How One Dog Started It All

Our Family Story
Our story—like all the best ones—starts with love.
Not just between two people, but between a girl and her dog, Dean, a warm and affectionate Samoyed who unknowingly brought two people together.
We met thanks to Dean. My husband (then just a classmate) worked for a promotion company. One day, he called to ask if he could take a photo of me and Dean for a dog food campaign. Naturally, I said yes. He came over... and let’s just say the camera never came out. We spent hours talking, laughing, and discovering how much we had in common. That day marked the beginning of something special.
Three years later, Dean stood proudly at our wedding. A year after that, we moved to Italy for school, where Dean became a big brother to Baci—our fluffy Volpino Italiano, a charming and spirited Italian breed. Together, we traveled the world with our dogs before settling in the U.S.
​
Since then, our family has grown. We now have three amazing two-legged children and two four-legged ones (plus two hermit crabs and a crawfish—yes, really!). Dean has since crossed the rainbow bridge, after a life full of adventure and love. We miss him deeply, but his legacy lives on in everything we do.
​
Today, Baci and our newest pup, Rolo-Puff Schadmi, help us welcome furry guests into our home with tail wags and joy. Our home is full—of kids, pets, and a whole lot of love. We created this daycare and boarding service because we genuinely love animals and believe in treating every pet like family.
