Our Evaluation Framework
Every treatments we review goes through the same multi-criteria evaluation. No exceptions, no shortcuts.
- Price (30%) — Per-dose cost compared across 5+ online pharmacies. Bulk discount availability.
- Authenticity (20%) — Packaging verification, batch number checks, manufacturer confirmation.
- Shipping Speed (20%) — Processing time, delivery options, Australian warehouse vs international.
- Customer Reviews (15%) — Verified buyer feedback, Trustpilot ratings, repeat customer rates.
- Return Policy (15%) — Refund window, return shipping cost, unopened product policy.
How We Test — The Process
Each review takes 2-4 weeks from start to publication:
- Purchase — Every product is bought at full retail price under a real customer name. We never accept free samples, review units, or brand sponsorships.
- Testing — Minimum 2 weeks of real-world use. For flea tick and worm treatments, this means actual daily use in normal conditions, not lab benchmarks.
- Verification — Key claims are independently checked. Prices verified within 48 hours of publication. Specifications cross-referenced with official documentation.
- Write-up — All criteria scored, weighted, and converted to our rating scale. Published with evidence.
Our Scoring System
9.0-10: Exceptional. Best in class. We'd recommend to family.
8.0-8.9: Excellent. Minor trade-offs but strong overall value.
7.0-7.9: Good. Solid choice but not category-leading.
6.0-6.9: Average. Acceptable but better options exist.
Below 6.0: Not recommended. We explain exactly why.
Based on our weighted scoring, BestVetCare and CanadaPetCare consistently score highest for Australian buyers.
