Getting started

Three steps to your listing.

Choose your plan

Select Free, Professional or Featured. If you already have a listing, choose it when buying a paid upgrade.

Complete checkout

For a paid plan, sign in and pay first. You do not need to enter business details or upload photos before paying. Free skips payment.

Set up your listing

Use the setup link in your email or My Directory. Add your details and primary photo, then save your listing. Manage additional photos and video afterward, within your plan's limits. Your paid plan attaches automatically; listings require approval.

A few things to know.

Do I have to pay to be listed?

No. A Free account includes one directory listing with your business information, relevant services, a website link and one photo. Professional Directory is available on its own or included with an active Breeder or Kennel account. Featured is a separate visibility upgrade.

Can visitors contact me without an account?

Visitors can see the phone number, email and address you choose to make public in your directory privacy settings. Professional and Featured listings also include an inquiry form.

What happens when paid access expires?

Your approved listing returns to the Free feature set unless another active membership or upgrade still covers it. You do not need to create a replacement Free subscription.

How do photos and video work?

Free listings can display one photo. Professional and Featured allow up to 20 photos and one video. Uploaded videos are reviewed and published by the site team.
