Uncle Buggy’s Hotel for Dogs is a 100% women-owned business founded by mother-daughter duo, Darcel Winslow and Cassidy Hall in 2025.
We created our company in memory of our son/brother, Jeremiah “Jimma” Moon. Also known by his nieces and nephew as “Uncle Buggy”.
Jeremiah was an avid animal lover who would have adopted ALL of the dogs, if he was able. He is greatly missed by his family and this is our way of carrying on his memory and his legacy of having ALL of the dogs.
We are devoted to providing a clean, wonderful, safe, happy experience for all dogs that come to Uncle Buggy’s.
