About Us

LaVa` Pooch Boutique is a small family-owned business that strives to make the world a better place one fashionable K9 at a time. Our mission is to continually provide stylish, high-quality, handmade, yet affordable products for dogs and cats of all shapes and sizes. We want your pet to be as fashionable as you are! LaVa` Pooch Boutique was created by me, Phyllis Whittaker. My chocolate lab, Hershey, is the driving inspiration for this company. I have been sewing since I was 8 years old. In ’88 I graduated with a degree in fashion design, where I learned and perfected how to draft patterns for clothing, window draperies, and much more. My love of fashion has inspired me to take my knowledge of sewing and pattern making into this new direction.
