Because our pets are family too

Hi, I'm Audra — and I get it

How I remember those golden days of going to the pet store, wandering the aisles looking for that special chew toy for your dog, and the perfect cat toy that would have both of your furry companions gaga for — only to get home, proudly present your finds, and watch the dog spend twenty minutes shredding the package it came in while the cat ignores your pick entirely to chase a stray twist-tie across the kitchen floor.

Then came online pet shopping — thousands of options, endless reviews, leaving us pet parents overwhelmed on what actually works for our pets. This is when PawPicked came to life. The guesswork has been done for you. I've done the searching, the comparing, and a whole lot of testing — so you can skip straight to the good stuff.

"Paw tested, not marketing tested."

But PawPicked isn't just for cats. Gabby (my stepdaughter's dog), an adopted pup who has had something to say about absolutely everything since the day she came home (hence the name), became the voice of the dog side of PawPicked, making sure every pick passes the bark test too. Her sister Coti, who lives with family nearby and visits often, is also part of the testing crew — along with Brenna, a brilliant and athletic dog who contributes to the dog-side testing panel alongside Gabby.

Between the five of them — and with vet-approved guidance along the way — everything on this site has earned its spot.

My goal here as a veteran pet parent is sharing a place where you can shop for that certain, special item with easy browsing, quick checkout, and the top paw-picked needs for your bestie.

Happy Shopping 🐾
