I believe dogs are more than pets; they are life companions, adventure partners, and great for our mental and physical health. Sharing life with them should be joyful and effortless.

A few years ago, I decided to chase my dream of building a brand that solves real problems, looks good, and fits our lifestyle. When I got my dog, Arlo, I struggled to find pet products designed with our needs in mind. That's why I created Frances: a brand for people like you and me who appreciate well-made products that make sharing life with your dog easier and even more enjoyable.

The first product I'm launching is the PlayWalk™ bag. I've designed it to be worn while out with our dogs—from playtime and fun adventures to running errands. I wanted to create something that made getting out easier, looked good, and most importantly, provided a real solution to our needs.

After years of design, testing and development, I'm very happy PlayWalk™ is here. Some of the thoughtful details our patented design features include: a dedicated ball pocket, reducing the need for single-use plastic bags to store our dogs' balls; two poop bag holders with discreet dispensers on either side, so whether you’re a righty or a lefty, pulling out a bag is effortless; a roomy, easy-access treat pouch; and high-quality, durable materials like our performance recycled nylon.

Every step of this journey has been fueled by my passion for dogs and their people. I hope that shines through when you wear the PlayWalk™ bag and that it becomes something you love and wear for years to come.

Thanks for supporting this dream of mine.

Love,
Mariana and Arlo
