What began as a labor of love has grown into a thriving bakery for pets—featuring healthy, locally-made goodies that pets (and their humans!) adore. 🐶💖 2️⃣ Balancing It All: As a full-time nonprofit worker, a master’s degree student, and a business owner, Sidney shows how time management and passion can turn big dreams into reality. Her advice? “Take the leap, even if it’s small. Believe in yourself, and let your purpose drive you!” 🌟 3️⃣ Giving Back to the Community: Whether she’s running the Pope County Farmers Market, organizing events for Main Street Russellville, or greeting customers, Sidney’s heart is firmly rooted in connection. Her impact goes far beyond her business—she’s a true advocate for community growth. 🌱 👉 Want to spoil your furry friend with Sidney’s all-natural treats or learn more about her inspiring journey?
