Holly Owens, Daycare Attendant

Holly works part-time at the center (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday) and helps cover vacation days and absences.

Holly’s always had a love for dogs and all animals. She currently has 2 rescue dogs – one black lab border collie named Finn, and a mutt named Mocha – and a tabby cat named Hunter who has been her best friend for 11 years.

Holly’s favourite part of being a daycare attendant is getting to know each of the dogs and having lots of playtime with them!

When she's not hanging out at daycare, Holly loves to spend her time at home with her dogs and cat, and participates in various theatre productions!

Brennan Bertrand, Daycare Attendant

​Brennan is part of our morning crew, and brings a strong, calm sensitivity to all his interactions with the dogs.
One of his favourite parts of being a Daycare Attendant is how loving and open the dogs are with him!

Brennan loves to snowboard, enjoys reading comic books, watching classic movies and playing video games.

He hopes to soon be able to follow in his grandfather's footsteps and travel the world.

We really enjoy having Brennan as part of our team, and we know your dogs do too!!
