I am a contributor who has been writing for BuzzFeed Shopping for over two years with an emphasis on home goods, parenting items and toys, beauty products, and anything that can make your day-to-day life run a little smoother. Promising reviews: "Both our dog and cat love them! Circling the kitchen like sharks lol." —Michaela "My dog and cats love these! I like that they are single-ingredient. Easy to break apart. Size of pieces varies somewhat due to breakage, but overall, a great treat I can give all of my pets without all of the fillers." —Sally Love Promising reviews: "Both my small dog and two cats love it. Love the taste, and I put it on top of my Maltese's dry food, and she loves it." —Amazon Customer "Never thought in my life I would have four pets—two indoor female dogs and one indoor female cat. Also, one outdoor male cat. They all love this product." —Patricia Elizarraras Get a 7-pack from Amazon for $14.99 (also available in 20- and 49-packs). *And* it comes with five lil' fruity cushions. Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Paws. Promising reviews: "I was afraid this purchase was going to be more for me than for my cats, but I couldn't help how cute it is and decided to try it out anyway. The cats love it! They love to play with the fruit (especially the kiwi and orange) and even with the bed itself! Would totally purchase this again!" —Amazon Customer "I bought this tart for my angel dog because he sleeps at my feet while I’m at my desk during the day, and I wanted him to have a cute, soft surface that would fit under the desk. The first photo is my 4-year-old cat, who has NEVER taken to a bed, ever! She stole it from the dog and claimed it as her own, and we had to buy another one. Dog loves it, cats love it, it’s ADORABLE, just buy it! We got the large, which (barely) fits our chonky cat but is plenty spacious enough for our 5 lb dog." —Jennifer Cordero Rodriguez Promising reviews: "I opened the bed, put the cover on it, and set it aside to let it fully expand. Once I pulled it out, my dogs love it! It's soft and feels pretty comfortable to the touch. The color is rich, it's thick, and it holds its shape. Quality and value in this dog bed, not to mention a favorite in the house!" —Dianna "My large cat LOVES this bed! This bed has seen daily use for nearly a year, and my 15-pound boy loves it just as much as he did on day one. I put a pet blanket over it because his claws were tearing up the cover, and it’s a perfect solution. It’s also convenient for keeping the bed clean because it’s easy to swap out a dirty blanket for a fresh one. My only regret is not getting this bed sooner!" —W.W. Get it from Amazon for $46.99+ (available in nine sizes and 18 styles). Read our full review of this candle here. Promising review: "I don’t usually get overly excited with candles, but I love this candle! I have two dogs and two cats. No matter what I do, the house always has a telltale scent. I lit this candle and could tell a noticeable difference within 15 minutes, and no cheap, waxy candle odor! I’m definitely ordering more!" —Lynda Gale Get it from Amazon for $23.99+ (available in 12 scents; check out all the scents here). Promising review: "Highly recommend!! I have four cats and a wiener dog in the house, and one of my cats is a half Maine coon with very long hair that’s like rolling sagebrush in the desert. And as he walks through the house, you can just see the hair falling off him because he sheds 24/7. This thing absolutely picks up every hair on my hardwood floors, furniture, and area rugs. Definitely well worth every penny!!!!" —Amazon Customer See it in action on TikTok, where the reviewer uses it to clean dog fur off their car's upholstery. Promising review: "I have a cat and dog who like to sleep on a fleece blanket. Before washing it, I would use a lint roller and vacuum cleaner to remove as much fur as I could, but I couldn’t remove it all. Now, with this remover, I used the finest teeth and scraped away all of the embedded fur. I’m very impressed and would highly recommend it." —Wendy N Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in eight colors). Promising reviews: "This glove is amazing! We have two Golden Retrievers, and hair is EVERYWHERE. I use this on the couch, chairs, bed, clothing, you name it! So easy for kids to use as well and so satisfying to see all the collected hair." —Koryn Franson "I have two white long-haired cats, so cleaning hair from clothes is a must. This hair removal glove does it much more quickly than a regular roller. It works on most fabrics—I only have problems with rough ones. One of my