The background

Pets4Homes was founded by the lovely couple Mark and Stacey, based in Blackburn in 2008. The site was founded as a hobby project by the two animal fanatics.

From a very early stage, both breeders and consumers took note of the founders’ high standards when it came to animal welfare – the two worked around the clock to try to ensure that only reputable and serious breeders had access.

By 2015, Pets4Homes had grown into the largest online destination for breeders and those looking for a furry friend.

In late 2019, PetMediaGroup acquired Pets4Homes from Mark and Stacey, with the promise that we would do everything in our power to continue their vision of becoming the safest place to a lifelong friendship between pets and their caregivers.
