Our Story and Mission

At Sniff and Wiggle Dog Resort, we believe that every pup deserves a safe and secure environment where they can play, explore, and socialize with confidence. Safety is our top priority, and we take every measure to ensure that your furry friend is always protected. Our facility is designed with your dog's well-being in mind, featuring supervised play areas, secure fencing, and a team of trained professionals who are passionate about providing attentive care. Whether your dog is here for a few hours or a full day, you can have peace of mind knowing they are in loving and capable hands.

With over 30 years of experience in customer service, I have dedicated my career to understanding people’s needs and providing exceptional care. But long before that, my heart belonged to dogs. As a child, I would rush home from kindergarten to share my day with my beloved dog, Missy, who was always there to listen. That bond ignited a lifelong love for dogs, shaping my dream of one day working with them full-time.

Dogs have given me so much more than I could ever give in return. Their unconditional love, loyalty, and companionship have been a constant source of joy in my life. Now, I’m turning my passion into a purpose by creating a safe, secure, and enriching environment where dogs can thrive. This daycare is more than just a place for dogs to stay—it’s a home away from home where they are valued, loved, and cared for like family.

My mission is to provide a space where dogs feel happy, engaged, and completely at ease. Whether it’s through structured play, socialization, or simply offering a comforting presence, I am committed to ensuring that every dog in my care experiences a fulfilling and enriching day. Their well-being is my top priority, and I strive to give them the same warmth and love they so generously give to us.

At the heart of this business is a deep desire to give dogs a better life. Whether they are here for a day of fun or as part of a long-term routine, my goal is to create an environment where tails wag, friendships form, and every pup feels special. Because dogs aren’t just pets—they’re family. And they deserve nothing but the best.

Tim Mayclin

For over 40 years, I have built a successful career as a trusted Certified Public Accountant, known for my expertise in numbers, tax laws, and financial strategies. Helping individuals and businesses navigate their financial journeys has been a rewarding experience, but my true passion has always been with our four-legged friends. Now, I’m embarking on a new adventure—one that blends my professional skills with my love for dogs.

Branching out from the world of finance, I’m thrilled to launch a doggie daycare that provides a safe, loving, and fun environment for your furry family members. Dogs bring so much joy and companionship, and I believe they deserve the best care possible while their owners are away. My attention to detail and commitment to excellence will ensure that every pup receives top-notch care, just like my clients have come to expect from me over the years.

Beyond providing exceptional daycare services, my mission is to give back to the canine community. I am dedicated to supporting rescue efforts and helping dogs in need find loving homes. Every wagging tail and happy bark inspires me to make a difference, and this venture allows me to create a space where dogs feel loved, secure, and truly at home.

At our doggie daycare, safety and fun go hand in paw. From supervised play sessions to cozy cuddle spots, I am committed to offering an experience that puts both dogs and their owners at ease. Whether it’s a day of socialization, exercise, or just some well-deserved pampering, I look forward to welcoming your pup into our family. Because at the heart of it all, this isn’t just a business—it’s a passion-driven dream come true.

Colleen Simmons

For 33 years, she dedicated her career to serving as a dispatcher, expertly managing fast-paced and high-pressure situations with unwavering focus. But beyond the radio calls and logistics, her heart has always belonged to animals—especially dogs. As the owner of Happy K-Nine Training, she has spent her entire life refining her skills as a dog trainer, helping countless owners build strong, trusting relationships with their furry companions.

Her love for animals extends beyond dogs; she’s also a lifelong horse enthusiast, finding peace and connection in the presence of these majestic creatures. Whether working with dogs or horses, she believes that true training success comes from clear and effective communication. She thrives on teaching owners how to understand their pets, knowing that once that connection is made, it sets the foundation for a lifetime of success.

Now, as the lead training consultant for Sniff and Wiggle, she brings her expertise to a fresh and exciting environment. While she doesn’t own the daycare, her role is instrumental in shaping its training programs and ensuring that every dog receives the guidance they need. Her passion lies in fostering a balanced and well-mannered canine community, where both pets and their owners feel confident and supported.

And when she’s not working with dogs, you might just find her unwinding to the sound of a Willie Nelson tune, embracing the same sense of harmony and freedom she strives to create between people and their four-legged friends. For her, training isn’t just about obedience—it’s about building a lifelong bond of trust, understanding, and companionship.
