Animal Ark Pets is a companion series to the main Animal Ark books, written under the Ben M. Baglio pen name by Working Partners. With 27 books published between 1996 and 2003, this series targets younger readers with shorter, simpler stories about children and their household pets.

The titles give a clear picture of what readers will find: Puppy Puzzle, Kitten Crowd, Rabbit Race, Hamster Hotel, and Mouse Magic all focus on common pets that children know and love. Later entries like Hedgehog Home, Frog Friends, and Ferret Fun branch out to more unusual pets. The series provided an accessible entry point for kids who were not quite ready for the longer main Animal Ark books.
