Who We Are
CritterVillage was founded by pet lovers for pet lovers. Our editorial team researches and reviews hundreds of pet products, so you don't have to waste time or money on things that don't work.
We rely on reputable sources like the American Kennel Club (AKC), the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), and trusted pet organizations to back up our recommendations. Every guide we publish is thoroughly researched and fact-checked to ensure you're getting accurate, helpful information.

Our Mission
At CritterVillage, our mission is simple: make caring for your pets easier, safer, and more enjoyable. We believe every pet deserves the best, but finding quality products shouldn't require hours of research or trial and error. That's where we come in.
Research
We dig deep into product specs, customer reviews, and expert opinions to bring you comprehensive comparisons.
Test
Whenever possible, we test products with our own pets to provide real-world insights.
Recommend
We only recommend products we'd use for our own pets, backed by data and experience.
How We Make Money
CritterVillage is supported through affiliate commissions. When you click on a product link and make a purchase on Amazon, we may earn a small commission at no extra cost to you. This helps us keep the site running and continue providing free, helpful content.
Important: Our affiliate relationships never influence our recommendations. We choose products based on quality, value, and customer satisfaction - not commission rates.
Our Editorial Standards
- Independence: We maintain editorial independence from manufacturers and retailers.
- Accuracy: We fact-check our content and update it regularly.
- Transparency: We clearly disclose our affiliate relationships.
- Humility: We're not vets - we always recommend consulting professionals for medical concerns.
