Find out how she brightens our days, her favorite office perks, and why sheâs earned the title of Chief Pet Officer. Dive into our Q&A to discover the charm of Kirby and her paw-some adventures at The Shop! đśâ¨
1. Whatâs your pupâs name, and is there a story behind it?
Her name is Kirby and the story behind her name is that my Partner Lexi originally named her Phoebe but felt like that didnât fit her personality within the first few days so she pivoted and changed it to Kirby because she liked that name better. People often think sheâs named after the pink Nintendo character but that isnât actually the case.
2. Whatâs their favorite thing about The Shop Workspace?
Kirby loves getting pets from people passing by. We usually try to find a booth so she can lay next to me and is so excited every morning to come to work with me.
3. Any funny or quirky habits theyâve developed while coworking with you?
Kirby likes to rest her head on my lap while I work. This isnât unique to the co-working space though. She loves to cuddle
4. Describe your pupâs ideal workday at The Shop.
Kirbyâs ideal workday would be to come to the office and get some pets from Anne, Jennifer and Mike. She would then love a treat from one of them and it would be ideal if every person that walked past her throughout the day gave her endless attention and pets.
5. If your dog had a job title at The Shop, what would it be?
CPO â Chief Pet Officer â This job ensures that pets are always allocated to Kirby
