Everything your pet needs, in one place.

Pets are the best helps UK pet owners find the right providers for pet insurance, pet food, pet-friendly holidays, vet care, dog walkers and sitters, kennels and catteries, grooming, toys and pet portraits, then go straight to their site for a price. It’s free to use.

Why use Pets are the best?

Looking after a pet means a lot of decisions: which insurer, which food, who’ll walk the dog while you’re at work, where they’ll stay when you’re away. We put the options in one place so you can compare UK providers, then go straight to their site for a price.

Run by pet owners

We’re Graham and Maggie, and our rescue dog Ted is our Chief Pet Officer. We brought him home from Cyprus in 2024, and he’s the reason this site exists. Read Ted’s story or follow Ted on Instagram.
