Partner with Car Dogs

Good businesses make better car experiences.

We send people to dealerships, shops, agencies and automotive pros who already operate the way we'd want our own family treated — and we publish the standards so you can hold us to them.

Consumer advice stays free — partners pay only when a lead converts.

Who we partner with.

If people ask us for it, we need someone good to send them to.

Dealerships

New and used stores that will quote real out-the-door numbers, answer the same day, and let a buyer take their time.

Sales, trade appraisals, lease and finance

Service providers

Repair shops, tire and brake specialists, detailers, tint and paint protection, glass, body shops.

Repairs, maintenance, cosmetic and protection work

Automotive professionals

Insurance agents, lenders and credit unions, mobile mechanics, inspectors and appraisers.

Coverage, financing, inspections and valuations

Other relevant businesses

Fleet and commercial providers, transport, storage, accessories — plus rescues and shelters on the dog side of the mission.

Specialty needs and community partners

The relationship, stated plainly.

No mystery pricing and no games with lead volume.

  • You only pay when a Car Dogs lead converts — no upfront cost, no per-lead charge, no subscription.
  • Leads are assigned by our staff based on fit and location, not by who bids highest.
  • We don't blast the same person to multiple partners. One introduction, one business.
  • You accept the partner agreement in your portal, and either side can end the relationship.
  • Editorial is independent: partnering never earns a favorable review, ranking or recommendation.

Full detail on how we make money lives in our disclosures.

Partner standards.

Every partner agrees to these before we send a single introduction.

01

They respond like humans

A real reply within one business day. No auto-dialer, no five follow-ups before lunch.

02

No bait pricing

The number they quote you is a number they'll honor. Advertised prices have to be real.

03

Your info stays put

Partners may only contact you about what you asked for. They can't resell or share your details.

04

You can stop it anytime

Tell us or tell them to stop, and contact stops. No hoops.

05

We drop the ones who break it

One pattern of pressure, bait pricing or spam and they're out of the network.

Run a dealership, shop or agency?

If the standards above sound like how you already operate, we'd like to talk. If they don't, we're probably not a fit — and that's fine too.
