About the role

Nom Nom delivers delight to your dog’s day. We’re driven by a deep love for dogs and a commitment to their well-being, and are guided by a simple yet powerful philosophy: to provide pups with meals that mirror the devotion, attention, and care that they give us.

Our variety of real good, feel good meals burst with vibrant ingredients and tasty textures. They’re prepared, portioned, and packaged in our very own kitchens, and personalized all the way down to the calorie to meet the unique needs of every dog we serve.
