About RightPaw

Here at RightPaw, our mission is to help every dog and every owner start off on the right paw.

Founded in April 2020, we are an Australian, VC-backed start-up, building a safer and simpler way to buy your new dog online. We are revolutionising an industry rife with scams, minimal quality standards, and no support - and building the future for responsible pet ownership. One pup at a time.

Our product vision is to create a digital ecosystem to find, buy, and manage your pet.

Built with breeders and vets, we are using health and technology to make the biggest possible impact on the pet industry - improve animal welfare from the very beginning.

“The biggest difference we can make to a dog’s life is at the very beginning.”

— Dr. Imogen Tomlin-Game, Chief Veterinary Officer

RightPaw connects verified, responsible breeders with potential puppy owners, and supports them through the process of buying their new pup. Breeders can use our CRM to manage their applications and identify the best potential homes for their pups.

Our Culture & Core Values

• 🐶 Be a passionate voice for pets. Embedding purpose in our day to day is at the heart of what we do. We want what’s best for humans and animals!
• 🤓 Be curious like a Collie. We are always learning and growing personally and professionally. We like to have a growth mindset and an open mind. Life is more fun when we learn something new everyday.
• 🐕 Be humble like a Hound. Like hounds, we work best as a pack. We value open, honest and transparent feedback - whether it may be within the team internally or with customers externally. We are a humble bunch - there is no room for politics or ego and definitely no such thing as a silly question!
• 💪🏽 Be bold like a Boxer. We give everyone autonomy to make an impact. You are empowered to see your ideas through.
• 🦴 Be tenacious like a Terrier. Like a dog on a bone, we work fast, stay lean and nimble, make data driven decisions and keep things simple.

What it’s really like working at RightPaw

We’re a small but fun, close-knit team so there’s no room for politics and old-fashioned hierarchy. We work autonomously and are self-sufficient.

We like to start our day with a watercooler topic and banter, then look at core business metrics and addressing any blockers in the team at our daily standup. Kudos and sharing of wins happen on a daily basis and every Friday, we have our Town Hall where recognition and shout outs are given out to the team.

We like to be upfront, and are constantly adapting and evolving in the way we work, which is why we expect our team members to be vocal on how we can improve. We pride ourselves in giving the team freedom to shape the future of the technology, product, culture and business.

Life at RightPaw

Starting every day with some banter and watercooler question of the day - "what is your favourite meme?"
