About us

Pet care, reported like it matters.

The Pet Times is an independent publication covering the health, behavior, and daily life of the animals we live with — held to the standard of a newsroom, not a pet blog.

Every pet owner has been there: a symptom at midnight, conflicting advice from six browser tabs, and no way to tell the careful sources from the content mills.

We started The Pet Times to be the source you can trust in that moment. Our guidance is written by working journalists and reviewed by practicing veterinarians and credentialed trainers, so the difference between an anecdote and evidence is never left to the reader to sort out.

We cover the whole life of a pet — the first anxious week home, the training plateaus, the food-label confusion, the 3 a.m. emergencies, and the small daily joys in between. And when we recommend a product, we buy it, use it, and tell you the truth, with no affiliate fog clouding the verdict.

What we stand for

Evidence over anecdote

Every health claim is checked against current veterinary science and reviewed by a credentialed expert before it runs.

Honest recommendations

We test the gear ourselves and disclose every affiliate relationship. A verdict is never for sale.

The animal comes first

When a popular trend is bad for pets, we say so — even when it's the thing everyone wants to hear is fine.

The people behind it

Written by journalists, reviewed by vets.

Our stories carry two names for a reason: a reporter who does the digging, and an expert who checks the facts.
