Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about buying and selling pets on Petmeetly
How does buying a pet through Petmeetly work?
Create an account, tell us what breed and type of pet you're looking for, then browse available listings filtered by price, age, location, and breed. When you find a pet you're interested in, message the seller directly through Petmeetly to ask questions and see additional photos or health records. Once you're ready, arrange a safe in-person meeting to inspect the pet and complete the purchase.
Is Petmeetly free to browse?
Browsing pet listings on Petmeetly is free. Messaging a seller may require an optional Premium membership if the seller is not already a Premium member. Petmeetly does not take a commission on any sale - the price you see on the listing is what you pay the seller directly.
How are sellers verified?
All sellers must verify their contact details before listing a pet, and registered sellers display a badge on their profile. However, we strongly recommend you do your own due diligence: review the seller's listing history, ask to see health certificates and registration papers, insist on an in-person meeting before paying, and avoid any seller who pressures you to wire money before meeting the pet.
What should I ask a seller before buying?
Ask for up-to-date vaccination and deworming records, health clearance or vet check documentation, and registration papers if the pet is pedigreed. Ask to see the pet's parents if available, inquire about temperament and any known health issues, confirm the age and weaning status (for puppies and kittens), and get everything important in writing before you pay.
Does Petmeetly handle the transaction?
No. Petmeetly is a connection platform - the purchase is 100% between you and the seller. We do not hold funds, mediate disputes, or guarantee the health or authenticity of any pet. We strongly recommend meeting in person, paying only after you've inspected the pet, and using a written sales agreement for anything above a nominal amount.
Can I sell my pet on Petmeetly?
Yes. Create a detailed listing with multiple clear photos, breed and age information, your asking price, and any health records or pedigree documentation. Registered buyers will message you directly. You choose who to respond to, who to meet, and ultimately who to sell to - you're in full control of the sale. Listings with complete information and 5+ photos sell significantly faster.
