Affiliate Disclosure
We believe in full transparency. Here is exactly how our affiliate partnerships work and how we earn commissions.
In accordance with the FTC's guidelines (16 CFR Part 255) and international advertising standards, Pet Owners & Animal Lovers (pet.giftstribe.com) provides this full affiliate disclosure to ensure complete transparency with our readers.
An affiliate link is a special tracking URL that tells the retailer or service provider that a customer was referred by our website. When you click an affiliate link on our site and make a purchase, we receive a small commission from the retailer — at absolutely no additional cost to you. In fact, you sometimes get a discount through our links.
Pet Owners & Animal Lovers participates in the following affiliate programs:
- Amazon Associates Program — We earn from qualifying purchases made through Amazon links on our site
- Chewy Affiliate Program — Pet food, supplies, and accessories
- Commission Junction (CJ) — Various pet brands and retailers
- ShareASale — Various pet product merchants
- Impact — Various pet and lifestyle brands
- Direct brand partnerships — Occasionally we work directly with pet brands
This list may not be exhaustive. Any time we link to a product or service that could result in compensation, we consider it an affiliate relationship and disclose it accordingly.
Our affiliate relationships never influence our editorial content, product recommendations, or reviews. Here is our commitment to you:
- We only recommend products we genuinely believe in and would recommend to a friend
- We provide honest reviews, including negative aspects of products where relevant
- We never accept payment to write positive reviews — our opinions are always our own
- We disclose affiliate relationships clearly on every page where they appear
- We refuse partnerships with brands whose products do not meet our quality standards
