About us
Who We Are
PetU began not with a business plan, but with a living room full of crates, a heart full of dogs, and a moment of truth.
On Christmas Eve 2011, Angela Trzcinski — founder of PetU — found herself surrounded by dogs in need of training, support, and safety. That night, overwhelmed yet inspired, she asked a simple question: “Are we really going to do this?”The answer was yes.
In 2012, PetU was born — a woman-owned, community-rooted business built to serve families and their dogs with compassion, structure, and education. From day one, Angela’s goal wasn’t just to care for dogs, but to empower their owners with knowledge, confidence, and lifelong partnership.
Today, PetU stands as a place where pets and people grow together. More than a dog school or daycare, we are a supportive community — one rooted in kindness, trust, and a shared love for the animals we call family.

comes first — Always has, Always will.


Our Impact
Since opening our doors, PetU has served thousands of families across Wisconsin through our three locations in Mequon, Milwaukee, and Racine. We’ve built a team of passionate experts who believe that every dog — and every owner — deserves high-quality, respectful, and personalized care.
We are proud to be:
A woman-owned business
WBE, DBE, and HUBZone certified
A trusted partner of veterinarians, rescues, and pet professionals
A steady source of local employment and education
From shy puppies to senior rescues, PetU has helped dogs find confidence, balance, and joy — and helped their humans feel capable, supported, and proud of their progress. Every tail wag, every happy reunion, every successful training session is a part of our ongoing legacy.
Mission & Promise
At PetU, our mission is simple:
To provide a one-stop destination for pet parents who want the very best for their dogs.
We promise to deliver:
Training that builds connection, not control
Daycare that offers true enrichment, not just supervision
Boarding that feels safe, clean, and comforting
Grooming that prioritizes health, trust, and low-stress care
We believe that every dog is unique, and every family deserves support tailored to their journey. That’s why we don’t just work with pets — we partner with people. Through compassionate care and continued education, we help you feel confident, capable, and connected every step of the way.
