We created Freeads to help people find and rehome pets safely, but its important to be aware when rehoming your pets or advertising pet accessories & services online.
How to stay safe as a breeder:
- Always message through Freeads, photo's and videos can be sent with ease.
- Insist on home visits so you can ask plenty of questions of potential pet parents
- Consider using PetSafe - you don't pay any fees as a breeder and can get instant payouts.
- Don't rehome your pet without receiving full payment.
How to stay safe as an advertiser:
- Keep conversations within Freeads messenger.
- Don't part with items prior to full payment being recieved.
- Always check online payments & ensure they are completed in your accounts.
- If meeting buyers at home or outside, don't go alone, take a friend.
Things to watch out for:
- Strange payment emails or texts, always check your accounts for payments.
- Buyers insisting on meeting away from your home.
- Buyers who don't ask enough questions about your pet.
If something doesn’t feel right, stop and review the situation. You can always report the buyer and get advice before continuing, just use the button below to reach out to our lovely support team.
