Our Story

How We Started

It all began with a simple question: “Why is it so hard to find reliable information about caring for exotic pets?”

Our founder, Sarah, adopted her first hamster, Peanut, and quickly discovered that while there was plenty of information online, most of it was scattered, outdated, or simply wrong. Veterinary visits were expensive, and she wished there was a trustworthy resource she could turn to for guidance.

That frustration sparked a vision — to create a comprehensive, loving, and reliable resource for exotic pet owners everywhere. Today, SmallPets Club is proud to serve thousands of pet parents who, like us, believe that every small pet deserves big love and the best care possible.

“Peanut taught us that great pet care starts with knowledge, compassion, and a community that cares.”

— Sarah, Founder
