Amy Reed

Co-owner and Co-Founder of Woofie’s

Ms. Reed is from Columbus, Ohio and graduated in 1994 from the University of Notre Dame with a degree in Sociology. Her background includes decades of experience in sales, marketing and training in technology and telecom companies.

After working in Silicon Valley during the dot.com days and achieving success as the Director of Marketing for OmniTrust Security Systems, she took a leap of faith to leave the corporate world, pursue her passion for working with pets, and start her own business with her neighbor, Leslie Barron. Recognizing a need for reliable pet care in her own neighborhood sparked the idea of launching Woofie’s in 2004.

15 years later, Woofie’s is an award-winning, multi-million dollar company offering a variety of services, including pet sitting, dog walking, mobile pet spa grooming, and Pet CPR/First Aid certifications. Amy created Woofie’s Pet Ventures, LLC in 2018 and spearheaded the company’s expansion efforts into franchising. In February 2019, Woofie’s awarded two franchises in Reston-Herndon and Leesburg.
