Portfolio Operations

We own and operate
what we build.

Wake Robin Group owns and operates Woof Gang Bakery & Grooming locations across Long Island, New York. We handle hiring, daily operations, customer experience, and new location development — directly, not through a management layer.


Our Brand Partner

Woof Gang Bakery & Grooming is a premium pet grooming and retail franchise serving dogs and their owners. Known for high-touch service, boutique retail, and a loyal customer base built on consistent, caring experiences.

We operate three Long Island locations — managing everything from groomer scheduling and customer service standards to inventory, compliance, and new-location development.

How We Operate

We manage each location directly. No management company in between — just an experienced operator who is reachable, present, and accountable for the outcome.

Hiring & Team Development

We recruit, train, and develop groomers, bathers, and retail staff across all three locations. Our standards are consistent; our culture is location-specific.

Daily Operations

Scheduling, appointment management, inventory, vendor relationships, and compliance — handled with systems we've built and refined over three openings.

Customer Experience

We set service standards and hold them. Every grooming appointment is a trust relationship. We take that seriously at every location, every day.

New Location Development

Site selection, lease negotiation, build-out management, pre-opening staffing, and grand opening execution — we've done this three times and built the playbook as we went.
