About Sniff-n-Squeak
Meet the Owner
Hi there! I’m Bree Cissell, a lifelong animal lover and the heart behind Sniff-N-Squeak Toys. Growing up, animals were always an essential part of my life, and I’ve dedicated much of my journey to understanding how to better care for and connect with them. My career has given me a unique perspective on problem-solving, resourcefulness, and the joy of meaningful work—all of which I’ve channeled into Sniff-N-Squeak. When I noticed the challenges our pets face in today’s fast-paced world, especially as many adjusted to us being in and out of their lives post-COVID, I felt inspired to create solutions that genuinely enhance their well-being. My passion for developing products that support dogs’ mental and emotional health, combined with a commitment to community (we give 10% back to local rescues), drives everything we do. Through Sniff-N-Squeak, I’m thrilled to share my love for pets and bring a bit of joy and enrichment to homes everywhere.
Meet the Inspiration!
Sniff-N-Squeak was inspired by my two beloved dogs, Mika and Phoebe. From their playful curiosity to their boundless energy, Mika and Phoebe showed me firsthand the importance of enriching, mentally engaging toys that bring real joy and fulfillment to a pet’s life. As I watched them interact with toys that encouraged their natural instincts to sniff, forage, and problem-solve, I saw how this kind of enrichment kept them happy and healthy. They motivated me to create toys that cater to dogs’ unique needs for adventure, companionship, and mental stimulation. Mika and Phoebe’s influence is woven into each Sniff-N-Squeak product, ensuring that every toy is designed with love and purpose for dogs everywhere.
Sniff-n-Squeak's Journey So Far...
​Sniff-N-Squeak began with a straightforward idea: to bring well-made, thoughtfully selected toys to dogs who need more than just something to chew on—they need engagement, adventure, and a little challenge. Initially, we started by purchasing quality toys already available, ensuring they met our standards for safety and enrichment. But as we watched dogs enjoy these toys, our vision grew. I saw an opportunity to develop products that would go beyond traditional play, creating experiences that tap into dogs’ natural instincts and enrich their minds. Today, Sniff-N-Squeak is on an exciting journey, evolving from curated selections to designing toys that inspire mental stimulation and joyful interaction.
With every step, our mission remains clear: to create products that dogs love, that support their well-being, and that build a closer bond between pets and their people.
