Tjeerd Korse Spokesperson

Co-founder & CEO Amsterdam, NL CET / UTC+1

Tjeerd Korse is co-founder and CEO of Dogfluence. Based in the Netherlands, he started Dogfluence with Tom Klaversma after watching horizontal influencer platforms repeatedly fail dog brands — generic creator pools, no understanding of breed, life stage or behavior, and reporting that treated a Goldendoodle's audience like a beauty audience.

The dog industry — 400+ breeds, four life stages, 8% annual growth — needed its own infrastructure. Today, Dogfluence connects 600+ brands with 7,221+ dogfluencers across 114M+ combined followers, with 200+ new creators joining every month.

Tom Klaversma

Co-founder & CTO Netherlands CET / UTC+1

Tom Klaversma is co-founder and CTO of Dogfluence. He leads the technology behind the matching engine — the 30+ data points per dog, the verification pipeline that keeps the dogfluencer network real, and the campaign reporting brands actually trust.

Tom co-founded Dogfluence with Tjeerd in 2024 on the bet that the dog vertical was big enough, weird enough and underserved enough to deserve infrastructure of its own. Available for technical and platform deep-dives.

Dogfluence launches its newsroom alongside 2026 dog-creator engagement data

Wyoming, USA · May 1, 2026 — Dogfluence, the influencer marketing platform built exclusively for the dog industry, today launched its newsroom at dogfluence.com/press, releasing 2026 industry data showing dog creators driving an average +102.9% engagement uplift across 600+ brand campaigns on the platform.

The platform now connects 600+ dog brands with 7,221+ verified dogfluencers reaching 114M+ combined followers, with 200+ new creators joining per month. Brands include Buddy & Lola, Maven Pet, SW Pet Products, Inaba, BetterBone, Seaweed for Dogs, Blue Pet Co and Pala Petfoods.

“Horizontal creator platforms have been pricing dog campaigns like beauty campaigns for a decade, and the math has never worked. Dog audiences behave differently — they convert on trust, not on aesthetic. Match a French Bulldog brand to a French Bulldog creator and the numbers move.”
— Tjeerd Korse, Co-founder & CEO of Dogfluence

Brands can self-serve onboarding at dogfluence.com; creators apply for verification at dogfluence.com/creators. The newsroom will be the canonical source for Dogfluence press releases, leadership commentary and industry data going forward.

Four rules. That's the page.

Dogfluence logo on dark background
Dogfluence logo on brand color background
Light backgroundDark backgroundBrand color
1

Always "Dogfluence"

One word, capital D. Never "DogFluence" or "Dog Fluence". Our handle is @dogfluence — not @DogFluenceHQ.

2

Don't separate the paw glyph

The paw is part of the wordmark. Don't crop it off, don't use it on its own. We have a dedicated icon for that — it's in the kit.

3

Give the logo room to breathe

At least one logomark-height of clearspace on every side. Yes, even when it's tight. Especially when it's tight.

4

Don't recolor the wordmark

White-on-dark and black-on-light are the only variants beyond the primary. Not blue. Not your-brand-purple. Ours.

Not press? Welcome anyway. Most brand marketers find what they need above.
