Our Affiliate Relationship Explained
How Affiliate Links Work
You click a link → redirected to retailer → purchase → retailer pays us commission (no extra cost to you). We don't handle shipping, returns, or customer service. All fulfillment is done by the retailer.
Affiliate Shipping FAQs
Do you charge extra for shipping through your affiliate links?
No, absolutely not. When you purchase through our affiliate links, you pay exactly the same price as if you went directly to the retailer's website. The retailer pays us a commission from their profit, not from your purchase price. Shipping costs are set by the retailer and are the same whether you use our link or go directly to their site.
What if I have shipping or delivery issues?
Since all shipping is handled by the retailer (Amazon, Chewy, PetSmart, etc.), you need to contact their customer service directly for any shipping issues. We recommend:
- Check your order confirmation email for contact information
- Use the retailer's website/app to track your package
- Contact the retailer's customer service if there are issues
- For lost or damaged packages, contact the retailer within their policy timeframe (usually 24-48 hours after delivery)
We can provide guidance on who to contact, but we cannot resolve shipping issues directly.
Which retailer has the fastest shipping?
For fastest overall shipping: Amazon Prime offers 1-2 day delivery on millions of items, with same-day delivery available in select areas.
For fastest pet-specific shipping: Chewy offers 1-3 day delivery on most items with free shipping on orders over $49.
For fastest in-person options: PetSmart offers same-day delivery and in-store pickup in many locations.
Delivery times vary based on your location, product availability, and shipping method selected at checkout.
Can I return items purchased through your links?
Yes, returns are handled directly by the retailer you purchased from. Each retailer has different return policies:
- Amazon: 30-day return window for most items
- Chewy: 365-day return policy, excellent customer service
- PetSmart: 60-day return policy with receipt
- DHGate: Varies by seller, typically 7-30 days
Always check the retailer's return policy before purchasing. Contact the retailer directly for return instructions.
Why do you link to multiple retailers?
We link to multiple retailers to give you options based on:
- Price: Different retailers may have different prices
- Shipping speed: Some prioritize fast delivery
- Product selection: Certain retailers specialize in specific products
- Membership benefits: Prime, Autoship, Treats programs offer different benefits
- Customer preference: Some customers prefer certain retailers
We aim to provide options so you can choose what's best for your needs and budget.
