Our Story

Oldfield Pets started with a dog named Hazel.

In 2025, our co-founder Ryan rescued Hazel from a shelter in Philadelphia. She was his first dog, and it didn't take long for her to completely change the way he thought about caring for an animal.

Like so many pet owners, Ryan wanted Hazel to live a long, happy life. That meant paying closer attention to what she was eating, the treats she was getting, the products he was buying for her, and whether they were actually adding something positive to her life.

The more he looked, the more questions he had.

Why did choosing simple, natural products have to feel so complicated? Why was it so difficult to know exactly what you were giving your pet? And why did better options so often come at prices that made them difficult to use every day?

Those conversations eventually became something bigger.

Ryan and his longtime business partner, Yagiz, had already spent years building Hatching Time around one simple idea: people who care deeply about their animals want to give them the best care they can.

Through Hatching Time, they saw that many of the same families raising chickens were also sharing their homes with dogs, cats, and other animals. The animals may be different, but the mindset was very similar: they are part of the family.

The idea began to take shape when Ryan and Yagiz connected with Clayton Payne, whose years of experience in the pet industry brought a deeper understanding of natural pet products, sourcing, vendors, and what pet owners were looking for across the UK, Europe, and the USA.

Together, they saw an opportunity to build a pet company around a simpler standard: products with a clear purpose, ingredients and sourcing they could understand, and products they would feel comfortable giving to the animals in their own homes.

That idea became Oldfield Pets.

Why Oldfield?

The name comes from Oldfield Road in Fairfield, Connecticut - the neighborhood Hazel came to call home.

And because of that, Oldfield represents something more to us than just the name of a company.

It represents home.

Trust.

Second chances.

And the responsibility we take on when an animal becomes part of our family.

Hazel may have helped inspire the beginning of Oldfield Pets, but the company is being built for every pet owner who looks at the animal beside them and simply wants to do right by them.

What We Believe

We believe caring for our pets shouldn't have to be complicated.

That's why we look for straightforward ingredients, thoughtful sourcing, and products that serve a real purpose in a pet's everyday life.

Today, the Oldfield family includes single-ingredient natural treats and chews, wellness supplements for dogs and cats, and enrichment toys designed to keep pets active and engaged.

The products may be different, but the question behind them stays the same:

Would we feel good giving this to our own pets?

Because at the end of the day, that's how Oldfield Pets started.

With one dog. One home. And the desire to give her the best life we could.

Your pet's wellness is our concern.
