About

Hey pooch fam! I'm Mia, founder of The Poochie Mumma. I have always been an animal lover growing up and I have been lucky enough to turn that passion into my profession. With years of working for the RSPCA, I had so many owners coming to me for advice and asking to look after their beloved pooches. With a successful pet-sitting business, I have turned that into a specialised wedding pet care service. With my knowledge in animal welfare and animal behavior, you can trust in me with your pooch! <3

FAQ

Absolutely! My business orginally began as a pet sitting business so I welcome overnight stays. It is a great chance for your pup and I to get to know eachother. It allows me to get a good understanding of your pups behaviour and also helps with your pup feeling comfortable with me (in what can be an overwhelming environment already). 

It also allows you to enjoy your wedding night with no stress! Party the night away while your pup is sound asleep after such a big day. 

Sleepover dates book out over a year in advance so please reach out asap to secure your dates. 

With my background in animal welfare and pet care, I have a deep understanding in animal behaviour and how to spot the first signs of stress. I reccomened to all my brides that they take their pup to a park or somewhere with a crowd to see how they respond. 

If they are showing signs of stress, I do not recommend they attend your ceremony. 

I offer packages for pre-wedding celebrations which is a great choice for overwhelmed/anxious dogs. This allows them to stay in their familiar environment but also allows them to apart of your day and pre-wedding photos.

Mia was incredible! From the day we contacted her and the first visit to meet our pups we knew she was the perfect person to look after our fur babies on our wedding day. She went above and beyond looking after them and showering them with love and attention pre wedding, during and after. She has such a warming presence and our dogs adored her! The photos and reels she sent us after were amazing aswell. Couldn’t recommend her and her business enough!

I absolutely recommend The Poochie Mumma! Such an incredible business and Mia was absolutely amazing. I have an anxious little cavoodle who fell in love with her!! Because of Mia, I was able to have her in our wedding and photos which I never thought I would be able to do. I wouldn’t trust anyone with my girl truly. She has a heart of gold and is great with dogs. My anxious girl Princess was so calm and happy while with Mia and I didn’t have to worry about her throughout the day. The most trustworthy business and worth it 100% to have your furry child included in your wedding.

Oh Mia, we cannot thank you enough for your wonderful services! I highly recommend anyone looking to bring their pet to their wedding to book with The Poochie Mumma. She really took the time to get to know my dog Ollie, and it’s clear how much she loves animals. The whole day was seamless, I didn’t have to worry about a thing with Ollie as Mia took care of everything from beginning to end! Our photos with Ollie’s are so beautiful and he even stayed with her when we went on our honeymoon straight after. I can’t thank you enough for your kindness and care for our boy Mia.

I cannot talk any more highly of Mia - The Poochie Mumma! She helped us with my boy Archie - he was the ring bearer at our wedding and it was the best decision I made!! From the first moment I contacted her, she was so warm and flexible with all my needs. Mia was great with training Archie before the wedding, when it came to the day he was so calm and walked down the aisle with ease and not a worry in the world! It meant the world to me to have my boy there and I’m so thankful for the Poochie Mumma and her services for helping make this happen!

What a great service! The Poochie Mumma took my pup Lola to our wedding. She picked her up and took her to my venue and helped Lola be apart of our ceremony (as our Flower pup!) and then stayed for our photos! She took the time to get to know Lola which helped so much on the day. It’s always a struggle to get a photo with Lola but Mia took the time to bring Lola’s favourite treats and toys, which helped the photographer so much! Our photos turned out amazing and the photos with Lola are my favourite! I wouldn’t trust anyone else with my dog!!! ❤️❤️

We want our dog in our wedding. Any tips?

Would love some advice! We def want to include our dog in our wedding! We want him as the ring bearer. Are they are any things to avoid or prepare for in advance? Thanks!

The Poochie Mumma

Of course! 

I would reccomend taking him to parks or perhaps somewhere with a crowd of people to get him used to it and see how he responds. The main thing is to make sure he isn't stressed or overwhemled so preperation is key! 

I offer wedding services such as transportation, supervision, and sleepovers! Sleepovers are a great way for me (or who you decide to help with your pup) to get to know your pup and help him feel more confortable before the big day.

You wont regret having your furbaby apart of your day, they are part of your family so this is a must! <3 Happy to help with whatever you need or if you have any questions feel free to reach out.
