A calm place for your pet

Your pet deserves peace when you leave

Stilla detects when your pet is anxious, plays scientifically-backed calming sounds, and keeps you updated — all from a spare phone.

On-device AI. End-to-end encrypted. Audio never leaves the phone.

76% of dogs experience separation anxiety.

When you leave, your pet doesn't understand why. The barking, the whining, the pacing — it's not bad behavior. It's anxiety. And it happens every single time you close the door.

They're not being difficult. They're scared. And they can't tell you about it.

Detects anxiety

Warm Noise, Brown Noise

Masks triggering sounds like traffic and doorbells

Binaural / Theta

Theta 50 BPM

50-60 BPM aligns with canine resting heart rate

Your voice is the most effective sound

Peek in, anytime

Tap to see your pet. 60 seconds of encrypted live video, on demand. Extend for one more minute if you need it. The camera only activates when you ask — a visible indicator on the companion phone shows when it's active.

  • Live video — see your pet in real time
  • Hear the room — mute or unmute with a tap
  • End-to-end encrypted — never recorded

Questions

Why does Stilla need two phones?
One phone stays home to listen and soothe your pet. The other goes with you so you can check in. No cameras to buy, no cloud subscriptions, no special hardware — just two phones and a calm presence for your pet.
Does Stilla record my home?
No. The microphone listens for specific distress patterns — not conversations. The camera only activates when you manually tap Peek, for 60 seconds at a time. Video is end-to-end encrypted and never stored.
Can I use an old phone as the companion?
Yes — any iPhone running iOS 17 or later works. A retired phone sitting on a shelf makes a perfect companion device.
What if my pet isn't anxious?
Stilla quietly monitors in the background and does nothing. No sounds play unless distress is detected. You'll see "Resting" on your dashboard — that's the best outcome.
What sounds does Stilla play?
Nine calming sounds across six categories, all backed by veterinary research: classical piano, nature sounds, white noise, binaural theta, soft reggae, and your own recorded voice. Sounds rotate to prevent habituation.
Is my data private?
Completely. Audio analysis runs on-device. Video is end-to-end encrypted. Voice recordings stay on the phone. We don't sell data. Period.
Can I use Stilla with multiple pets?
Yes — unlimited pets per account. Each gets their own profile, sound preferences, and timeline.
What if I cancel?
The trial is truly free for 7 days, and you can cancel anytime with no charge.

Your pet is waiting.
