Meet Our Team

Since joining the team in 2021, Madi has swiftly advanced from an Animal Care Attendant to the Kennel Manager, and now shines as a Professional Trainer in Tupelo. A true country girl from Munford, Tennessee, Madi's life has always been intertwined with dogs and the great outdoors. Her passion for animals was evident from a young age, leading her to volunteer at shelters and dream of a career that included her furry friends. Madi is thrilled to embrace the Tupelo community and its new faces, but she's particularly excited about discovering new hiking trails to share with her two dogs, Tucker and Raven.

John, a proud Tupelo native and passionate animal enthusiast, became a part of our team following nearly five years of dedicated service at a bustling veterinary clinic. His home, a lively sanctuary for an eclectic mix of animals adorned with fur, scales, and feathers, reflects his dream of establishing an animal rehabilitation and sanctuary. When not at work, John is often found skateboarding with friends across Ballard Park or enjoying leisurely walks with his loyal dog, Teddy. Eagerly anticipating the growth of our business, he looks forward to a promising future with our team.

Traci’s life has always been intertwined with animals, and she predominantly enjoys larger dog breeds.

She graduated from Shannon High School in 2006. Before working in the animal care field, she held various jobs, ranging from a 911 dispatcher to a pest control inspector. She is a wife and a mother to four dogs, two cats, and two teenage girls.

When not at work, she enjoys gardening and spending time with her daughters. Traci is a Florida Gators fan and loves watching any of their sports with her family. She is eager to learn more about the animal care industry, as well as the business side of things.
