From a 12-week challenge to a 10–15-year relationship.

PetPrep gives parents objective proof of whether their child is ready for a real pet — and then stays with the family for the animal's whole life.

The opportunity

Problem

Children promise to care for a pet; parents have no neutral way to test it before committing money and years of care.

Solution

A realistic 12-week simulation with a live parent dashboard and an objective Care Score, ending in a Certificate of Responsibility.

Expansion

After adoption, an AI assistant for the real pet: collar data, AI first contact with vets, growth and nutrition, partner services.
