Skiptown

Skiptown (formerly Skipper) is a tech-enabled hub for dogs and their people. The trusted pet services company provides pet parents with first-class dog walking, daycare, and boarding services, as well as a membership-based dog park and bar – all powered by the Skiptown mobile app. Skiptown has secured thousands of members since opening the first location in Charlotte, NC in August of 2020. Skiptown offers an indoor/outdoor turfed dog park, a bar for humans, dog daycare, overnight boarding, a grooming salon, and dog walking services. From valet daycare drop-off to "Skippers" who monitor the pups at play, Skiptown's dog-focused design and high-end hangout is about giving peace of mind to pet parents and joy to their four-legged family members. Skiptown's proprietary technology platform streamlines booking and account management, sends multiple daily visit reports, pairs dogs to playgroups based on personality type, and allows for a fully customized experience for every dog. Backed by private investors and high-profile venture capital firms, including Techstars Ventures, Bull Creek Capital, and Firebrand Ventures, Skiptown is poised for growth. Founded in 2016 and headquartered in Charlotte, N.C., Skiptown is expanding into new markets soon! Learn more about how Skiptown is revolutionizing the pet parent experience at skiptown.io

Petfolk

We’re Petfolk. And we’re reshaping pet care as we know it. Founded and led by vets, Petfolk understands what it takes to provide world-class veterinary care. When too often the veterinary experience falls short, we’re here to make it better for everyone: pets, their parents, and vets alike. Our goal is to integrate everything pets and their parents need in their journey — from scheduled on-site care to virtual visits. We believe the easier it is for the parent, the healthier and happier the pet. On a deeper level, we see ourselves as part of a greater community of people with pets. We share the same values all devoted pet parents do, and we understand the bond between pets and their owners inherently. Most important, our support is as much for you as it is for your pet. We believe that with the right tools and knowledge, you’re empowered to make the best decisions possible for them. It’s a journey, and we’ll always be by your side for it.
