History The Puppy Playhouse was founded in 2005, in Sherwood Oregon by Cindy and Roger Bruckart.Cindy built the business from scratch, when doggie daycares were an uncommon occurrence.As the business grew, Cindy’s daughter, Katlynn Pendergarst managed the day to day operations of daycare and boarding.Cindy then had time to focus on her passion, training dogs.At one point Cindy expanded the business to include a separate training facility in Newberg.In 2009, Cindy and Katlynn hired Tom Steinhoff who they knew from Project POOCH as a daycare employee.After a year of working for and apprenticing under Cindy and Katlynn, Tom bought out the business.In addition to his years of experience working at a boarding kennel, a dog rescue, and a doggie daycare, Tom brings a unique skill set with him to The Puppy Playhouse.Tom has undergraduate degrees from UC Santa Cruz in Legal Studies and Art, focusing on printmaking and photography.He also has a law degree from Lewis & Clark Law School where he focused on areas of law relating to small business.Tom has three rescue dogs of his own, two of which attend daycare at The Puppy Playhouse on a regular basis.
