About Jessica
Hi, I'm Jessi! I have an amazing family with my fiancé, our 2 daughters and 2 sons. We 3 Goldendoodles and they have been the perfect additions to our family. They have all been health tested to ensure no puppies will have genetic diseases in the future. I have worked in HealthCare for 20+ years and helping others is a passion of mine. Raising healthy pups for loving families is my mission!
What makes Jessica’s program special
I focus more on temperament than coat coloring when matching pups with a family to make sure the pup matches their lifestyle. I truly believe that dogs heal hearts and I want to share how wonderful this breed is with others. We start on potty and crate training to ease the transition going to their forever home.

Why Jessica started breeding
I fell in love with the breed when my son, who had recently been diagnosed with a disability, was having a meltdown. Our Goldendoodle went up to him, sat down next to him, and laid her head on his lap. It was at that moment that he snapped out of his tantrum and started petting her. She was able to detect that he NEEDED her and she was there. That is the type of love that every family needs.

I have a hard time imagining a better experience with a breeder. Jessi TRULY loves her dogs and their puppies, and cares for the puppies like they were her own babies. I’m not kidding, she loves them...
