The company plans to launch a new line of pet products called "Best in Show" for PetSmart by May 2015.
Stewart already markets "Martha Stewart Pets" for PetSmart. The line includes cat and dog beds, grooming supplies, clothing and other items.
She didn't provide further details on Best in Show, except to say there's plenty of opportunity in the pet market.
"Everyone wants to spend money on pets," Stewart said.
