BEHIND THE BUSINESS 🌷
We haven’t done one of these in years! And as our business grows, it may be a good idea for you guys to know who’s behind Millie’s Barkery!
My names Leah, I’m 28, and started this business in November 2020 during lockdown, starting off on Etsy as k9krunchies (🤢 what was I thinking). It started as a little hobby, then I got Millie and renamed the business now at just over 10k followers, a lovely bunch of reps, our life saver admin gal (who keeps me in check) and all of our lovely customers.
I worked full time & did Millie’s every night after work & weekends to keep up with orders (which may I add is f**king hard work) then I took the leap and went full time with Millie’s Feb 2023! Since then i had a baby January 2025 and feel so lucky to have my baby full time & work from home with help from my amazing mum having Elsie a few days a week so I can keep up with our orders, my mum also runs and does a smashing job at running her own cake shed & bakes for some lovely businesses in our area!
I’m so so thankful for all our customers who shop small & support us. Millie’s wouldn’t be what it is without you all. Running a small business is HARD. Especially in this day and age.
But it’s all so worth it, knowing what we sell is 3 simple ingredients, protein packed, homemade & good for sensitive tummies with 0 additives of whatever sh*te are in shop bought treats.
Thank you so much for being here, liking our posts (when I remember to post) and sharing Millie’s far and wide! ❤️
