About

Welcome!

Hi! My name is Lacey and I’m the author of Fluffy Family Fun! I began this website to offer knowledge and help pet owners be the best possible parents. Animals have always been a passion of mine so starting a blog seemed like a great way to reach people.

I have worked with animals for over 15 years and owned animals my whole life. My work with animals started when I answered an ad to pet sit a black lab for 6 months while her owners moved. I was living in Southern California at the time and that experience led me to starting my own pet sitting business, Pet Paradise, for 4 years. 

I moved to Texas and switched gears to work in mental health care for children for 8 years. During those years I was also helping to train dogs and began learning about keeping chickens.

Currently, I work at a local pet store and decided to extend my reach to helping even more people with their pets. The advantage of working at a pet store is being educated about pet foods by different pet food reps, learning all about certain products, and hearing what the most common questions are by pet parents. My goal is to research and get answers to all the top questions in pet care .

I have owned dogs, cats, rats, hamsters, turtles, guinea pigs, chickens, tropical fish, and cichlids.

I currently live with my husband, Michael, and our menagerie of fur kids. Tucker is my perfect 8 year old Golden Retriever. When I say he is perfect, I have had 2 different people go adopt a dog because they “wanted a Tucker.”  He is a huge inspiration for a majority of my canine articles because, although behaviorally he is perfect, unfortunately he has had several health issues. Manja is our newest addition. She’s a pure bred goofy one year old Rottweiler that we rescued from the pound this year. Next, I have Squish and Raisen my two Abyssinian guinea pig boars. Lastly we have two fish tanks with cichlids. Our animals are our children. They make our life better and so I want to return the favor!
