Hi my name is Liz, I'm a very driven person when I'm doing something I love. There is a different companionship, and bond between me and the animals that I have met and worked with. I've always had a passion and motivation to work with animals. As a whole my goal is to be able to assist people and owners on how to work with their animals and create the bond that they give us! I studied Animal Psychology to have a deeper understanding of what makes them; them. It has helped me grow and learn how to adapt my personality and helped me to be able to understand what each and every animal needs. I am certified in Animal care, Animal First Aid and Animal CPR. and I have my hands full at home with my pack! I have three dogs Merlin (Pembroke Corgi) Stella (Hound Mix) and Luna (Staffordshire Terrier Mix), one Ferret Bandit, two Dwarf Bunnies Hank and Oreo, two cats (Mother and Son) Zoey and Marley, and one Fancy Rat Athelstan. I also love doing a few other things besides working with animals such as, baking homemade cupcakes, cookies, and dog biscuits! I enjoy going thrift shopping and dyeing my hair funky colors!

My name is Kayla, I got my start really working with dogs at the local animal shelter here in Westfield. This is where I fell in love with the idea of really getting to know a dog on a personal level. I have spent time with local trainers learning basics on dog training which I have applied to my job here at Camp K-9. I am certified in Animal care, Animal First Aid and Animal CPR. Outside of spending time with my favorite dogs at Camp K-9 I rescue and foster cats and kittens. I own two cats Buffy and Clyde along with a few others who have become permanent fosters in my home. In my spare time I enjoy playing video games and spending time with my cats and family on my days off. My goal is to grow as a dog behaviorist and with the hopes to someday become a certified dog trainer.

I knew at a very young age that I wanted to be around animals. In high school I was in the marine biology studying fellow friends from the sea. After high school I worked at a pet store taking care of birds, fish, reptiles and rodents and loved learning about the different animals. Shortly after t hat I moved to Westfield and found out about Camp K-9 and that they were hiring. Right away my goal was to work here. I am grateful everyday for working with your fur babies and learning all their different personalities. I am also pet and first aid certified along with my fellow counselors.
