Meet the Team

Alyssa – Marketing Manager/Asst. Kennel Manager

A dog lover and marketing guru, Alyssa has known and worked for Arielle for many years and knew she wanted to be a part of the Complete Canine family when it opened. As a teacher, Alyssa learned patience and compassion and applies that to caring for all the dogs who stay with us. After leaving that position, she began to dabble in graphic design and marketing and fell in love with the creativity outlet that provided. When she joined Complete Canine she was able to blend her love of dogs and graphic design into a career that has become her passion. She is a wife, first-time mother to her baby girl Magnolia, and fur mommy to Jax and Laszlo, her two pittie boys. 


Sammi – Asst. Kennel Manager

Having always had a deep love for animals Sammi chose to start pet sitting when she was able to get her driver’s license. Her affection for caring for animals grew as she began to care for more pups. When she was given a chance to join the Complete Canine Family she jumped in paws first! She recently adopted her own fur baby, Jax, who has become a cherished part of her life. Jax often accompanies her to the kennel. He has helped many of our guests ease into their stay, play, and enjoy their stay! He loves to meet new friends, he and his mom are excited to shower your fur baby with love when they visit!


Samantha – Groomer

After starting her career in grooming as a bather, her love for the industry continued to grow and she knew she wanted to further her training to become a full service groomer. She works with many different breeds of dog every day and always makes sure the clients’ fur babies are as comfortable and as happy as possible while they are on her table. At the end of a long day, she loves to come home to her husband, baby girl, and her own Boston Terrier fur baby.


Zoe – Groomer

Having been an animal lover her entire life, Zoe has always known that she would work with them in some way. While her husband, a United States Marine, was stationed in San Diego she began her grooming career. She started off as a bather but decided to take the leap in pursuing grooming more in depth within her first year in the industry. During their four years in sunny California she worked under many talented groomers and honed in her skills. We are so excited for her to join our team, and as she so excitedly wrote on her Instagram*, “I’m so thrilled to continue my grooming career at this beautiful facility… I can’t wait to see all my favorite Missouri people & their pups at my new job”! Missouri is her home state, where she was born and raised locally. She has worked with many different breeds, temperaments, and coat style – her favorite to groom are Poodles, any Doodles, and any Bully Breeds. At home she has “quite the zoo” with three dogs and two foster-fail kitties. She strives to love on each pup as if they were one of her own and enjoys giving each of them an experience and cut that is unique and loved by their owners. She, cant wait “to work with you and your pup soon!”
