Our story & team
Our mission is to help people find their perfect puppy and the love that comes with it.
Our story
PuppySpot is America's leading puppy placement service, operating since 2005 and headquartered in Jersey City, New Jersey. For over two decades, we have set the industry standard for online enabled puppy placements, partnering with responsible breeders, and utilizing the right people, processes, and technologies to help thousands of families find their perfect puppy.
We have been in business for over 20 years.
As a USDA-licensed puppy placement service, PuppySpot operates with a singular mission: to make lives better by placing healthy puppies into happy homes. We approach this responsibility with care and integrity – accepting fewer than 10% of breeders who apply to join our network. Every breeder is held to the same standards we would expect for our own families. Guided by an independent scientific advisory board, we require breeders listing puppies on the platform to adhere to the most rigorous screening processes and the most thorough puppy health assessment in the industry.
We stand behind every puppy we place. Every placement is backed by our industry-leading 10-year Health Committment, offering families reassurance long after their puppy arrives home.
At our core, PuppySpot is a community of dog lovers. We combine deep expertise with genuine empathy, delivering not just puppies, but lifelong companionship. We believe every family deserves the joy, comfort, and unconditional love that only the right puppy can bring—and we are honored to help make those connections possible.
