About the company:
At Sundays, it's our make life easier on the modern dog parent so that they can spend more quality time with their dog. Started by a veterinarian and a software engineer, Sundays is reinventing food for the modern dog family. Dogs used to sleep in the backyard and eat kibble; today, 2/3 of dogs in the US sleep in their parents' beds, yet 95% still eat heavily-processed kibble or canned food. Dogs have transformed from pets to family members, but dog food hasn't caught up. Sundays is answering the question: what do you feed the dog who sleeps in your bed?
Our DNA is in veterinary medicine and software design, so we're serious about science, technology, and analytics. Ultimately, we make dog food — so we make sure to take the "food" part very seriously, and the "dog" part with the right amount of fun.