cats likes being brushed with this glove. It doesn’t work as a grooming brush, of course, but he enjoys it and purrs." —Evgeniia Vorozhbit Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in two colors and a 2-pack). Promising reviews: "I am so happy with this product! I have a small dog with digestive issues, and she leaves us 'gifts' from both ends. These pads eliminate the need to get down on my hands and knees to scrub! I love that. There is no residue left behind, just a fresh-smelling clean spot. I have yet to see any of the spots reappear, which also makes me very happy! I've also used these pads to remove yellow mustard stains from a white carpet! I highly recommend this product!" —D. Gilles "We have many cats, and this is, hands down, the best product we have ever used. So simple to use, you literally open the package, put it on the soiled area, step on it, and then pick it up 24 hours later. The area is clean, with no signs of stains, and smells pleasant. I've used it on fresh stains and older stains, and it works just as well on both. This product has saved so much time and cleaning effort that I'll be recommending it to all my friends and family. Already purchased a second case to have on hand." —Mina Get it from Amazon for $27.49 for a 20-pack (also available in a 40-pack). Promising reviews: "Got this for my 2-year-old Bernedoodle for Christmas (yes, I buy my dogs Christmas presents 😂). Anyway, my dog is very particular about his toys, and he LOVES this thing. Hasn’t put it down since I gave it to him. It flips and flops every time he touches it. He prances around the house with it flopping in his mouth all day long; he’s very proud of his catch." —Melissa Odsather "My cat absolutely loves this toy. He carries it around and loves to attack it. Easy to recharge, and it has a light to tell you when the battery is full. Definitely would recommend." —alaina Get it from Amazon for $9.98 (available in two different fish). Promising review: "Pet odors can be a persistent challenge, but the Angry Orange Pet Odor Eliminator takes on the task with remarkable success. Its ability to eliminate odors rather than just masking them is a testament to its effectiveness. For pet owners seeking a reliable and powerful solution to keep their homes odor-free, this product offers a game-changing answer. The convenience of a citrus deodorizer that targets even the toughest smells is a true blessing for those who share their lives with furry companions." —bratton423 Get it from Amazon for $17.96+ (available in two sizes and three scents). Promising reviews: "Love these wipes for our Pomeranian. We use them to wipe our dog down after his playdates and to clean his paws after returning from our walks. Doesn’t really have a strong scent, so it doesn’t linger on our dog. The wipes are sturdy and big enough for our needs. These were recommended by our groomer, and we are pleased with the product." —Average Amazon Customer "I love these wipes. They are sustainable and have a light scent. They make my cat’s coat very shiny and clean. His private bits are also much fresher. He always feels a lot better after we use them. One thing I love about the packaging is that the sticker closes over and over without losing its stickiness, so air doesn’t ruin the wipes. It’s easy to keep them like new - wet and ready to use." —Angela P. Get a 100-pack from Amazon for $13.99+ (available in four sizes and green tea leaf–scented or unscented). Promising reviews: "WOW!!!! I was skeptical when I ordered this, too good to be true, right? But it works, and it works really well! I removed a bunch of undercoat from my dog!! Great price! Easy to use and didn’t hurt my dog at all. Can’t say enough good about this brush!!! Buy it!!" —Kimberly Lagasse "This is the best tool I have ever bought for my pets! I have had many cats and a couple of dogs over the past 60 years. I’ve never even been close to getting the loose hair out as this does. I was in absolute amazement at the amount of hair that came off my long-haired Siamese cat. She loved it, too! I can already tell there will be fewer hairballs thrown up! Yay!" —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $15.99+ (available in five colors). Promising reviews: "Works great and looks nice. The fabric is easy to clean and machine-washable. My couch is gray leather, and the off-white color is great." —Gina H "Comfy and pretty. My dog and cat love them, as do I." —mountaingirl Get it from Amazon for $24.28+ (available in 16 sizes and 13 colors). Promising reviews: "The Floppy Dawg elevated bed was very easy to put together. I like that I can just