Our founder, Jessica Karcz, was busy trying to change the world through non-profits in Washington, D.C.🌎, when a four-legged tornado named Buddy came crashing in. 🐾💥 Becoming a dog mom was everything—pure joy, endless cuddles, and, well… absolute mayhem. Potty training disasters, surprise vet bills, and one too many chewed-up shoes (RIP, favorite heels 😭)—turns out, raising a pup was way harder (and pricier) than expected.
Friends wanted to help, but the gifts? Adorable, but not always what a new pet parent actually needs. Pee pads? Yes. That 12th stuffed toy? Maybe not. That’s when it hit her—why wasn’t there a registry for pets, just like for weddings and babies? 🤔
Determined to fix it, Jessica got to work. She dreamed up a space where pet parents could easily curate must-haves, share wishlists with family and friends, and discover the best products personalized to their pet’s breed, lifestyle, and quirks (yes, even that cat who only drinks from the sink). 🚀
Enter Pup List—the first-ever pet gift registry and curated shopping experience built for modern pet parents, launched in 2024. 🎉 Whether you’re celebrating a birthday, gotcha day, or just because your dog is the bestest boy/girl, Pup List makes it effortless to find the perfect gifts, get custom breed specific & lifestyle product recommendations, and even compare grooming, vet, and insurance options.
But we’re not stopping at gifting—we’re here to shake up pet shopping furever. 🔥 With smart, breed-specific curation and a Pup Care tool coming soon, Pup List is taking pet parenthood to the next level.
So whether your pup is a sock-stealing troublemaker or your cat has VIP taste, we’ve got them covered. 🐕🐈
