Tailwise is an early stage startup with a big ambitious goal to
revolutionise the way people buy and manage their dogs. We believe that
all dogs deserve long, healthy lives in loving homes and we are working
hard to make it a reality.
We are building a state of the art platform for dog buyers to find
and buy their perfect pet. We support dog owners as they go about
raising their new dog and give registered dog breeders and rescues an
easy way to verify and manage their customers. We’re also working hard
to put an end to inhumane and unethical puppy farming.
We're excited about building a diverse, unique and talented team of fellow dog lovers and would love you to join the team!
Tailwise is a young tech startup looking to grow quickly, if you
love dogs this is a huge opportunity to get in on the ground floor,
joining two founders who have both come from successful venture-backed
startups and are experts in their respective fields.
