Default format cells when containing specified text

I am trying to "conditionally format" cells different colors when they
contain certain words (e.g., if text contains 'dog' then cell color is
yellow; if text contains 'cat' then cell color is red).

I am not looking for EXACT text match before condition formatting is applied.
