Dogs have long been a fixture of Monaco life — spotted in the arms of residents along the port, dining alfresco at terraces, riding the lift in immaculate apartment buildings — but until now, nobody has thought to give them their own club. Onelifestyle, the Monaco-based bespoke lifestyle agency, is changing that with the launch of The Dog Social Club, a new concept dedicated to dogs and their owners in the Principality.

The idea, as co-founder Ornella Petrosino puts it, was fairly straightforward. “We have a lot of demands for our clients’ dogs, so we felt that they too should enjoy some dedicated experiences.” Monaco has no shortage of clubs, social events and curated experiences for its human residents — The Dog Social Club simply extends that logic to the four-legged members of the household.

The launch

The inaugural gathering took place on 7th April at the Hôtel Métropole Monte-Carlo, a venue chosen in part because it is simultaneously unveiling MetroPaw — a new healthy menu designed specifically for dogs. The timing is not a coincidence.

For its first edition, The Dog Social Club offered guests the presence of a Reiki specialist alongside the MetroPaw launch, blending wellness, lifestyle and socialising for both pets and their owners in one sitting.

Future events and membership details are available through Onelifestyle directly.
