of the hit show Doggie Moms

One of the many things we love about being New York "Doggie Moms" is meeting other "Moms" (and Dads!) who adore their dogs as much as we do. From casual meet-ups in the park to high-end, celebrity-studded fashion shows, we're always making new canine and human friends to share amazing adventures with. http://www.nyc.gov/html/nycmg/nyctvod/html/home/_doggie_moms.html

Many "moms" out there got a glimpse of our fun (and often hectic!) lives on the recent six-week reality series, Doggie Moms on NYC Life (Channel 25), and we wanted to introduce you to just some of the many other, fantastic pet moms--dogs, cats, and otherwise!--in and around our great city.

And what better day to do that than on Mother's Day? We hope you enjoy the photos and wonderful sentiments from scores of pet moms who answered our call to tell us more about themselves as much as we did. And remember--becoming a pet mom is as easy as making a visit to your local shelter or rescue group. Take it from the "Doggie Moms": the love of a pet is a gift that never goes out of style!

Happy Mother's Day to all! -- Love, Erika, Grace and Karen. (Be sure to tune in to the Doggie Moms two-part reunion show airing on May 11 and May 18 at 9:30 pm on NYC Life Channel 25!) Click here for a sneak peak.

Stella and Chico
Stella and Chico

My mom, loves her Granddog Chico...As a doggie mom, I wanted to celebrate both of them on Mother's Day! Thank you to my Chico, who made me the proudest doggie mom when he provided my mom with much needed love and laughter when she was in a nursing home, battling cancer and recuperating from multiple surgeries after being struck by a car. From my heart and Chico's, we want to wish the greatest "Doggie GRANDMOM" in the world a very Happy Mother's Day! Love, Chico and his Doggie Mom, Stella.

My Yorkie, Toto, almost died recently. My Maltese looks after her (maybe too much) but I am so happy that she has a reason to live! I love them both and hope I can make a tribute to my Toto before she dies. She has travelled extensively with me, to puerto Rico, florida, Maine, etc on hikes, climbs, rafting, surfing! I love her. Love, Susan

That's me, Tootsie, and I am the luckiest puppy in the world cause I have a mom who love to play football with me! I'm the best wide receiver who can escape any tackle. But sometimes I do let my mom, Gerri, tackle me cause it always ends up with a hug...and I do love hugs!

We are Beth and Petey Kraimer. He is 7 years old now. I always wanted to be a Mom and when I found Petey terribly distressed in a pet shop I knew I had to take him home. After a while he recovered and became the shoe wearing show off in Manhattan. He has made feel so loved and appreciated that he models professionally and go to all the hottest parties in the city.
Crystal
Molly and Kaboodle






My cats clearly hit cat lotto. I am the kind of cat mom who literally wakes up, fans them and feeds them treats. They have a cat bunk bed with their names monogrammed on them and a pink litter box shaped like a heart. I am very lucky and blessed to have my Molly and Kaboodle; they make me incredibly happy Mother's Day and every day of the year. Lisa
