As our Client Care Center Manager, Susan has a kind and compassionate heart that has enabled her to understand the needs of pet parents who have lost a beloved pet.

According to Susan, during her first visit to meet Daisy, “she put her paw on my heart and I knew from that moment she belonged with us”.

Gail Client Care Receptionist
If you have called our offices, you most likely have spoken with Gail, our Client Care Receptionist. Gail has been with us more than ten years and her love and compassion for animals is huge. Pictured here with her beloved “Peaches”, Gail rescued Peaches’ mama “Tabby” when she showed up on her patio “so thin you could see her bones and she was meowing for food”. A few days later, Tabby brought up her kittens Peaches and Tiger. According to Gail, “they all adopted us, and we loved it!” Unfortunately, both Tabby and Tiger have crossed over Rainbow Bridge. As much as Gail and her husband Bob miss them both, they are thankful to have Peaches still with them after 17 years. Gail and Bob enjoy volunteering with their church helping with yard sales to raise money for missions and spending time in the mountains and at the beach!

Lenee Staff Counselor
Anyone who has had the privilege of speaking with Lenee, is struck by her calm voice and peaceful spirit. As a Staff Counselor with us for more than 8 years, Lenee is dedicated to serving the needs of her Pet Parents. As pet parent to “Daisy” she understands what it means to unconditionally love your fur babies. Daisy, a tortoise tabby, came to Lenee several years ago. The owner of Daisy was looking to rehome her since she did not get along with her kittens. It took several months of love and patience to calm Daisy and make her feel comfortable in her new surroundings. For a few months, neither one of them slept! According to Lenee, she knows she is definitely “Daisy’s person” as Daisy does not take to new people and is now quite the guard kitty as she sits up like a rabbit and growls whenever she hears anything.
