently learned of not 10 but 11 exciting iPhone apps for dog lovers! Here is the link to Mashable's list of the 10 Best iPhone Apps for dog lovers, and here is a link to a natural pet therapies iPhone app that I stumbled upon a few days ago.

The only app that I personally have tried myself is the PetMD Finder app. I chose to download this app for two reasons: 1)it's free and I can't resist a good freebie. 2)As a pet professional, I wanted to check out their pet services directory app. Of course, I then realized that I'd better hurry up and list myself in their service directory. Not surprisingly, they offer a free basic listing and then several paid upgrade options. My hunch is that they can afford to offer the app for free if pet professionals like myself choose to pay to be listed in their service directory!


My verdict thus far: I think it's pretty great that I can instantly & effortlessly find the closest dog parks, veterinarians and emergency clinics based on my current location!

So tell me: have any of you heard of any of these apps before? Tried them? Positive reviews, negative reviews? Any other apps I should add to my list? After all, if we can come up with just one more app that would be one app for each of the 12 days of Christmas...
