PetMatch Local helps future pet owners make a thoughtful choice before bringing a new companion home. Answer a guided lifestyle quiz about your home, yard access, schedule, allergy concerns, preferred temperament, size, energy level, and care comfort. PetMatch Local then recommends pet types and breeds that better fit your daily life. Each match includes practical reasons, care considerations, budget estimates, readiness notes, and next steps. The app also helps users explore nearby shelter, rescue, and responsible breeder options for the selected pet type or breed. PetMatch Local includes: Lifestyle-based pet recommendations Dog, cat, and rabbit matching paths Allergy-aware recommendation logic Temperament, size, energy, care, yard, and alone-time filters Side-by-side match comparisons Budget and readiness guidance Local shelter, rescue, and breeder search views Google Maps direction links Saveable matches and organizations Exportable action plans and contact lists ASPCA donation, membership, pet care, and cruelty-reporting links PetMatch Local is designed to support better pet decisions, encourage adoption and responsible sourcing, and help families think through the real needs of a pet before they commit. Important: PetMatch Local provides guidance and planning tools. It does not replace professional veterinary, behavioral, allergy, legal, shelter, or breeder advice.

Emergency fix for a startup issue that could cause the app to open to a blank white screen after the previous update. This version restores normal app launch behavior and keeps the expanded pet catalog, improved matching, and bundled pet images.
