Three years of Paws & Strides! 🐾🩷

Today marks 3 years since I opened my doors, and I truly can’t believe how quickly the time has gone. What started as a dream has grown into something I’m incredibly proud of, and I’m so grateful for every dog, cat, small animals, and family who has been a part of this journey.

To all of my past and present clients, thank you for trusting me with your beloved pets, supporting my small business, recommending me to others, and allowing me to be a part of so many special memories along the way. Your support has meant more to me than you know. 🥹💗

There have been plenty of challenges, changes, learning experiences, happy moments, and of course SO many wagging tails along the way. I’m incredibly thankful for every part of it.

Here’s to 3 years, the amazing clients who helped get me here, and all the adventures still to come! 🐾✨

Thank you for being part of the Paws & Strides family. 🩷

Just me, bags of homemade bagels, and my very interested taste-testing assistant 😂🥯🐶❤️

Found this little local sourdough business a few weeks back and I couldn’t resist. Now it’s a staple in our house for on the go breakfasts. Fresh sourdough, homemade bagels & even more delicious good stuff 🤎 Go check them out and support a small business, you won’t be disappointed! 🥯✨
