Volunteer Reviewer Program

Licensed US veterinarians and certified animal behaviorists: help us publish pet care content that owners can trust.

What you do

• Review draft KinStation content in your specialty area — encyclopedia entries, first-aid articles, behavioral knowledge.
• Approve, request changes, or decline. You only claim assignments you want; nothing is forced on you.
• Approved content publishes with your byline and credentials (e.g., Dr Jane Smith, DVM (NY License #12345)). You can opt out of a public reviewer profile while still being credited.

What you don't do

• No real-time medical advice.KinStation never forwards user questions to you. The behavioral assistant escalates to "see your vet" when warranted.
• No retainer, no billing. This is volunteer work. Your incentive is recognition, public profile, and contribution to quality pet care information.
• No long-term obligation. You can withdraw signoff on any article at any time and pause reviewing whenever you like.

Who can apply

• Veterinarians: active US DVM license, license number verifiable on a state board portal.
• Behaviorists:CPDT-KA, IAABC, KPA-CTP, or ACAAB credential — verifiable on the issuing organization's registry.

How verification works

1. You submit the application below with your credentials.
2. A KinStation admin manually verifies your license against the relevant state board (or certifying body) before your account moves to verified. Expect 3–5 business days.
3. Once verified, you sign the Volunteer Reviewer Agreement and start claiming assignments matched to your specialties.
