Leanne Macdonald-Loyd, Owner

                    Born and bred in Pasadena, Leanne trained to a high standard in quality animal care, hygiene, grooming and CPR and has worked with key businesses in the Los Angeles area.  Leanne is passionate about excellent pet care and rescue, as she’s been caring for animals her whole life.  Leanne began volunteering at the North Central Animal Shelter where she’s taken more than her fair share of the residents home!  Leanne resides nearby, busying herself with her little Scruffamuff named Pierre, Shih Tzu  Ella, two kitties Julius and Matilda, as well as her 2 year old and 5 year old human children! 
Leanne has total respect for Temple Grandin’s take on the animal world and admires her work to reduce stress, panic, and anxiety in livestock and pets.  It is with this approach that Leanne handles the pets in her care as well, incorporating practices in pet grooming that serve to keep pets calm and comfortable.  Her dream was to create a friendly and professional local hub for animal lovers to connect, share and learn in Down Town Pasadena.
