Fresh, made-to-order dog food

You know your dog best. We just do the shopping and cooking.

Fresh, made-to-order food for the one who waits by the door. You choose what goes in the bowl and how much — a full meal, a topper for their kibble, or a little something for a big day. We source it fresh, cook it clean, and bring it over.

Start with ingredients you can name

Choose from fresh proteins, produce, and add-ons. We source, weigh, and prep every ingredient by hand in our Michigan kitchen. Browse every ingredient →

Cooked the way you choose

Roasted, boiled, or split between the two — you choose how your bowl is cooked, and we make it to order.

Your bowl, down to the gram

You choose every ingredient and exactly how much goes in — from protein and produce to the finishing touches. Herbs & spices are on us, up to 10g each.

Freshness, without preservatives

We deep-freeze each bowl the day it’s made — the cold does the preserving, keeping it fresh for up to a month.

One thaw. Then dinner.

Thaw in the fridge and use within 3 days. Want it to last longer? Bag portions separately when it arrives, freeze them, and thaw only what you need.

Sized for your pup

Each stop on the slider is one of our product sizes — choose the one that suits your pup.

Petit Paw™ · 40 g
Made fresh for one dog. Yours.

Just an example — your dog’s bowl is built from the ingredients and gram amounts you choose.

Our mission

Dogs love with everything they have.
Their food should love them back.

They wait by the door. They forgive in seconds. They love without keeping score, every single day of their lives. Our mission is to return that devotion the one way every dog understands — a warm, honest bowl, made just for them.

Not pet food. Food — never boxed into breakfast, dinner, or topper. A bowl is whatever your pup needs it to be, decided by the person who knows them best: you. It's the least we owe the most loving souls we know.

Really see your dog

They are more than a breed, a weight and an age.

Most dog food starts the same way. Age, breed, weight, activity level — answer four questions and something on the other end decides which recipe your dog gets. It’s tidy, it’s fast, and it can be useful. It also means very different dogs end up in the same few buckets.

Juno
Won’t touch breakfast until noon. Then eats like it’s her last meal.
Bear
Sensitive stomach. Three things agree with him and he knows all three.
Pepper
Would trade the whole bowl for one blueberry. Has tried.
Ollie
Eats anything, politely, then supervises the kitchen for hours.
Recipe B
Adult · Medium · Active
Four dogs. One recipe. This is the part we could never get comfortable with.

The person who knows your dog isn’t an algorithm. It’s whoever is standing in the kitchen at six in the morning, being watched.

They have different tastes, routines, quirks, sensitivities, favorite foods and stubborn opinions — and you already know all of it. We’re not trying to replace what you know about your dog. We’re trying to give you a way to use it.

There is no algorithm. We don’t ask your dog’s age. We don’t ask their activity level. Nothing here calculates a portion for you or assigns your dog a recipe. You slide the bowl to the size you want and you fill it — that’s the whole mechanism. See every ingredient we carry.

What we make

Fresh food, built by you, cooked by us.

Pups Takeout Kitchen is a small kitchen in Michigan that cooks fresh, whole-food meals for dogs — real food, made with the same care you'd put into it yourself.

You pick the ingredients and the amounts. We handle the shopping, the cooking, the portioning, and the delivery — so dinner is something you both get to look forward to.

And what it is, is up to you: some pups get it as their whole meal, some get it spooned over their usual food as a topper, some only on gotcha days — and for the big ones there's dog birthday catering. Same kitchen, same care — the size slider goes from a spoonful to a feast.

  • Real, whole ingredients — everything's right there on the label (see the full list)
  • You choose every ingredient and exactly how much goes in
  • Cooked fresh to order and delivered to your door
  • Food made to be the best part of their day
Built in the colors dogs see

Even our palette is for them.

Dogs see the world in blues and golds — not the reds and greens we do. So we built our whole look from the colors that actually light up their world. Tap “Dog's eyes” in the menu and watch the whole site shift to how your dog sees it.

How it works

You choose. We cook. We deliver.
