At Four Muddy Paws, we believe pets deserve the very best in health, nutrition, and care—and that every pet parent deserves an outstanding customer experience.
Founded in 2004 by Matt Brazelton and Jeff Jensen, Four Muddy Paws has been a cornerstone of the St. Louis and Edwardsville pet communities for over 20 years. Their vision created more than just a store—it built a trusted neighborhood hub for natural, wholesome, and thoughtfully curated products for dogs and cats. We’re proud to honor their legacy of quality, community, and passion for pets.
In June 2025, Four Muddy Paws began a new chapter under the ownership of Stephanie and Jesse Windsor. Together, we are entrepreneurs at heart—committed to building upon the strong foundation of the past while bringing fresh ideas and innovation to the future.
Stephanie’s journey with Four Muddy Paws began more than eight years ago as a sales associate. Through her dedication, expertise, and genuine love for pets, she rose to become General Manager of both stores. Along the way, she built deep expertise in pet nutrition and has guided countless customers toward healthier choices for their dogs and cats. Today, Stephanie leads with that same passion and knowledge—ensuring our shelves are filled only with products that truly support pet health and well-being, while fostering the same welcoming, community-driven spirit that has always defined Four Muddy Paws.
Jesse brings a wealth of leadership experience from the corporate IT world, where he specialized in digital workplace and customer experience solutions. At Four Muddy Paws, he’s focused on modernizing the digital experience—from our website and e-commerce to loyalty programs and behind-the-scenes systems—making every interaction with our customers seamless, convenient, and engaging. His entrepreneurial spirit and technology background help ensure that Four Muddy Paws continues to evolve as a modern, innovative business without ever losing its community roots.
As we look ahead, we’re excited to continue growing Four Muddy Paws with the same passion and purpose that Matt Brazelton and Jeff Jensen instilled from the very beginning. Thank you for being part of our story—and for letting us be part of yours.
