About Us
Hi! My name is Dayandra and I’m the founder of Good Boy Collective, and these are my two dogs Rupert and Ronnie.
This little shop is my entire heart and soul! To say I’m passionate about it would be an understatement. My whole life I have been a major dog nerd and I hope to share my enthusiasm with all of you! My goal is to inspire happy, healthy relationships with our dogs (and to have fun while we do it).
I opened my shop because I felt that something different was needed in the pet store world - there’s so many fantastic small brands out there doing amazing things, but they were far less represented in stores. I wanted to open a shop that I’d feel good about shopping in for my own dogs - so in 2017 I started our online shop and in 2019 I left my career in fashion to open our retail location.
We carry so many fantastic brands that inspire us every day. Most of the businesses we work with are fellow small businesses or women owned - and at the end of the day, all of us are truly in this for the love and well being of dogs.
We are so grateful for the community we have and we can’t wait to get to know you and your dogs!
