Explorer vs BarkLife

Explorer is a pet owner panel committed to the well-being of our furry friends. For nearly 10 years, Yummypets has been building a community of loyal and engaged pet owners. Now, through Explorer, the discussion is being taken even further, with pet parents taking surveys to share their opinions and views regarding their daily life as pet parents. Every time you participate in a survey, Explorer will donate a free meal to shelters to support their mission. In addition, Explorer offers you the possibility—chosen by random draw—to win gift cards for e-commerce platforms (Chewy, Amazon etc) to reward you for your time and participation in our surveys. This application is dedicated exclusively to cat and dog parents over the age of 18.
