Hello! My name is Taleah and I have been with the Animal Care Center since August of 2020. I was born and raised here in Skagit County all my life and specifically live in Concrete! Growing up, I lived on a farm with many different animals and participated for many years in the Skagit County 4-H program which gave me my love for animals and helped prepare me for the field I am in today. After graduating 4-H and High School, I attended the PIMA Medical Institute of Seattle where I attained my certification as a Certified Veterinary Assistant. After I finished attending college, I married, got a couple of dogs, cats, and Sierra my 31-year-old Quarab mare. We all love exploring the beautiful land we are surrounded by, specifically, walking along the Skagit River where we spot lots of squirrels, deer, elk, and Bald Eagles! I love being a member of the Animal Care Center team, assisting the amazing doctors, and helping all the dogs and cats that come into our care.

Hello! My name is Mackenzie and I am thrilled to be a part of the Animal Care Center team! I went to Central Washington University where I  studied in the BFA musical theatre program. I moved here with my husband a few years ago from the east side of the mountains and have worked in many different fields including bridal, teaching theatre, and working as Cinderella with Enchanting Events. I love all things, music and Disney! When I’m not working, you’ll find me snuggling with my corgi, Arthur, and my cat, Susan, or performing in a show. I can’t wait to meet your fur babies!
