Pet Products Brands Might Send
What's on offer depends on which brands run campaigns, so this list shows the kinds of products that fit the category. Each offer tells you exactly what you'd get before you accept.
Treats and chews
Whether your pet actually eats them, and how long a chew lasts.
Food and food toppers
Ingredients, how your pet took to it and any changes you noticed.
Supplements
How easy they are to give and what you observed over time.
Shampoo and grooming products
Scent, lather and how your pet's coat looked after.
Toys
Engagement and durability, which can be a short story with some pets.
Beds, bowls and leashes
Fit, build quality and how they hold up to daily use.
Litter and cleanup supplies
Odor control, tracking and how easy cleanup is.
Free Dog Food Samples
Dog food is one of the things pet brands may send through SamplePact, along with toppers and treats. If a dog food brand runs a campaign and you've picked Pet as a category, you could be matched based on your age range and state, and the offer will describe the food and who it's meant for so you can decide whether it suits your dog before you accept.
If you do get a dog food offer and decide to switch your dog's food, follow the brand's directions for changing over gradually, and check with your vet first if your dog has a sensitive stomach or a health condition.
Reviews Pet Brands May Ask For
Pet owners want to see how real animals react, so pet brands may ask for a photo or short video of your pet with the product.
Text reviews work well too, as long as you say whether your pet took to it, ignored it or chewed it apart in a day.
Reviews go on the brand's own website only, and never on Amazon, Google or any other store or review site.
How to Write a Useful Pet Review
- Say your pet's species, breed, age and size.
- Say how long you used the product and how your pet reacted.
- For food or treats, mention any sensitivities your pet has.
- For toys and gear, say how it held up.
- Say that you got the product free.
How Matching Works for Free Pet Samples
Pick Pet in step one of the sign-up form, and brands will be able to reach you based on your category, age range, gender and location.
Sign-up doesn't ask what pets you have yet, so read each offer to see what animal and size the product is for, and pass on anything that doesn't suit your pet.
Keep Your Pet Safe
Please follow the brand's feeding and use directions, switch foods gradually if the package says to, and ask your vet before trying supplements or if your pet has health issues.
How Free Pet Samples Work on SamplePact
The deal is the same in every category, so you get a free product and, in return, you post an honest review on time.
Step 1: Sign up and pick your categories
Pet is already selected in the form below, so just add any other categories you'd like, then tell us about yourself and the kinds of reviews you'll write.
Step 2: Get an offer that fits
When a pet brand's campaign matches your profile, we'll email you the product, its regular price, the review format and the deadline.
Step 3: Accept and get it shipped
If you want it, accept the offer and add a card, and the brand ships the product to you at no cost.
Step 4: Post an honest review
Post on the brand's own website before the deadline, in the format they asked for, and mention that it was free. The brand publishes it whether it's good or bad. Your review window starts when the package is delivered.
Plain and upfront
How the Card on File Works
You'll add a card when you accept a product. Once it arrives, you can post your review or send the product back, and either way you're never charged. If you keep it without reviewing, you pay the product's regular price.
Your rating and what you write never affect whether you're charged; the only thing that counts is whether you posted your review, or sent the product back, by the deadline.
No card at sign-up
Signing up is free and doesn't ask for a card. You'll only add one when you accept your first product.
You see the price first
Every offer shows the product's regular price before you accept, and that's the most you'd ever pay if you kept a product without reviewing it.
The money goes to the brand
If you keep a product without reviewing it, the charge goes to the brand that sent it, to pay them back for a product that didn't turn into a review.
Only accept what you can review
If a deadline doesn't work for you, just pass on the offer, because turning one down never costs you a thing.
If you'd rather send it back
If you'd rather not review a product, you can send it back instead. It can come back in any condition as long as you return the whole product, and you pay the return shipping. Ship it with tracking to the return address in your account before your deadline, and you won't be charged once the tracking shows it's on its way.
If a package is late, lost or damaged
Once campaigns start, you'll have a "Report a delivery problem" button in your account, and one tap lets both SamplePact and the brand know. Your review deadline pauses while it's being sorted out, and you're never charged for a package that never arrived.
The full rule is in the draft reviewer terms, which you'll agree to before you accept your first product.

Free Pet Samples FAQ
How do I get free dog food samples?
Sign up and pick Pet as one of your categories, and we'll email you when a dog food brand runs a campaign that fits your profile. Every offer tells you exactly what's included before you decide.
What if my pet won't eat it or play with it?
That's genuinely useful for other pet owners to know, so post an honest review that says so. Brands agree to publish every review, regardless of rating.
Can I get samples for more than one pet?
Each offer is for one product, so if it suits one of your pets, accept it and say which pet tried it in your review.
Are pet food samples full size?
That depends on the brand, but each offer shows exactly what you'll get and its regular price before you accept.
Is free product testing really free?
It really is. The product and its shipping cost you nothing, and there's no fee to join. The only time you'd ever pay is if you accept a product and then keep it without posting your review or sending it back by the deadline, in which case you'd pay the product's regular price and that money goes to the brand that sent it. Your rating and what you write never affect whether you're charged; the only thing that counts is whether you posted your review, or sent the product back, by the deadline. Taxes may apply to products you receive, and the reviewer terms explain more.
Do I have to give a good review?
Not at all, so just write what you actually think. Brands agree to publish every review regardless of rating, and no brand can ask you for a certain star rating.
When would I be charged?
Only if you accept a product and keep it without posting your review or sending it back by the deadline, in which case you're charged the product's regular price. Your rating and what you write never affect whether you're charged; the only thing that counts is whether you posted your review, or sent the product back, by the deadline.
Who can sign up?
Anyone who's 18 or older with a US shipping address can join. Sign-up asks for your ZIP code and state so brands know where they'd be shipping.
