We all have that one friend who treats their pet like it’s their child or best friend (or both).

You’d probably figure that a stellar pet parent already has enough stuff for their fur baby, but there's a high chance you're wrong. Pet accessories (things like pet cameras, chew toys, tracking devices, this umbrella-leash contraption(opens in a new tab)) aren’t always cheap, especially the good ones.

If you have one or more pet-obsessed buddies and are struggling to find them a gift for the holidays, their birthday, or just an “I appreciate you” present, we suggest getting them something that will also benefit their animal companion.

Below, we’ve pulled together a group of fantastic gift ideas for the pet owner in your life, and we’re confident you’ll find something here that your recipient will love. Now, go make your fellow pet parent’s day (and their pet’s day, too).

Best for pet parents who want to know more

Giving your dog a DNA test isn't just about learning their breed, type, and variety — the real benefits come when you learn about all the potential health risks that their breed brings with them. And when you know all that information, you can prepare preventative measures with your vet so your furry friend can stay happy and healthy for as long as possible. Embark's tests also let you find and connect with other dogs that share DNA with your pup. Family reunion time?
