Our vision

Through the power of knowledge, nutrition and the right people, we are challenging the status quo, putting dogs first and changing the game.

Nutrition

Nutrition is at the core of health and wellbeing, and we believe that all dogs should have access to real food - this is why Lyka came to be.

Wellness Services

We are invested in all elements of pet health and holistic wellness, including preventative care, early diagnosis, the elimination of overmedication, as well as alternative therapies.

Health Monitoring & Accessories

From the inside to the outside and the technology that our dogs are wearing, we are developing ways to track the health of dogs to improve their wellbeing and enable preventative care.

Life Science & Beyond!

Lyka is at the forefront of pet wellness and nutrition. Through the knowledge of research and data, we are able to bring the advances of life sciences to pets, to improve their longevity and ensure optimal health at all life stages.

Our values

Life is just better with dogs, and we believe they deserve to live their best, healthiest, happiest lives - together, we can do just that. Our four key values dictate every decision made to benefit the Lyka Pack, and we feel proud to be able to bring like-minded, passionate individuals together who embody and live by these values.

Puppers first, always

We go above and beyond to serve pupper parents, and to help improve the health and wellbeing of their pups.

Lead the pack

We are innovative leaders that are changing the game and reshaping the future by breaking new ground and leading by example in everything we do.

Pick up the poo

We never take shortcuts, never make excuses, and always go above and beyond to do the right thing by our puppers, the community, the planet and each other.

All paws welcome

We create a safe space for people to be themselves and contribute their expertise. The magic happens when people from all walks of life come together to make a change, because we're better together.

Puppers first, always

We go above and beyond to serve pupper parents, and to help improve the health and wellbeing of their pups.

“At Lyka, we are challenging the status quo of pet care, and people are at the core of it all. To be the best, we need to hire the best and we are constantly searching for superstars to take on this enormous task.”
