If you’re a pet owner, you’ve probably come across a moment in which you’re shopping online or in-store and you see something that your fur baby just HAS to have.
We’ve been there…a lot.
Now, what if every single one of these purchases also contributed to a greater cause?
Here are five companies making stellar products while aiming to extend pet lives through technology and supporting good causes:
Waggit
With the advent of wearable technology like smartwatches and fitness trackers, it seemed natural to extend that technology to start monitoring your pet’s health.
The Waggit is a smart wearable collar designed to monitor your dog’s important vital updates. With GPS technology and mobile app integration, you can track the resting vitals of your dog and get alerted if anything unusual happens.
By monitoring your pet’s health, the Waggit can help you be more proactive with preventive care by alerting of you of unusual activities.
Sock Problems
With more than just pet care in mind – Sock Problems is partnering with several different charities around the nation to provide fundraising opportunities for good causes.
With several different designs for a variety of charities, Sock Problems pledges to donate anywhere between 25-50% of proceeds of their sock sales to a charity. Their latest partnership? Working with Kaley Cuoco, Brad Goreski, and the Paw Works rescue organization to help provide care to shelter animals in need.
The Honest Kitchen
With a lot of unknowns surrounding the pet food industry, The Honest Kitchen is looking to take away the mystery of pet food and making human-grade meals an easy and affordable option for your pets.
Made with the highest quality standards, The Honest Kitchen has created dehydrated food formulas that are safe even for human consumption. By moving towards the dehydrated route, The Honest Kitchen has been able to provide nutritious meals to pets all around the nation. By feeding your pets higher quality meals, your pets will get the right nutrients they’ll need to live a long and happy life.
West Paw Design
West Paw Design is focused on creating durable and eco-friendly toys and products for your pets. Known for their dog toys for tough chewers, West Paw keeps pups entertained for hours with FDA-approved natural rubber that is 100% recyclable. Not only will the toys give your pets fun mental stimulation to keep them in tip-top shape, but these toys are great for the planet as well.
Made in the USA and guaranteed for a lifetime, West Paw has even created a recycling program to ensure that their products stay green forever.
Fetch Eyewear
If you’re a pet parent in need of fashionable frames or eyewear, either for prescription or just for the sun, Fetch Eyewear is a philanthropic company dedicated to giving 100% of their profits to animal welfare.
Benefitting the Pixie Project, a rescue organization in Oregon that helps provide animal care for low-income families, Fetch Eyewear is dedicated to providing pet parents a way to express themselves through a fashionable option that also benefits an important cause that they believe in.
