Settlepaw: Separation Anxiety
Dog Separation Anxiety Trainer
Free · In‑App Purchases
If you've stood outside your own front door listening to your dog panic on the other side, this app is for you.
Settlepaw is a systematic desensitization trainer for dog separation anxiety — built by an owner who lived through exactly this with his own dog, and got tired of guesswork, spreadsheets, and advice that didn't fit his dog's actual pace.
How it works
Most separation anxiety advice tells you to "build up slowly." Settlepaw tells you exactly how slowly — for your dog, specifically.
Answer a short assessment and Settlepaw calculates your dog's real threshold: the exact number of seconds they can be alone before stress starts. Every session after that is built from your dog's own data, not a generic script. Progress is measured, not guessed at.
What you get, free, always
- The full threshold assessment — the single most useful number in the app, yours from day one
- Pre-departure cue training
- Your first sessions, with full progress feedback and charts
- A clear path to your vet, always visible, never gated
Nothing about your dog's history is ever locked away. Your past sessions, progress charts, and a PDF summary you can share with your vet or trainer stay visible and yours to keep, always.
When you're ready for more
Once your dog is showing real progress, you can unlock the full generated training plan:
- A monthly plan you can cancel anytime
- A one-time lifetime purchase with no recurring charge, ever — no annual trap disguised as a discount, no fake countdowns
A certified separation anxiety trainer typically runs 5,000–15,000 NOK for this same protocol — Settlepaw doesn't.
Built to respect your dog's data
Settlepaw has no backend. Your dog's training history syncs through your own iCloud account — never through our servers, because we don't have any. Nothing is sold, nothing is tracked for ads.
Settlepaw supports an evidence-based behavior protocol. It does not diagnose, treat, or replace veterinary or professional behavioral care — for dogs with severe or worsening symptoms, please talk to your vet.
Your dog can get better at this. Let's find out how fast, together.
