I usually describe my life story as “interesting”—it definitely wasn’t boring 🙂

I grew up with a mom who battled her own challenges and struggled to give the kind of care a child needs from a parent. My dad passed when I was only 15, so I had to find ways to support myself and my family.

There are plenty of stories I’d rather forget, but one thing always lit up my days and made me feel loved: Luna, my childhood dog. She truly saved me. No matter how chaotic home felt, waking up to her and coming back to her made everything bearable.

I spent most of my childhood working 15-hour shifts (and later realized that as a business owner, I’m not going to work any less 😅). So I knew I had to build something that—no matter how hard or long the days—would always make me smile.

Seeing photos of your dogs makes me smile the most. Even if I don’t reply personally, I see them all—and they genuinely recharge me for whatever tomorrow brings.

I grew up in a loving home surrounded by dogs. My mom owned a grooming shop in the basement of my childhood home, and I loved helping her and greeting every pup that came in. Growing up with a pug and an English bulldog sparked a real fondness for short-nosed breeds, which eventually led me to my sweet & spunky French bulldog, Enya.

My love for dogs grew from a personal passion into something bigger—I wanted to turn that love into a career where I could bring joy to dogs and their humans.

I’ve loved dogs for as long as I can remember, even though my parents couldn’t allow one growing up due to my asthma. That all changed in the pandemic when Toby, my half-Labrador, joined our family and filled our home with light and joy.

After getting married in 2021, Toby became our first baby, and then in 2022, we welcomed Pandoy, who’s now Toby’s best buddy. Watching them grow together has been one of life’s greatest joys.

Being part of Sniff & Bark lets me channel my passion into meaningful work—helping dogs and their humans live happier, healthier lives every day!

I grew up in a big family surrounded by dogs, but they were never mine. Adult life wasn’t much different: strict landlords and shared spaces made it impossible to have a dog for years.

Then I met Osiris. I used to hear her barking from a nearby house on my jogs, chained up in the yard. One day, I asked her owner if I could take her in. He was more than ready to let her go—and now she’s everything to me. I’m still working on getting official permission to keep her (🤭), but I couldn’t let that stop me from giving her the life she deserves.

Becoming a dog parent has already filled my heart with so much love, and I’m proud to share that journey with others.

Lucha is the full-time boss of Maya’s world and a a total daddy’s girl – She calls the shots on when it’s time to cuddle, when it’s time to explore, and exactly when her favorite yogurt cups should be served.

As a Sniff & Bark model who stays motivated by treats, Lucha leads every outing with curiosity and charm. Always ready to explore new places, she’s as spirited as she is sweet — and always calling the shots, both in and out of the office.

Enya’s title? CEO of Sophie’s life. She runs the show—claiming Sophie’s office chair (and pretty much everything else) and stealing the spotlight modeling the latest Sniff & Bark gear. When she’s not soaking up compliments at the dog park, she’s scheduling her next nap.

But don’t let those beauty naps fool you—Enya’s also a frisbee-catching queen, beach explorer, and self-appointed neighborhood watchdog. She’s the perfect mix of boss energy, charm, and stubborn sass — and she knows it.

Osiris may be tiny, but she’s the undisputed manager of Felix (and the whole house). At just around 3 months old (we think!), this little powerhouse rules with sass, stubbornness, and a personality way bigger than her size.

Don’t be fooled by her cuddly side—she’s the one calling the shots, keeping Felix in check, and making sure every day is full of surprises, snuggles, and plenty of love.

Small but mighty, and totally in charge.

Toby and Pandoy are the real bosses of Jessica—running the show, making the rules, and living like royalty.

Toby’s the king of comfort: napping, eating, and soaking up all the love like a true lab. His top priority? Park trips with his partner-in-crime, Pandoy, of course.

Pandoy is always ready to stir things up, grab the best toys, and make sure everyone knows he’s in charge. But when it’s cuddle time, he’s all love, keeping Jessica wrapped around his paw.

Together, they rule the house—demanding treats, controlling nap schedules, and making sure Jessica knows exactly who’s boss.
