Meet the Team

Born and Raised in Bowling Green, Savannah is a passionate animal lover with over 7 years of experience in the pet care profession. Savannah worked as a veterinary technician at All Creatures Animal Hospital doing everything from working in the kennel, prepping/monitoring surgical patients, running lab work, and working ER on call nights while in high school and college. While at All Creatures, she was also a supervisor, where she managed multiple employees. She oversaw their training and scheduling. For the past couple years, she has made comments about creating a daycare/boarding facility that can serve the clients and pet’s needs. She saw the demand for another facility while working at All Creatures. Savannah’s love of animals will become apparent when you meet her at The Barkmore! Outside of work she enjoys spending time outside and hanging with her Husband, little girl, and four fur kids.

Sierra has been working with a variety of clients and patients over the years. She has worked with many clients and also has experience at All Creatures Animal Hospital where she worked for almost 2 years. She quickly learned of her love for animal care and the compassion it takes to help clients. She has always wanted to join Savannah in her dream of opening a dog daycare and boarding facility. Sierra wants to ensure The Barkmore provides that top notch care to be a pet’s second family. Outside of work, Sierra enjoys spending time with her husband, little girl, and, of course, 3 pups! She is so excited to see how The Barkmore can continuously improve the care for people’s pets.

Emily has loved animals since she was a child. Her love for animals led her down a route of private house sitting and dog sitting for many clients and animals. After working as a receptionist for several years at another local business, she realized she could use the knowledge she had in a better environment: The Barkmore! Emily uses her skills to communicate with owners, schedule appointments and reservations, and keeps the staff entertained with her random dance parties! While working at the Barkmore, Emily is also a student at Western Kentucky University where she will complete her degree in Nursing. She loves working at the Barkmore and all the smiling faces she sees each morning at the front desk. She also loves all the furry friends that jump up to give her kisses! In her time off Emily enjoys hanging out with her family, boyfriend, Kyle, friends, and cat Goose! She loves being able to serve the clients that make The Barkmore possible, and loving their pets like her own! 

Alexia welcomes guests with a warm smile and engaging introduction. Being involved and helping customers with their daycare & boarding needs is what she enjoys the most.
