About Dogaspet
We're dog owners helping dog owners. Real experience, honest reviews, and veterinary-verified advice you can trust.
Our Mission
Every dog owner faces the same challenge: sifting through countless products, conflicting advice, and overwhelming information to figure out what's actually best for their furry friend. We created Dogaspet because we've been there—standing in the pet store aisle wondering if this food is really better, or scrolling through reviews trying to decide if that crate is worth the money.
Our mission is simple: provide dog owners with honest, practical advice based on real-world experience and backed by veterinary expertise. We test products with our own dogs, research topics thoroughly, and have every health-related article reviewed by licensed veterinarians. No fluff, no sponsored rankings disguised as advice—just the information you actually need.
How We Create Content
Real-World Testing
Our writers test products with their own dogs in everyday situations—not in controlled lab environments. We note what works, what doesn't, and what surprised us.
Thorough Research
We dive deep into product specifications, compare alternatives, read scientific studies, and consult veterinary resources to ensure our recommendations are well-informed.
Veterinary Review
Every article about health, nutrition, or safety is reviewed by a licensed veterinarian to ensure medical accuracy and safety. No health advice goes live without expert approval.
Our Content Standards
- We buy products ourselves or test them with our own dogs—no paid placements in our rankings
- We disclose when we earn affiliate commissions (it doesn't affect our recommendations)
- We regularly update articles when products change or new options become available
- We cite veterinary sources and scientific research when making health-related claims

Our Writers
Tim de Jong
Founder & Chief Editor
Tim de Jong is the founder of Dogaspet and a dedicated dog owner with firsthand experience raising two very different breeds.
His schnauzer taught him patience with the breed's notorious stubbornness and grooming needs, while his fox terrier introduced him to the world of high-energy sporting dogs and their unique training challenges.
For over a decade, Tim has been helping fellow dog owners navigate the real-world challenges of dog care—from finding the right gear that actually works to understanding what products are worth the investment.
His reviews come from hands-on testing with his own dogs, and his advice reflects the practical wisdom of someone who's dealt with everything from separation anxiety to finding furniture that can withstand determined diggers.
