About SweetPets

SweetPets grew out of a question every pet owner has asked at some point: "Is what my dog (or my cat) is doing normal?"

If you share your home with a pet, you know the feeling. Your pet stops eating, pees in the wrong spot, meows all night, barks at everything, throws up after dinner. The question hits you right away, and the answer is rarely easy to find: it either comes in confusing jargon or buried in opinions that contradict each other.

Here, the idea is different: clear, well-organized, practical answers to the everyday problems dog and cat owners face.

What you'll find here

• Behavior explainers: why your dog does this, why your cat does that, and what to do about it.
• Feeding guides: what's safe, what's not, and how to switch foods without upsetting your pet's stomach.
• Everyday health guidance: warning signs, when you can monitor at home, and when it's time to see the vet.
• Step-by-step training and routines, like potty training or helping your pet get used to being home alone.

How our content is made

Every article starts with a real question. Before we write, we look at what pet owners are actually asking, in search results and in conversations about dogs and cats, so we can answer exactly what people want to know.

Our articles are written with the help of AI tools and reviewed by a person before they're published. For health topics, we take extra care: the text follows the guidance most widely accepted by veterinarians and always says when it's time to see one. Articles are updated when new information comes up or when a reader points out something we can improve.

SweetPets is published by the SweetPets Team. Articles are available in several languages, translated from the original Portuguese, so the same care can reach pet owners in many countries.

What SweetPets is not

SweetPets is not a clinic and does not replace a visit to the vet. No article here offers a diagnosis or recommends medication. When a topic involves your pet's health, the text helps you understand what may be going on and decide on your next step, and it always tells you when to see a veterinarian.

If your pet has a serious problem, or you're not sure whether it's an emergency, contact your vet or an emergency animal hospital.
