We’ve Updated Our Pet Classified Script – Here’s What’s New and Why It Matters

We recently worked on an update to our Pet Classified Script, and I wanted to share how this project has grown, what changes we’ve made, and how others can use it to start a real business.
This script is designed for anyone who wants to build a pet marketplace or listing site—for pet adoptions, buying/selling pets, or even creating a platform for pet stores or breeders.
What We Built and Why
When we first created this script, the goal was to make it easy for non-technical users or startups to launch a pet listing platform without starting from scratch. We saw that many people, especially local breeders and adoption centers, struggle to go online with a proper website. They either rely on social media or generic classified sites.
So, we built a script that is specific to pet listings, with features that matter to this space—like filters by breed, pet age, type (dog, cat, bird, etc.), and location.
Our Contribution to the Project
We developed this script completely in-house. The core structure is made using:
• HTML5 for clean structure
• SCSS for organized styling
• Bootstrap for responsive layout
• JavaScript for dynamic behavior
• PHP with CodeIgniter as the backend framework
• MySQL for the database
We also focused on making the script SEO-friendly, mobile-responsive, and easy to set up.
This was not just a UI template. We wrote every part of the code to solve real problems—like managing pet listings, building clean URLs for better search ranking, adding contact forms, and designing user-friendly dashboards.
What’s New in the Latest Version
After feedback from users and testing it in real environments, we added the following changes in the new version:
• A better search system with more accurate results
• Cleaner, faster dashboard for both admin and users
• More detailed pet listing pages with image galleries
• Improved mobile layout for small screens
• Added option for location-based filtering
• Optimized backend for faster performance and easier hosting setup
These changes were based on what our users needed. Some were breeders running their own website. Others were agencies helping local pet shops go online.
How You Can Build a Business with This Script
This script is not just for developers. It’s a ready-made business tool.
Here’s how people are using it:

1. Local Pet Marketplace – Start a site where people in your city can buy/sell/adopt pets.
2. Pet Store Website – Offer it to pet shop owners as a prebuilt platform to list animals and take customer inquiries.
3. Adoption Platform – Help NGOs or shelters create an adoption-only site.
4. Earn from Premium Listings – Add plans for pet owners or sellers to promote their listings.
5. Build & Sell Sites – Web developers can use this as a base to build and sell complete websites to pet businesses. Since the script is customizable, developers can also add features like payment gateways, blogs, vet listings, SMS alerts, and more. Final Thoughts We built this script to make things easier for people who want to enter the pet tech space but don’t have the resources to start from zero. We’ve improved it over time, and we’re still open to feedback. If you’re a developer, entrepreneur, or agency working with pet-related businesses, this could save you a lot of time. It’s ready to go and easy to modify. You can check out the live demo or reach out if you want a walkthrough. We’re happy to share more behind-the-scenes details if anyone’s interested in how we structured the backend or managed the UI components.
