Write for Us Pets: Pets Blog Guest Post Guidelines

Yes, pets guest posts are accepted on this blog. The ideal writer is a vet, groomer, trainer, pet business owner or pet brand marketer who has real experience with the animals and people they write about. We decline product round ups written for affiliate clicks, and posts written only to promote one brand.

Pet content online is mostly listicles and cute photos. What this blog wants is real experience: how a pet business grew, what a trainer learned from hundreds of dogs, or what helped an owner, told by someone who has done the work.

My readers run small businesses and personal brands, and many of them are pet owners or run pet businesses. They want practical, trustworthy advice and business lessons, so a pets post has to come from real experience, not a shopping list.

60-second pets guest post check

A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:

Have you worked with the animals or run the business you describe
Do you have a real example or result
Does your opening answer the reader's question straight away
Have you said when an owner should see a vet

Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

What we publish

How a grooming, walking or training business found its first regular clients
A training or care approach that worked, with a real case
Content that grew a pet brand's audience, with the numbers
An honest look at a pet product or routine over months

Product round ups written for affiliate clicks
Promotion of one brand, food or product line

What you get

Your article in front of an engaged audience of business owners, marketers and founders
One relevant, contextual link back to your own site
A byline and the credibility of an established, high-traffic blog

How to submit

Send your pitch or draft through the contact form. Include the topic, the one specific problem the post solves, and a line on your first-hand experience with it. One idea per pitch works best. You will hear back on whether it is a fit before you write the full draft.

What a strong pets pitch looks like

A weak pitch says "I want to write about the best toys for your dog." A strong one says "Our dog walking business went from five to thirty regular clients in one neighbourhood by posting walk photos to a local group every day, so I want to show the post format and how we turned comments into bookings." One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.

Frequently asked questions

Does Lilach Bullock accept pets guest posts?

Yes. Pets guest posts are welcome from a vet, groomer, trainer, pet business owner or pet brand marketers and similar writers who have done the work and can share what happened. We publish practical articles with real examples and decline product round ups written for affiliate clicks.

What pets topics do you accept?

We accept growing a pet business, training and care from real cases, pet brand marketing, honest product and routine reviews, local marketing for pet services, and working with pet owners. The common thread is a specific lesson with a result attached, not a general overview of pets.

Can I include a link back to my own site?

One contextual link back to your own site is fine when it is relevant and helps the reader. Posts written purely to build a backlink with no real value are not published.

Do you accept previously published content?

No. Every submission must be original and not published anywhere else first, including your own blog, Medium, LinkedIn, or a guest slot on another site under a different name. Republished or lightly reworded content gets declined, and we check before it goes live.

How do I submit a pets guest post?

Send your pitch through the contact form with the topic, the specific result or lesson you will cover, and a line on your own experience doing the work you are writing about. One idea per pitch works best, and you will hear back before writing a full draft.

Do you accept sponsored or commercial partnerships?

Commercial and partnership enquiries are handled separately from editorial guest posts. If you are a brand or agency wanting to work together rather than pitch an article, say so in the contact form and you will get the right details back.

How long should a pets guest post be?

There is no fixed word count, but posts that do well here usually run from 1,000 to 1,800 words. Long enough to show the example and the numbers, short enough that a busy owner finishes it. Cut anything that repeats what the reader already knows.

What makes a pets pitch stand out?

A real result in the first sentence. Say what you did, what changed and over what period, then say what the reader will be able to copy. For example: Our dog walking business went from five to thirty regular clients in one neighbourhood by posting walk photos to a local group every day, so I want to show the post format and how we turned comments into bookings.
