FAQs

What is Pet Expect?

Pet Expect is your all-in-one gift registry for every new pet moment. Think of it like a baby or wedding registry and gift giving guide—but for puppies, kittens, rabbits, birds, reptiles and more. Create a curated wish list of everything your new companion needs, share the link with friends and family, and receive gifts shipped directly to you.

What types of products do you offer?

At Pet Expect, we provide a curated selection of high-quality pet products, including innovative toys designed to stimulate your pet's mind and comfortable bedding to enhance their rest. Our offerings are tailored to meet the diverse needs of pets and their owners.

How It Works

  1. Create your registry – Sign up free and tell us about your new companion.
  2. Add must-have items – Browse our catalog, shop directly from our New Pet Guides, or click the “Add to Registry” button on any retailer’s site.
  3. Share your list – Email, text or post your unique link so friends can purchase gifts for you.
  4. Get essentials delivered – Friends’ purchases ship straight to your door, and you can always order items yourself via the guides.

New Pet Guides

Pet Expect participates in affiliate programs with leading retailers. When you click our links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This affiliate support lets us keep our service free and continually expand our content. 

Our New Pet Guides are your one-stop shop for every type of companion. Each guide includes:

  • Expert checklists for puppies, kittens, rabbits, reptiles—even road trips.
  • Curated product picks (beds, bowls, toys, treats, etc.) with buy-now links—no registry required.

New Pet Guides make it fast and easy to find—and purchase—everything your pet needs.

Our Recommendations

In “Our Recommendations,” you’ll find handpicked, vet-approved products across all pet categories. From orthopedic beds to interactive toys, these curated picks simplify your shopping and ensure you’re choosing quality items your new friend will love.

Is Pet Expect free to use?

Absolutely. You can create and share unlimited registries at no cost. We earn a small affiliate commission when you buy through our links on the enw pet guides section or under the any recommendation sections, which helps us keep Pet Expect free and improve our tools.

What if a gift ships to the wrong address or arrives damaged?

Because purchases are made on the retailer’s site, any return or exchange must go through them. Please refer to the retailer’s return policy or reach out to their support team. 

What if someone wants to buy me something off-list?

That’s perfectly fine! Your registry is a helpful guide, not a requirement. Off-list gifts are always welcome.

Do you really earn money from my purchases?

Yes—Pet Expect participates in affiliate programs with leading retailers. When you click our links and make a purchase, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This affiliate support lets us keep our service free and continually expand our content. 

How can I ensure I choose the right product for my pet?

We recommend considering your pet's specific needs, preferences, and any health considerations. Check out our blogs to help you select the most suitable products for your furry friend.

What is your return and refund policy?

As Pet Expect directs you to third-party retailers, all returns, exchanges, and refunds must be handled directly with the retailer from which you made your purchase. Please refer to the retailer's return policy for specific instructions.

How do I initiate a return or exchange?

To initiate a return or exchange, locate your order confirmation or receipt from the retailer, review their return policy, and follow their instructions for requesting a return or exchange. Typically, items must be in their original packaging and unused.
