Connecting External Review Sources
Link your Google, Yelp, Facebook, Trustpilot, BBB, AKC Marketplace, and Good Dog ratings to your Pet Breeder Hub profile.
Overview

Supported Platforms
- Google Business
- Yelp
- Bing Places
- Trustpilot
- Better Business Bureau (BBB)
- AKC Marketplace
- Good Dog
Linking an External Review Source
- Go to the "Review Sources" tab in your Breeder Dashboard.
- Find the platform you want to link.
- Enter your profile URL on that platform (e.g., your Google Business URL or Yelp business page).
- Click "Save". Our system will fetch your current rating and review count.
- Toggle "Active" to display this source on your public profile.
Understanding the Blended Rating
Your blended rating is a weighted average of your Pet Breeder Hub reviews and all active external sources. This gives pet seekers a single, comprehensive rating that reflects your reputation across all platforms.
The dashboard shows a comparison between your internal (Pet Breeder Hub) rating and your external sources so you can see where your strongest and weakest reviews are.
Managing External Sources
- Update — Ratings are periodically refreshed automatically. You can also manually refresh by saving the source again.
- Deactivate — Toggle a source to "Inactive" to hide it from your public profile without removing the link.
- Remove — Delete the link entirely if you no longer want it connected.