hose it down if it gets dirty. It's perfect for the summer. My cat immediately jumped on it when I was done putting it together. She loves napping on her new bed." —vonnie "I bought this elevated dog bed for my spoiled Shih Tzus. I wasn’t sure they'd like it, but boy, was I wrong! The second I put this on my patio, they all ran into it, and I couldn’t get them out! I actually bought a second one to put outside because they enjoy it so much! The first one I bought was a couple of years ago, and it’s still going strong. It is very well made and durable, and easily rinsed off. I can highly recommend this product." —Trish Davidian Get it from Amazon for $39.95+ (available in two sizes). Promising reviews: "I've got one of those dogs who doesn't like his nails touched, and he's got a devoted owner who tried clipping his nails and cut one too short, so that was traumatic for both of us! My dog gets horribly car sick, and taking him anywhere in the car creates so much angst, but he has to have those nails trimmed. The groomer suggested this product, which she actually has and uses on her own dogs, and urged me to buy it and give it a try." —jazziejay5 "My cat did well with this. I let him see it and check it out before I turned it on. I brought it close to him slowly so he could hear it. It’s not loud, but different. Grind slowly so it doesn’t get hot, or grind too far down. I let him pull his foot away and then tried again slowly. Someone else held him the first time. After the two front paws were done, I gave him a couple of cat treats. He only gets treats when I trim his nails. It will take time. I will no longer use nail cutters after reading how it hurts them when the nail is crushed." —Dee Get it from Amazon for $19.97+ (available in six colors). Promising reviews: "I get super stressed about cutting nails because I don't want to hurt my dog. We had a pair of clippers that twisted the nail between the blades, and just made me sweat when trying to clip the nails. After seeing these clippers often ranked among the top 1–3 on many review sites and seeing that they were used at my local PetSmart grooming department, I felt confident ordering them. I was not disappointed. They easily cut my dog's nails, and the guard made me feel safe that I wasn't cutting too much. I actually enjoyed the experience for the first time. I highly recommend it." —Tim T. - IMTIMIT "My two cats hate being groomed, but this speeds it up a little and cuts their murder mitts down so they won’t kill me. The clipper is of very good quality, and I’m not worried about it breaking. It is really easy to clean, the color is good, and it’s comfortable in my hand." —Amelia. Get them from Amazon for $11.69+ (available in two sizes). You should still brush your pet's teeth per your vet's instructions, but this helps keep that pesky, persistent tartar away. Promising reviews: "I bought this foam about two weeks ago, wishing to remove some minor tartar on a few of my dog’s teeth. I used one pump on each side of her mouth every day. She had no stomach issues and liked the taste! It was fast and easy, and with consistent praise, she got used to it quickly. After 2 weeks, all teeth are practically tartar free, and the stains on her other teeth are fading. I am planning to continue using it daily until all staining and tartar remnants are gone, and then switch to weekly (keeping brushing daily). If you’re conflicted, I’d say go for it! Definitely worked for me and helped avoid much stress for both my dog and me." —Eastons "I’ve been using this for my dogs and cats. They don’t seem to mind the taste when it's added to their water. My one dog tends to have very stinky breath, and I have noticed a significant change in it since using this." —Jessica Get it from Amazon for $10.59+ (available in two styles and multipacks). Promising review: "Highly recommend this for any dogs or cats who you have. I use this for both my dogs and my cat to keep their teeth clean and their breath fresh. I sprinkled it over their food, and they ate it without issue. This is just a powder, and I just use a teaspoon that I sprinkle on top of their food." —YnJ Get it from Amazon for $23.69+ (available in two sizes and a two-pack). Promising reviews: "I have always had a problem with my one cat vomiting undigested food. My vet told me she was probably eating too fast. I stumbled upon an ad on Facebook claiming the bowl position was the reason cats were vomiting; bowls resting on the floor put their necks at an odd angle and can cause acid reflux. I’ve used them for about two weeks, and my cat hasn't vomited once! It was almost a daily