Pet Care Games
Forty-three animals to look after. Searching this catalogue for pets returns puppets, carpets and St. Petersburg.
43 games · hand-picked, then filled from the catalogue
virtual pet games 2,300 a month, dog games 2,400, pet care games 1,400, pet grooming games 1,000. In Brazil the same subject is one of the biggest we measured anywhere: 26,500 a
month.
How this list is put together
Here are forty-three, chosen one at a time.
First, the funniest reason for choosing by hand
The catalogue holds a hundred and twenty-six games with pet, dog, puppy or vet in the title. More than seventy are not about animals at all, and English is entirely to blame.
pet lives inside puppet, inside carpet, inside St. Petersburg, and inside competition. So a search for pets returns:
Puppet Killer. Puppet Master. Puppets Cemetery. Red Carpet Dress Up Girls. Subway Surfers St. Petersburg. Obby: Swimming competition.
And dog lives inside hotdog, underdog and doge, which gives us Yummy Hotdog 2 and Underdogs Puzzle Odyssey.
Along with nails — where nail is also a carpentry nail and snail is one letter away — this is the best set of substring traps in the whole catalogue. None of them is visible without reading all hundred and twenty-six titles.
A few more were left out for carrying somebody's brand: Pou, two Subway Surfers and a Strawberry Shortcake. They stay in the catalogue, just not on a page we call chosen.
What the forty-three are
| what they are | how many |
|---|---|
| caring: feeding, bathing, play, the house | 20 |
| dogs specifically | 8 |
| vet clinics and daycare | 6 |
| grooming salons | 5 |
| puzzles and matching with animals | 7 |
The core is caring, and nearly all of it is built for small children: large targets, no way to lose, and the animal is happy at the end.
One pet shop, against 3,600 monthly searches for it in Portuguese alone. That is the clearest gap here.
One honest limitation
A virtual pet is supposed to remember you. These do not: they run in a browser tab with no account, so closing it ends the pet's day and the next visit starts fresh.
That is a real difference from the app-store versions people usually mean by the phrase, and worth knowing before you get attached.
Weight and phones
The median is 8.7 MB, a little above the catalogue's 7.8 MB.
Nine of forty-three are marked for touch. Looking after an animal means clicking a lot of small things — the bowl, the brush, the toy — and that was drawn for a mouse.

How many are there?
Forty-three, chosen by hand. The catalogue holds a hundred and twenty-six with pet, dog, puppy or vet in the title, and more than seventy are something else entirely.
What do you do in them?
Twenty are caring: feeding, bathing, playing, tidying the house. Six are vet clinics, five are grooming salons, eight are specifically dogs, and the rest are puzzles with an animal in them.
Are there virtual pets you keep coming back to?
A few, but none of them saves your progress across visits, because these run in a browser tab with no account. `virtual pet games` is searched 2,300 times a month and that is the part we serve least well.
Is there a pet shop?
One. It is the clearest gap on the page.
Do they work on a phone?
Nine of the forty-three. Looking after an animal means clicking many small things — the bowl, the brush, the toy — and that was drawn for a mouse.
