What’s not to love about getting packages in the mail, especially those chock-full of handpicked, quality goodies? There’s something exciting (and novel) about opening your mailbox to find a selection of great products that you may not have been privy to without your monthly subscription. The legwork of seeking out the most interesting, fun, health conscious, and exciting products is eliminated when filled by services like Birchbox, Glossybox, Whimsybox, Knoshbox and Conscious Box (all monthly subscription services for people).

Now, with the following pet-product delivery services, you can extend the monthly excitement you feel when receiving your tailored boxes, to your best buddy, Fido:

1. BarkBox: This NYC based monthly subscription service (often referred to as the “the Birchbox” for dogs) works with several small vendors in and around the New York Area to fill their boxes with carefully selected doggie products and presents- anything from bones and treats to shampoos, leashes and playful new gadgets. Choose the size of your dog (boxes are sized accordingly), choose the plan and begin receiving. Boxes start as low as $19 per month with 10% going towards the support of a rescue group. For more info, or to sign up, click here: www.barkbox.com.

2. Best Friend Box: Based in Sugarland, TX, Best Friend Box will become an immediate favorite for you and your pup. With “All Natural, All Safe, All Fun, All Vet-Approved” products for feline and canine creatures alike, B.F.B. fills each package with 3-6 hand picked treats, toys and/or grooming products. Boxes are $30 per month. For more info, or to sign up, click here: www.bestfriendbox.com.

3. Wag-in-the-Box: A monthly subscription service for dogs and the people who love them! Membership options for less than $24 a month (with a portion of each sale going to a charitable cause). Their tail-wagging team sniffs and digs around to find the coolest treats, chews, toys, and grooming products on the market, and fills each box with a minimum of 4 items per month. For more info, or to sign up, click here: www.waginthebox.com

4. Pawalla: With a wagging tail or a contented purr, happiness arrives in every Pawalla box. Catering to both Cats and Dogs, Pawalla fills each box with a selection of natural or organic goodies & delivers it right to your doorstep. Pet owner’s fill out a “pet profile” so each box caters to the exact needs and tastes of their pet (great for pets with allergies!). For more info, or to sign up, click here: www.pawalla.com.
   

Whether or not you decide to jump on-board the subscription train, the most important thing to remember is to show love and attention to your pet. Oftentimes pets enjoy most a walk with their owner, a game of fetch in the park, or a simple hug and pet… then again, boxes full of goodies don’t hurt either!

What’s your favorite subscription service for your pet?
