How Posting Works

1. Choose the right title and category

Write a specific title buyers can trust. Example: Golden Retriever Puppies for Sale. Then select the closest category and breed.

2. Add details buyers care about

Include age, health, vaccinations, temperament, and price. Honest details reduce low-quality inquiries and improve buyer confidence.

3. Set contact and location

Add your preferred contact method, choose your location accurately, and verify all listing information before you publish.

Photo and Listing Tips

  • Use your own clear photos in good lighting.
  • The first image becomes your thumbnail. Avoid text overlays, logos, or stickers.
  • Minimum recommended image size: 400 x 400 px.
  • Keep pricing and availability accurate.
  • Use complete sentences so buyers can quickly understand your listing.

Trust and Safety

We use moderation and automated filters to help reduce spam and suspicious listings. Some ads may be reviewed before publishing.

  • Follow our Ad Guidelines to prevent delays.
  • Do not post duplicate ads for the same pet.
  • Use real photos and accurate location details.

Need More Visibility?

Free listing is always available. If you want additional reach, you can upgrade with optional Featured and Bump packages.

  • Featured ads appear in higher-visibility placements.
  • Bump options help move your listing back to the top of relevant feeds.

Compare packages before choosing an upgrade.
