Oh Behave!

Marie Moody is the founder of Stella & Chewy’s, the leader in raw and natural pet food. She combined her passion for animals with her entrepreneurial spirit and established the company in 2003 after adopting a sick dog named Chewy. Following her veterinarian’s advice, Marie began feeding Chewy, as well as her other dog Stella, a raw diet and saw their health drastically improve.

From there, Marie decided to pursue pet nutrition and started Stella & Chewy’s in her small Brooklyn kitchen before setting out to grow the brand and bring this natural diet to pet parents across the country. Nearly 20 years later, Stella & Chewy’s is now a company of 500+ employees headquartered in Oak Creek, Wisconsin, and can be found in more than 6,000 neighborhood pet stores across the country, as well as at online retailers.
