Local pet-friendly business owners, pet services providers, and pet-friendly housing communities can all participate on MyPetsWelcome. To list your business page, first create or claim your Business Page that displays basic information about your business or services. If you offer goods or services (dog walking, pet sitting, etc.) you will need official business documents to verify your Business Page in order to post messages to your neighborhood newsfeed. If you do not have these business documents, you can promote your services from your member account using alternative platform options. More to come…

MyPetsWelcome is the perfect place for businesses to connect with their most loyal, engaged clients in the neighborhood – pet parents. Share special offers and events to help connect directly with local pet parents. MyPetsWelcome is everything you need to build your local pet-inclusive reputation. Claim or create a Business Page and start sharing your pet-friendly message by posting, promoting and advertising hyper-local pet-centric content to the most loyal customers in your neighborhood – pet parents.
