Pet Brands Looking For UGC Creators

If you’re looking to start your week off strong, we’ve compiled some incredible brands actively looking for UGC creators for paid content. Now, pre-warning here and I’m gonna dish out some harsh truths.

 

Just because they have budget for paid content, does not mean they have budget for you.


Before you grab the emails of all ten and fire off generic pitches, make sure you can deliver content that fits the brand (for the love of god, if you don’t have a dog, don’t apply to the dog brand).

1. Chippin

Chippin is a brand that specialises in pet nutrition, namely dog food and dog treats. Their products are powered by planet-friendly proteins, and they are developed in collaboration with veterinarians to ensure the best possible nutrition for dogs. Basically, good food for your pup.

The company’s focus is on providing all-natural, eco-friendly proteins for dogs — think ingredients like wild-caught silver carp fish, human-grade cricket, and vegan spirulina. These ingredients are sustainably sourced, and the recipes are designed to be gut-healthy and hypoallergenic, making them suitable for dogs with allergies.

✅ What To Pitch: Chippin emphasises the importance of reducing the environmental impact of pet food consumption and promotes conscious sourcing of ingredients to contribute to a healthier future for both dogs and the planet. They highlight the eco-pawprint, so pitch with angles around this. 

 

❌ What They Are Not Looking For: Cats, believe it or not.

3. GO! Solutions

GO! SOLUTIONS is a company that specializes in crafting premium dog and cat food recipes. Their philosophy is centered around providing tailored recipes that are designed to meet the unique dietary needs of pets, helping them look and feel their best.

The company offers a range of dog and cat recipes that are formulated by pet nutrition experts. These recipes cater to various dietary requirements, including grain and gluten-free options, limited ingredient recipes, and high-protein formulations. The focus is on addressing allergies, sensitivities, and health issues that pets may have.

They are part of the Petcurean family, a company known for its dedication to providing nutritious and wholesome pet food options (and their healthy budgets).

What To Pitch: The selling point of GO! is the ability to address allergies, sensitive and health issues. Pitch a hook of a cat/dog with intolerances, how does this make the pet owner feel? 

What They Are Not Looking For: Generic aesthetic content.

4. Embark

Embark is a company that offers dog DNA testing services. Their mission is to help dog owners understand their furry best friends on a whole new level by providing incredible insights into their dog’s unique appearance, behavior, and health through DNA testing.

Embark provides a range of dog DNA tests, including:

  1. Breed ID DNA Test: This test helps identify a dog’s breed mix with a breakdown of ancestry, allowing owners to discover what makes their dog unique in terms of breed composition.
  2. Health and Wellness DNA Test: This test provides genetic screenings and microbiome testing, enabling dog owners to make smarter decisions about their dog’s care and well-being.
  3. Gut Health Test: This test is designed to diagnose and resolve digestive issues by assessing the dog’s gut microbiome and helping to bring it back into balance.

Embark emphasizes the use of better science to promote happier dogs. Their DNA testing provides valuable data and insights that can lead to improvements in a dog’s health and lifestyle, including preventive care, dietary adjustments, and other wellness strategies.

✅ What To Pitch: While it’s fun to find out breed backgrounds etc, the crux of the product is that it enhances a dog’s well-being. I’d be looking at hooks around owners who’ve tried every dog food on the market and nothing was working to settle their pups tummy. A gut test was the last resort.

 

❌ What They Are Not Looking For: Aesthetic content

How Much To Charge For Retainer Clients

Before you start counting the $$$$ from the collaborations that haven’t happened yet, know for certain that you can confidently deliver content that can deliver results for the brand.

 

If you’re sure of that, tell them how. Look at the previous UGC content they’ve used, see where it falls short and tell them how you would improve on it when you pitch to them.

 

Good luck and happy pitching!
