Sydney, New South Wales, Australia Lyka Pet Food Full time

Lyka is an Australian founded pet wellness company that's shaking up an outdated industry and paving the way for happier, healthier pets.

Sadly, statistics have shown us that approximately eighty percent of pets are suffering from dental disease, with one in every three being diagnosed with cancer, and forty-one percent overweight.

As humans we are acutely aware of the positive impact fresh wholefoods can have on our health and wellbeing, however the same hasn't always been said for our furry friends.

We're on a mission to change that, starting with nutritionally balanced, wholefood meals delivered direct to doors around Australia. As the world's most sustainable pet wellness company, we're putting pets and our planet first.


Today, we are proud to share we've served and fed over 10 million meals to puppers and their parents across Australia, and this is just the beginning.

Our vision is to create multiple nutritional products, adding disease prevention meals and supplements, and take Lyka into new markets.

Currently, we have a team of 140 pet-obsessed people on our team who share our vision.

These carefully selected people are dedicated to building the next generation of technology and products to help empower pet parents to take control over their pet's wellbeing.

To date, we have raised over $40m in funding from our venture fund investments and pet industry insiders, who believe in our mission and ability to drive change in an outdated industry, providing nutrition that nourishes puppers from the inside out.

Are you ready to shake things up and give pets the life they deserve? Come join your people.
