Serving tiny chaos with big heart

Meet the Chief Floof Cuddler

Creating a calm, cozy, one-on-one boarding experience for small dogs isn’t just what I do—it’s what I love.

Hi, I'm Alexandra! (Ali)

Founder, Little Pup Snuggler-in-Chief, and Proud Yorkie Alumni Mom
Lucky Pups Club Home Based Boarding for Dogs under 25lbs

I'm the human behind Lucky Pups Club—a boutique, in-home boarding service for small dogs who deserve all the love, comfort, and couch cuddles while their humans are away.

For 18 years, I was a full-time dog mom to a trio of spirited Yorkies. As they aged, they needed extra care, patience, and an environment that made them feel safe and snuggled. Through them, I learned how powerful it is to have someone you trust completely with your most precious pup—and how hard it is to find that person.

After my last pup passed in 2022, I wasn't quite ready for another lifetime commitment with a new four legged bestie but I also knew I couldn't live a dog-free life. So, I built the kind of service I had always wished existed: safe, loving, low-stress boarding that feels more like home, and much less like a kennel.

Saying goodbye to my kiddos was the hardest thing to go through as Yorkie mom, but welcoming your pups into my home has brought joy full circle for me. Visit my pup hall of fame and get to know all the pups I've cared for over the years.

My Kiddos

Pacha - The first pup of my heart and the root of my Yorkie obsession. Equal parts grumpy gus and mama's boy - Pacha was a tender and snuggly buddy.

Suzi - My first ever resident Queen Bey. Suzi Goose kept her brothers in line so mom didn't have too. She always got in the middle of all the chaos to set Chevy straight.

Chevy - Chevy was a STAR and he freaking knew it. He was an epic adventure pup and went anywhere he could get away with it!

Because small dogs deserve big comfort, too

Why Lucky Pups Club Exists:

Big kennels are not for every dog. Especially not for tiny, anxious, or senior pups. Many small dogs get overwhelmed in busy, loud environments—and some just need a little extra one-on-one care (or five cozy beds to choose from).

Lucky Pups Club was created to be the gentle, cozy alternative. With no more than four dogs at a time, I get to know each pup personally—their quirks, cuddle preferences, and favorite spot in the sun.
