About RentACoop
RentACoop is a rapidly growing small business with roots on a working farm in Germantown, Maryland. As we continue to expand, both nationally and globally, across multiple product lines and sales channels, we remain grounded in the values that shaped our founding: innovation, integrity, and a deep respect for animals and their caregivers.
Our mission is to design and manufacture practical, high-quality solutions that simplify and enhance the experience of raising chickens, birds, and small animals. From hands-on product development to daily operations, our team is united by a shared passion for creating tools that are both functional and accessible.
We are proud to lead with purpose across our expanding family of brands:
- RAC Paws by RentACoop – focused on enriching the lives of small animals and their caregivers
- Fluffy Layers by RentACoop – a lifestyle brand for animal lovers, offering thoughtfully designed gear from coop to kitchen
Our growth is driven not just by what we build—but by why we build it. We believe that raising animals, especially chickens, can be a transformative experience for individuals, families, and communities. That belief fuels our long-standing commitment to giving back. To date, we’ve contributed more than $200,000 in products and financial support to public schools, 4-H clubs, camps, Habitat for Humanity, The Salvation Army, and other community organizations across the United States.
As we scale our operations and deepen our impact, we’re seeking mission-aligned team members who are excited to grow with us, while helping us stay true to the core values that have made RentACoop a leader in animal care innovation.
