Elise Minkler CPDT-KA, Trainer

Omar Williams, Trainer

Hi, I'm Omar! With over a decade of experience in pet care, training, and grooming, I’ve had the privilege of working in some of the most respected establishments in the industry.

Corinne Firestone, Groomer

Hi, I’m Corinne! I recently returned to the Boston area after residing in Connecticut for quite some time. Around 2000, a special short legged Jack Russell, “The Little Guy” came into my life. Our bond moved me in such a way that prompted me to leave my career as a professional make-up artist, making the leap into the pet care industry.

Madison Raisman, Assistant Daycare Manager

Hi, I’m Madison. I grew up in Needham MA, and I have always loved animals, especially little cute puppies!

Anne Yang, Digital Marketing Manager

Hi, I’m Anne! Originally from Canada, I made the move to Boston a few years ago and have embraced the city’s charm and continuing my passion for digital marketing. I’ve always had a love for animals, and outside of work, I spend most of my free time with Alfred, my sweet (and camera-shy) 10-year-old beagle mix.

Alexis LaRoche CPACP, Operations Manager
