Who We Are

The Farmer’s Dog was created to radically improve the $90 billion global pet food industry — starting with a subscription service that sends freshly-made food directly to customers’ doors. Long term, our aim is to simplify every part of pet care, bettering the lives of the animals who make our lives better. Backed by the early investors of Warby Parker, Dollar Shave Club, and Sweetgreen, we've raised over $100M in funding and seek to build a company as healthy as the dogs we feed.

Join The Farmer’s Dog team as we continue to figure out ways of bringing peace of mind to customers, health to their companions, and much-needed change to the way people feed and care for their pets.

Where You'll Come In

Our new customer acquisition team sits at the front line operating as the first point of contact for prospective customers. The Customer Acquisition Specialist will contact warm leads and use our consultative sales approach to walk them through our initial signup process and educate them on the benefits of feeding fresh food. We're looking for an advocate for our customers –– someone who continuously raises the bar by inventing creative solutions on the fly.
