History

Back in 2002, our founder, Paul Mann, believed there was a more professional and reliable way to consistently provide loving care to pets than the options that existed at the time. With locations across the United States, Fetch! Pet Care^® has become America's largest and most trusted professional dog walking and pet sitting franchise.

Today's Fetch! Pet Care is the result of 16 years of innovation and evolution driven by our exceptional leadership team and franchisees. It has never been easier to run and to scale a Fetch! Pet Care franchise than it is in today's $70 billion booming pet industry. We've evolved our business model, enhanced our technology systems, and expanded our marketing and support capabilities so that our franchisees can enjoy greater success with their business.

Our visionary leadership team works tirelessly, year after year, to deliver a business model that keeps Fetch! Pet Care franchise owners profitable in their businesses. Our franchisees also market in their local community and work diligently to build strong, long-lasting relationships with their clients and team at a local level.

What truly makes Fetch! Pet Care unique in the franchising world is the fact that our leadership continues to innovate our proven business model, which has helped Fetch! Pet Care succeed through good and bad economic climates.
