About Steve’s Real Food

At Steve’s Real Food, we believe that pets deserve real, wholesome nutrition—just like nature intended. That’s why we created the first commercially available raw pet food in the United States. Since 1998, we’ve been leading the way in raw feeding, making it easier, safer, and more accessible for pet parents to give their dogs and cats a diet rooted in nature.

Back when raw feeding was still a fringe concept, our founder Steve Brown set out to change the industry. He knew that pets were thriving on raw diets and wanted to bring that same vitality to more animals—without the hassle of DIY prep. His mission was simple: create a nutritionally complete, easy-to-feed raw food that pet parents could trust. And that’s exactly what we’ve done ever since.

Raw Food Made Simple

Feeding raw shouldn’t be complicated. We’ve taken the guesswork out of it by offering a complete and balanced diet that meets AAFCO standards for dogs and cats. Our recipes are made with whole, clean ingredients to support your pet’s health from nose to tail.

Whether you choose our frozen raw or freeze-dried options, you can count on convenient formats, real nutrition, and zero artificial junk.

Nutrition You Can Trust

Steve’s Real Food is:

  • Made in the USA using humanely raised, pasture-fed meats and wild-caught fish

  • Free from grains, fillers, synthetic vitamins, antibiotics, and hormones

  • Backed by science and formulated to support real, noticeable benefits—like improved digestion, healthier skin and coat, stronger immunity, and better energy

We conduct rigorous pathogen and quality testing on every batch to ensure safety without compromising the integrity of the raw nutrients your pet needs.

Pioneers in Sustainability

As early leaders in the raw food space, we’ve always believed that feeding your pet well shouldn’t come at the cost of the planet. We go beyond nutrition with a full-circle approach to sustainability:

  • Ingredients from local farms using regenerative agriculture

  • A manufacturing facility in Oregon, a leader in renewable energy

  • Packaging that’s recyclable and Interseroh-accredited

  • A proud partnership with 4ocean to help remove plastic waste from our oceans

We were built on the idea of doing better—for pets, for people, and for the planet.
