At Paul’s Custom Pet Food, our team embodies our vision. As a pet food manufacturer, we prepare fresh food for companion animals in an open concept, restaurant-style kitchen and operate much like any restaurant—prepping ingredients, cooking, cleaning dishes, and maintaining a tidy workspace. Yet, our true passion lies in fostering a positive and unified team culture. Staying true to our purpose, mission, and core values is essential to us. We are committed to making a positive impact on everyone we interact with—our team, our customers, our vendors, and our community.
