Makenzie
Owner
Hey, I’m Makenzie!
I have absolutely loved working at the kennel for the past 5+ years. In 2024, I got the opportunity to become owner of A Country Kennel. It is a dream come true to work in pet care. It is also such a pleasure to have formed relationships with our amazing pets and pet parents- it’s thanks to you all that we have the opportunity to do what we love <3
At home, I have two cats Timmy and Prim, and two dogs Tuck and Koda!
If you have any questions or concerns about our services, feel free to ask a member of our Care Team to speak with me directly and I would be more than happy to help!
Nathan
Shift Lead
I’m Nathan, and this is my Squish! I grew up in a family who fostered and rescued feral dogs, and bred Chesapeake Bay Retrievers. I’ve been working in dog boarding and daycare for 4 years.
Danielle
Shift Lead
Hi! I’m Danielle and I have a dachshund/ chihuahua mix named Bear, and a pit mix named Luci!
I love meeting all of the doggies at work and building relationships with them. Mika and Sasha are my favorite daycare babies, they make every day the best day working at the kennel.
Gabe
My name is Gabe, I’ve been working with dogs for about two years now, and I love to see the excitement that our dogs hold when we enter their rooms! Each day is always exciting for me. I especially love watching the regulars and the first timers at the kennel become friends.
Working at the kennel is so much fun. Every day I get to meet new dogs and take care of them. Each dog has a different personality, getting the honor to learn about each one is something so awesome!
Ianna
Hi! I’m Ianna, and I have a Miniature Dachshund named Buster. I have had him for about 2 years now and he is my best friend!
I have worked with animals for 3 years- rescue and foster. Working with animals has always been my favorite thing to do because I get to learn all of their unique personalities. They make working at the kennel the best part of the day!
