My Process

How PawPicks works

Hours of research so you don't have to spend evenings lost on Amazon.

1

Deep Research

I analyse hundreds of verified buyer reviews, ingredient labels, and spec sheets. No shortcuts — every article starts from scratch.

2

Honest Comparison

I rank by real criteria — ingredient quality, durability, value, and how actual owners rate them after months of real use.

3

You Decide

You get a clear verdict with honest pros and cons. Click through to Amazon — always at the same price you'd pay directly.

Behind the reviews

Hi, I'm Sana

"If I wouldn't buy it for Teddy, I won't recommend it to you."

I'm a dog mum based in Haarlem, Netherlands, and the person behind every review on PawPicks. I started this site after spending way too many evenings lost on Amazon trying to find products that were actually good for my Golden Retriever Teddy — not just well-marketed.

No brand deals. No inflated ratings. No sponsored posts. Just honest research from someone who genuinely cares about getting it right for your pet.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

No. PawPicks has zero brand partnerships and zero sponsored content. The only money I make is a small affiliate commission when you buy through one of my links — at no extra cost to you. This keeps my reviews fully independent.
Never. You pay exactly the same price whether you click my link or go directly to Amazon. I earn a small commission from the retailer — it comes out of their margin, not yours.
I focus on products people actually search for — everyday essentials, not luxury items. Each review starts with hundreds of verified customer reviews, ingredient or spec analysis, and price tracking. No product gets a recommendation just because it's popular.
I update articles regularly when prices change significantly, new products come to market, or I find better information. Each article shows its last updated date so you always know how fresh the research is.
Start with the basics: food, a collar or harness, a bed or crate, and a water bowl. Browse my articles page and filter by Dogs or Cats — everything is written to be easy to understand, even if it's your first pet.
