Meet the team
Amy Smith, CPCN
Founder & Owner
I’ll admit it—I wasn’t always a dog person. But in 2005, just two weeks after moving into our first home, my husband begged for a puppy. Little did I know that one puppy would turn me into a full-fledged crazy dog mom, and I’ve never looked back! Fast forward 20 years, 6 dogs, and 6 cats later...here I am, living my passion for pets every single day.
​
I’m also a Certified Professional Canine Nutritionist, with a deep love for all things pet wellness. My journey into pet nutrition began with my own dog, Sam, whose health challenges inspired me to dig deeper into how diet and lifestyle impact our pets’ lives. Now, I’m dedicated to helping pet parents give their furry family members the best care possible.

The Dog’s Pajamas was created to offer personalized, stress-free care that keeps pets happy and thriving at home. My mission is simple: to make your life easier while ensuring your pets get the love and care they deserve—because they mean the world to us.
