Company FunNTail is a UK peer-to-peer pet care marketplace connecting pet owners with trusted, vetted local sitters for dog walking, drop-in visits, and daily check-ins. Built entirely by a solo technical founder — two Flutter apps live on iOS at the moment, real-time chat, Stripe Connect payments, shift-based scheduling, photo check-ins, and a full review system. We launch June 29th with users already waiting. The Role Co-Founder — Business & Growth (Equity, Full-Time) The product is built and live. We need the other half of the company: someone who owns growth, partnerships, and operations with the same intensity the platform was built with. This is a ground-floor opportunity to co-own something real that already works. You'll own: Sitter and owner acquisition — on the ground, in Facebook groups, at community events, everywhere Partnerships with vet clinics, groomers, pet shops, and local pet businesses Growth marketing and brand building across social and digital channels Representing FunNTail at pitch events, press opportunities, and community outreach Business strategy and commercial decisions as a true co-founder, not an employee What We're Looking For Proven experience in sales, growth marketing, or operations — ideally in a startup or marketplace Self-starter who thrives without a playbook and moves fast Strong communicator who can sell the FunNTail vision to sitters, owners, partners, and eventually investors Understanding of marketplace or consumer app businesses, or a hunger to learn fast Based in the UK Genuinely loves animals — this matters Compensation Equity: 20–30% depending on experience, 4-year vesting with a 1-year cliff. No fixed salary at this stage — this is an early bet on something already built and launching now.
