Our Story
IT ALL STARTED WITH A POORLY PUG
6 years ago our Founder’s pug, Fernando, was diagnosed with Syringomyelia [nicknamed neck-scratchers disease], which caused fluid-filled cavities to develop in his spinal cord and dramatically reduced his quality of life. The vet’s recommendation was to try and manage the condition with medication and premium kibble, but the outlook was still bleak.
Â
Like most doting dads, Arunas spent countless nights researching the condition in the hope of finding a better solution to ease Fernando’s symptoms and improve his quality of life. He certainly didn’t set out to create a pet food company.This research led Arunas on a journey to truly appreciate the difference an organic, natural and species appropriate diet can have for dogs [and us!].
At this point, Arunas knew that regardless of Fernando’s diagnosis, he deserved a diet that was free from chemicals, exceptionally nutritious and far easier to digest – which meant a lot less carbohydrates [this ketogenic principle inspiration for the brand name Raw+Keto= Rocketo].
The idea for Rocketo was born.
In its infancy Arunas created each recipe using raw ingredients and saw a dramatic improvement in Fernando’s health in just a few weeks. But he also realised that it simply wasn’t sustainable. Feeding all 3 of his dogs the same diet meant using 60kg of fresh ingredients a month. After much research into the most natural ways to preserve food whilst maintaining all the nutrients and enzymes that made it so healthy, Arunas discovered that dehydration – or gently air-drying – meant you could lock in all the goodness of raw ingredients, but create a product that was completely safe to store in the cupboard.
Â
Fast-forward 6 years and we’re still guided by these very same principles. Our recipes all use the very best organic and wild ingredients, are significantly lower in carbohydrates than any kibbles and nutritionally incomparable.

LOW-IMPACT BUSINESS PRACTICE
From our ethical sourcing to manufacturing and packaging, we always are seeking ways to operate more ethically and sustainably.
All our products are created in organically certified facilities
Â
With the best partners, we ensure every batch of Rocketo is meets the highest industry standards for food safety. Thanks to our air-drying process, even when opened at home you won’t be risking batcerial growth.Â
We only source the highest quality ingredients from suppliers we know and trust
Whether it’s our organic beef, wild-caught fish or even sea kelp from the Irish shore, we can trace back every one of our ingredients. As our products are regularly batch-tested to ensure they continue to meet nutritional standards, we know that our suppliers continue to farm the best ingredients available.Â
THE MOST NUTRITIOUS RAW INGREDIENTS MAKE THE MOST NUTRITIOUS RECIPES, WHICH IS WHY THAT’S ALL WE USE TO MAKE OURS.
Â
Most brands need to add synthetic vitamins and minerals to their recipes to ensure they meet the requirements to be ‘complete’. Why? Because it’s cheaper to do this than it is to use high quality ingredients. We don’t need to add anything extra – the jury is still out on whether dogs will absorb them as well as natural sources, so we don’t take the risk.Â

Â
OUr products weigh 3x less than conventional pet food, but that’s just the start…
Â
Organic farming can have a massive impact on helping improve soil quality, which in turn can store 25% more carbon than non-organic soil. We are constantly striving for the most low-impact ingredients, such as the Black Soldier Fly larvae in our Insects & Fish recipe. All our packaging is either biodegradable or widely 100% recyclable.
