What is PetForWeb?
PetForWeb is a free Google Chrome extension that adds an interactive virtual pet to your browser tabs. You can drag your pet, dress them up, feed them, play fetch, and enjoy mood-based reactions that persist across reloads.

Does PetForWeb read my passwords or full browsing history?
No. PetForWeb does not collect passwords, form inputs, banking data, private messages, or full page content. Optional activity insights use limited domain-level signals when you enable those features.

Can I uninstall PetForWeb?
Yes. Remove the extension from chrome://extensions at any time. You can also clear stored extension data from the popup or your account settings when signed in.
What are the optional AI features?
When signed in and enabled, PetForWeb may generate short, playful comments about broad browsing context (for example “coder energy”) without reading what you type. AI features are optional.
