Too bad petscout.com is owned by a holding company

If it were me, i'd go walk around a major pet store and see what names and name combinations stand out as authoritative and stich them together that way.

Dogology.org (Premium) - Not a .com, but .org is highly brandable for businesses as well. It's no longer a non-profit related domain extension like back in the 1990s and early 2000s.

That's all I got for now. Hope it gives you some ideas.

I'm compiling these in a Google Doc.

If a spin off of the name you gave me is what I go with, then you win.

Keep them coming, and thanks for all the suggestions so far. :)

Barkbox.com has BarkPost.com etc. was thinking of something like that.

We've got 130 entries so far. I'm floored at the response! :)

Go with something short and brandable, I don't think it needs keywords. It needs to be something very generic, like wagz.com our something that had mass market appeal. Almost like homeaway.com.

Except something like Wagz I personally would find unacceptable. Very confusing when delivered verbally. The name wouldn't need an explanation afterwards. "That's Wagz with a Z". You should be able to say it without explanation and people still arrive at the right place.

What about trying something like Paula's Pet(any name works, just example)

You could make a character and basically pitch a storyline about Paula, and turn her into the brand of your business.

If your pet goes missing, "Paula will find her". Healthy pet food— Paula Pet, etc...

If messaging is created well, "Paula" becomes this figure in people's mind that won't let anything happen to your pet. Paula knows what's best for your pet, etc...

how about dogbuddy.com or petbuddy.com ? i don't know about you guys but the name strikes me as friendly, it also covers the value it delivers, and it has a good vibe.

Protaro.com - this is short, simple, and brandable. The full biz name could be Protaro Pet Products. It sounds comprehensive, and the 'pro' makes it sound professional. The word 'Pro' is also often used for health supplements and things; protein, probiotics, etc. Domain is available at time of this posting.

www.thepetcaremarket.com (Available and cheap)

www.thepetcareplace.com (Available and cheap)

Just so I'm not lying by omission, here are your uh, competitors, for lack of a better word. Their domain names are similar to the above.

www.petcaremarket.com

www.petcareplace.com

Who knows what you will get when you prefix some of these suggestions with a 'the'... Aside from creating a feeling of exclusivity from the first moment they encounter your site.

Happy hunting.

EDIT:

@JasonR , I'm sure I'm preaching to the choir, but it goes without saying that you should buy the winning domain before you let anyone know what it is, you don't want someone to find out, beat you to it, and haggle with you.
