Our Story

From a simple idea to a mission-driven company dedicated to pet wellness

It Started with Bailey

Our founder, Dr. Sarah Chen, noticed her golden retriever Bailey's health declining despite feeding him "premium" kibble. After switching to fresh, whole foods, Bailey's energy returned, his coat became shiny, and his overall health improved dramatically.

This personal experience sparked the creation of Petico - making fresh, nutritious food accessible to every dog owner.
