I have been at Pet Play House for five years now. One of the biggest goals I strive to achieve in my daily life and in working at Pet Play House is making sure any animal I come in contact with is well taken care of and loved. I have five (yes, you read that right!) sweet babes of my own! From youngest to oldest, we have Louis, a toy Yorkie; Link, a grey tabby cat; Bubba, a tortie cat; Chewy, a Lhasa apso; and Kiki, an orange tabby.

I have been working here for three years and have been a lead for less than a year and still love it. I love being able to interact with our customers, people, and dogs alike. I love to meet all kinds of dogs big and small and their different personalities and funny little quirks. I also love learning more about different breeds that I did not get to see before working here.

I have grown up with dogs and cats my whole life and each one has touched my heart and I have two of my own. Ollie is a Doberman pincher Mix who just turned two in April, and an eight-year-old long-haired cat named Blue, and I love them both to death! I got Blue starting my senior year in high school when he was four months and immediately showed a, then 60 lbs., Bassett-mastiff mix whose boss. I also got Ollie when he was four months old, and both at The Humane Society. I love watching them grow up together and play with each other at our house and can see that Ollie has learned how to play like a cat and pounces on everything and even though I have two I would love to have more!

Hello all my name is Kylie Wells. I have been working in the pet care industry for the past year and a half. I started out as a dog trainer under training many age groups from puppies to adults. I now take care of your pups and give them the best care. My baby is a shih tzu named TinkerBell and she is spoiled rotten and lightens every room up with just a wag of her curly tail. 

Kerri is a lifelong dog lover and can’t imagine life without them! Her current “pack” consists of an old hound dog named Ward and a little black cat named Killakee, along with her son Roland. Together they all equally enjoy long walks in the neighborhood or a chill day at home playing video games. Kerri originates from our Coleman location in Mount Pleasant, where she has worked since 2013, and she has known many My Three Dogs regulars since they were puppies!
