What we’re about
Laurie, the owner of Dog Days Pet Care and the visionary behind "Dog Days Canine Connection," is a passionate pet lover who believes that the bond between dogs and their owners goes beyond the leash. She created this meetup group with the aim of fostering a warm and welcoming community for like-minded individuals who share her love for furry companions.
Laurie knows firsthand the joy that comes from spending quality time with dogs and the importance of socializing and connecting with fellow pet enthusiasts. She envisions "Dog Days Canine Connection" as a place where members can come together, not just to walk their dogs, but to share stories, laughter, and create lasting friendships.
Laurie is dedicated to curating a variety of fun activities and events that cater to all levels of dog lovers, from casual walkers to avid adventurers. Whether it's leisurely strolls in the park, dog-friendly picnics, or even themed costume parades for dogs, Laurie's goal is to create a vibrant and inclusive community where everyone feels welcome.
By founding this meetup group, Laurie hopes to provide a platform for people to connect, bond over their shared passion for dogs, and, in the process, form meaningful and lasting friendships. With "Dog Days Canine Connection," Laurie's vision is to not only enrich the lives of dogs but also to create a supportive and joyful space for pet lovers to come together and make memories that will last a lifetime.
