Sleepover Rover, Inc. named Petco Inc.’s Preferred Provider

June 27, 2007

Sleepover Rover Inc, the Phoenix based company that boards dogs utilizing a network of host families, won the Phoenix Chamber of Commerce 2007 Athena Powerlink Award and has just been named the “preferred” dog boarding solution in Arizona by Petco Inc. Unlike their main competitor, Petco does not cage dogs in a warehouse type fashion within their stores. Petco and Sleepover Rover have a great strategic “fit” and this alliance a win for both companies.  Petco is committed to doing what’s best for the pet and Sleepover Rover’s network of certified host families are clearly a better alternative for the family pet than warehouse - type concrete kennels. Sleepover Rover has been avalanched with requests for their service since inception, which offers unparalleled peace of mind to worried pet parents. All certified host families, which are carefully screened by the company, are trusted animal lovers, home full time and provide pet safe yards for their furry houseguests!

The company is enjoying solid repeat business and Founder Maggie Brown reports “once clients try us, they never go back”. The company is privately owned by Maggie Brown and Tina Myers, two over 40 women passionate about dogs and about their cause to making kenneling dogs obsolete.  The company is four months into its Phoenix Chamber of Commerce Athena Powerlink mentorship year and has a team of local business leaders guiding its rapid growth. The Athena mentorship team is very excited about this partnership with Petco and see it as a “natural fit” similar to the Geek Squad’s partnership with Best Buy.
