What We Do

Here at Spot & Tango, we are on a mission to make your pet healthier and happier, simplifying your role as a pet parent along the way. Put simply: we exist to create more happy days with your dog.

Since 2018, we’ve been cooking up fresh, whole ingredient meals personalized for dogs at prices humans can afford. We even created an entirely new category with UnKibble, the only Fresh Dry™ food for dogs. That’s how much we believe in the benefits of real food for our loyal companions.

Our recipes are made with only whole vegetables, fruits, grains, and meats that we’d eat too. Plus, every vet-formulated meal plan is delivered directly to your door and completely customized to your dog’s weight, age, activity level, and health goals.

Why Work With Us

At Spot & Tango, we know that we're only as good as our people. We look for candidates who ask the right questions, have an entrepreneurial spirit, and learn at light speed. While we value experience, we also appreciate (and seek out!) fresh perspectives.
