We had an absolutely wonderful experience with our Australian Labradoodle breeder. She raises the cutest, sweetest dogs and does an incredible job preparing them for life with their new families. From being around children to becoming comfortable with a variety of noises and experiences, it was clear that each puppy received thoughtful care and socialization. She genuinely cares deeply about her dogs and continued to check in with us after Willie came home to see how he was adjusting. She was communicative, supportive, and attentive throughout the entire process. We also love being able to send her photos and updates of Willie—she is always so happy to see how he’s doing. Willie is truly the best addition to our family, and we couldn’t be happier. We would absolutely recommend her to anyone looking for a loving, responsible, and dedicated breeder!

We couldn’t be happier with our experience with Alina at Snooze and Sniff. From our very first email to meeting Millie for the first time, everything was handled with professionalism, warmth, and genuine care. It is immediately obvious how much Alina loves her dogs and how committed she is to raising healthy, well-socialized puppies. Her breeding program is incredibly well organized, and she goes above and beyond to make sure each puppy gets the best possible start in life, working with them on crate training and social independence. What impressed us most was how much effort she puts into setting new owners up for success. She was always responsive to our questions, provided excellent guidance, and made us feel confident every step of the way. Bringing home a new puppy can feel overwhelming, but thanks to Alina, the transition was smooth and enjoyable. Millie has been an absolute joy, and we are so grateful we found Snooze and Sniff. If you’re looking for an ethical, knowledgeable, and caring breeder who truly puts her dogs first, we recommend Alina without hesitation.

Sara Bahgat

We love our puppy and Alina has been extremely supportive during this process and transition. Our pup is so sweet and predictable, we have followed everything Alina suggested so far and it has been a lifesaver. We just had our first full night of sleep, less than two weeks after getting her, she’s super sweet and we love her. Thanks Alina for bringing and raising such beautiful pups, ours is a great addition to our family.

Dave Atchison

I've owned many dogs over the years and I've never had such a great experience as I have had with Alina at Snooze and Sniff. The facilities are clean and well designed providing for a healthy and happy start for the dogs. The early care and enrichment they provide for their puppies is far and away the best I've ever seen. Alina clearly spends lots of time with the pups and gives their future owners a huge head start on their training and socialization. My puppy started out with a great deal of confidence and healthy curiosity. He immediately fell in with my other dog and has been fully integrated into our routine in just a couple of days. The care lavished on them in the first months by Alina is paying off with ease of training and, most importantly, not having to correct any bad habits already formed. Thank you Alina for all your time and effort. Your professionalism and attentiveness has made this an outstanding experience.

Mark Platta

Quality breeder with clean operation and great involvement with her dogs and pups.

Shweti Mahajan

We had a wonderful experience with Alina. She was responsive, knowledgeable, and clearly cares deeply about her dogs. Our puppy came home healthy, well-socialized, and with such a sweet temperament. You can tell the puppies are raised with a lot of love and attention. We’re so grateful for our pup and would absolutely recommend Alina to anyone looking for a responsible breeder. 🐶✨

Abhijit Kundu

It’s been great to work with Alina. We got our Australian labradoodle from her. As a first time dog owner we were very worried about the entire process. She was very helpful throughout and gave us all the right guidance. The puppy we got was a perfect match for our house and family . Thank you!

Sarah Loughary

We absolutely adore our pup, Finn, from Snooze and Sniff, and we have Alina to thank for the effort taken to select wonderful temperaments, as well as the socialization of all the pups from the beginning. Finn is from a Murphy and Thor litter and is just the sweetest, fun loving, all around good boy. We’ve been lucky to have Finn in our family for over a year now, and he’s a love bug with our 4 kids and best friend to our 4 year old Australian Labradoodle, Cooper. Finn was quick to potty train, did well crate training, and just very smart and fun and goofy. We’ve noticed he seems to share similar mannerisms to Thor, in the best way! If you are looking for a breeder that takes the time to answer questions, checks in, chooses dogs with great temperaments, prioritizes socialization, especially with her own kids helping with those sweet pups, then Alina with Snooze and Sniff Australian Labradoodles is the one. We wouldn’t hesitate to work with her again.

Seon Kang

We recently adopted our darling fur baby, Mochi, from Snooze and Sniff, and we couldn't be happier. Alina, the owner, is exceptional, she took the time to get to know us and truly understand our lifestyle what we needed in temperament to pair us with our puppy. Her high standards and commitment to socializing and caring for her litters are evident. Mochi is such a joy. I can’t recommend Snooze and Sniff enough.
