About us

We both grew up in the UK around dogs and got to fully appreciate how dogs can really bring joy and enrich lives.

So as two dog lovers now living in Australia, we were both recently looking to add a furry friend to our own families, but we found navigating the world of dog ownership a little overwhelming.

Information was often scattered and sometimes hard to find, but it was also varying in quality. The idea for PuppyPal came from that frustration - we wanted a stress-free convenient place for information and guidance, but also a trusted place for realistic and honest budget advice. That would mean easy access to information on the right dog, but also the best available ongoing care, training and insurance available - recommendations that really match people’s lives.

So we believe well informed, responsible ownership means Happy dogs. We want PuppyPal to be a convenient place you can really trust.
