A new, dog-friendly coworking space is open in the ultra-spacious former location of Grandma's House on South Broadway.
Why it matters: HomeDog caters to Denver dog owners who want to be productive without leaving their pups behind.
By the numbers: Roughly 45% of Denver households have dogs, per HomeDog's estimates, and about 22% of workers in metro Denver are remote, U.S. Census Bureau figures show.
What they're saying: "When I was working for a tech company, I would either sit at home all day with [my dog Narly] and just get bored — or I would go to a coffee shop and feel bad that he was sitting at home," founder Alex Novik tells Axios Denver.
- HomeDog, he says, is meant "to solve that problem."
How it works: Membership is available in three tiers, with prices ranging from $95 to $195 per month.
- All tiers get you unlimited access to the indoor coworking area and a sprawling 6,000-square-foot patio.
- Higher-tier perks include private meeting booths, onsite doggy daycare and discounts at the forthcoming bar and coffee shop.
Yes, but: Walk-ins are welcome with a $25 day pass, Novik tells us.
What's next: A full-service coffee bar and taproom with beer and wine are coming soon, he says.
