Jaron & Ana, Co-founders

Yumwoof co-founders Jaron and Ana with their dog Sherlock

Jaron and Ana founded Yumwoof after their own experiences with health and nutrition led them to take a closer look at what they were feeding their dog, Sherlock. They set out to create the food they couldn’t find: recipes inspired by nature and informed by science, with premium proteins, healthy fats, nutrient-dense organ meats and minimal processing.

Today, their commitment remains the same: create food they would proudly feed their own dog every day.