occurrence prior to purchasing these! I did have to rest their old bowls inside these to get them to eat. But after a few days, I could put the food directly into these bowls, and they did not complain." —kindlefire09-8 "I am loving this bowl! I use it for both my dog and my cat." —jessica Promising reviews: "I've used Tropiclean products before and really liked them. The detangler works great. I have two dachshunds who have really thick hair that gets matted. I spray it on the mats and work it in with my fingers. I try to cut off the top of the mat and then comb out the rest. It's made grooming less time-consuming. No rinsing needed. Smells great too." —Kathy Sue "This is a miracle. I have a Himalayan cat who gives me such a hard time when I try to comb his hair. He gradually develops matted fur, even though I try to keep him as groomed as possible. But there are times when I just can’t wait for the groomer. I sprayed this stuff on him, and slowly, but surely, I was able to get the matted fur to detach from his skin. I know my baby finally feels relieved. And smells so good too!" —Amazon Customer Get it from Amazon for $9.99+ (available in three sizes). Promising reviews: "I use this in winter and summer to protect my doggy’s paw paws. Easy to apply. Bootsy, my doggo, loves having her paw pads massaged with this non-greasy wax protective layer before we head out for our daily walks. Winter or summer. We give it 10 tail wags. 🐾" —Cassi "I love this product. It works wonderfully. I use it on my dogs, cats, and chickens' feet." —Susan Promising reviews: "We take our Chihuahua with us everywhere we go, and during the summer it gets hot out, and this way we can give her water instead of her drinking water from the water bowls that some stores have out. She can get kennel cough from drinking from those bowls." —Dee Chavez "I have bought 3 sets of these for our cats and puppy. We use these when we travel. They have held up well after use. They still open up and collapse well. Love the color assortments. Easy to wash." —TM PHX Get them from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in four sizes and 15 colors). Promising reviews: "Perfect size to carry with you for a long walk or trip to the dog park. Love the reverse feature on the valve to empty any unused water back into the bottle." —Amazon Customer "We are in the car and walks a lot with our cats this is the most perfect thing. Love so much and color matched exactly what I saw on here." —Walter & Winnie Get it from Amazon for $13.98+ (available in two sizes and 12 colors). Promising review: "My fur baby LOVES this for sunny days! Adorable corduroy pink cap that keeps your pet shaded and stylish. Lightweight, breathable, and comfortable with an adjustable fit. Perfect for walks, park days, and photos!" —Adri Get it from Amazon for $11.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and 10 colors). Promising reviews: "This bed is large enough for my 12-pound cat, it's well-made, and looks nice. It's very cozy, and I love that the center cushion is reversible for warm summer days and cold winter days. And NO funky chemical smells. She immediately went in and started kneading the bed cushion (which means she approves)!" —PD "Our mini dachshund loves it! He’s started taking his toys to it for safekeeping. Amazing quality and so soft. I got the large so that my dog can really stretch out on in. It comes vacuum-packed, so I threw it into the dryer for a bit to fluff it back up." —Megan R. Get it from Amazon for $20.99+ (available in three sizes and 13 colors/styles). Promising reviews: "Definitely cooling! My shepherd loves going in his crate to lie on this pad. Easy to fold up and take with us. Lays flat on the floor, which eliminates tripping. There is no odor. Very good quality. We are loving this!" —Amazon Customer If your furry overlord needs a throne for summer naps and judgmental stares, this is it. Bonus points for how dramatically they sprawl on it like a Victorian fainting lady. 10/10, would buy again just to remain in my cat’s good graces." —Deedly Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and five colors/patterns). * These 27 Products Are Designed To Keep Your Pets Entertained * Your Pets Get Hot, Too — Here Are 17 Things To Keep Them Comfortable * Products To Make Summertime With Pets A Little Less Messy * Pet Products You’ll Be Convinced To Buy From The Reviewer Pics Alone BuzzFeed Shopping is service journalism first: our writers and editors spend all day shopping so you don’t have to, vetting products, fact-checking brand claims, and surfacing what actually helps in real life.
