CHANGE THE WORLD ONE DOG AT A TIME
WHO WE ARE
FOUNDED
IN 2016
The idea for The Global Dog started in 2016 when our Founder, Laurie, adopted a rescue, a former street dog, from Thailand, named Fanta. While completing her MBA at Duke, she decided to build a social app that would allow dog lovers to find everything they needed in one consumer-centric app – from finding adoptable dogs to dog-friendly businesses, vets, parks, restaurants, and hotels. Read more about The Global Dog’s origin story in an interview with Techli here.

OUR MISSION
Global Dog’s mission is to build a socially responsible community and marketplace with the goal of enacting change and giving back to dog welfare causes around the world. With millions of dogs outside our door suffering from abuse, neglect, and a lack of pet welfare, Global Dog connects dog owners to dog-related causes which they can directly impact with their contributions and purchases. We proudly donate 20% of all our proceeds to causes committed to improving dog welfare and adoption globally. Join the pack today and give back to our four-legged friends that need it the most.

IMPACT
PetCFO was founded on the idea that there is a better way to help businesses with their financial, accounting, tax, and bookkeeping challenges. We help owners think strategically about their financial picture and outlook. Accounting and tax are only part of the solution. Accurate financial reporting can help lead to better decision making. We help reduce the operational burden for owners who want to focus on their product or service.
PetCFO specializes in working with pet startups and veterinarian-owned businesses to help them thrive financially. We are more than just tax-compliance focused accountants. We work with businesses of all sizes to expand financial capabilities at all points throughout the year. We seek long-term partnerships where we can help our clients think strategically about profitability, growth, and return on investment. Our services cover accounting, tax, reporting, finance, and decision analysis. Unlike most CPAs and accounting firms, we do more than simply prepare your taxes.
