History
Established in 1997.
In January of 1997, Jim Campanella officially opened Lawn Dawg in a small office space in Hudson, NH. From 1997 to 2008 they grew to one of the largest privately held lawn care services in the northeast.
In August of 2009 Jim partnered with a private investment group in an effort to grow Lawn Dawg throughout the northeast and beyond. Our core values have remained strong as our customer retention rates are far better than industry average and we have become a recognized leader in environmentally responsible lawn care. Since its inception, Lawn Dawg has grown to 11 branch locations serving over 25,000 residential customers.

Jim C.
Business Owner
As a graduate from Manchester High School in 1982, Jim immediately entered the work force as a lawn care technician for Old Fox Lawn Care in Mass. In 1989 he moved to Portland, ME to open a lawn care branch for Lawnmark. He was promoted to regional manager in 1993 and moved to Albany, N.Y., overseeing operations in upstate NY, Maine and Vermont. In 1995, after Lawnmark was purchased by Barefoot Grass, the company moved Jim to Nashua, N.H., and added Mass. and Connecticut to his existing region. At the end of 1996 Barefoot Grass sold to TruGreen prompting Jim to start Lawn Dawg.
Since 1997 Jim has been very active in the lawn care industry, as well as with charitable organizations. He served as President of the Massachusetts Association of Lawn Care Professionals in 2003, President of PLCAA in 2004, YMCA Director from 2002 – 2004, and President of the Rotary Club of Nashua West in 2006⁄2007. He is currently serving on the NALP board of directors and is a NALP Trailblazer.
