Chris began her journey in Philadelphia, exploring a variety of career paths before relocating to the Poconos, where she discovered her true passion—working with animals.
Starting with no prior experience in veterinary medicine, Chris joined Pocono Lake Animal Hospital, where she developed a strong foundation in animal care. After two years with Dr. Miller, she advanced her emergency medical skills at Creature Comforts Veterinary Service, dedicating six years to honing her expertise. Driven by her passion and growing knowledge, she eventually pursued opening her own business and continues to work alongside a veterinarian.
As a skilled veterinary technician with extensive experience, Chris ensures the well-being of every pet under her care. She has also earned her Certified Dog Trainer & Instructor (CDTI) credential from Penn Foster, enhancing her expertise in animal behavior. Chris works alongside her head trainer, Meg Irizarry, at Fulcrum Dog Training, a division of Camp KCS, where she helps guide training programs and supports clients in developing strong relationships with their pets.
At Camp KCS, Chris is instrumental in ensuring your pet's comfort, supervising their care, and managing the business's daily operations. Our dedicated team includes skilled members with experience as veterinary assistants, and we prioritize ongoing education and training to maintain the highest standard of care.
Karen began her career journey in New York City, where she graduated high school and trained as a laboratory technician at Advanced Career Training. She gained valuable experience working for two years as a laboratory technician at Oradell Animal Hospital in New Jersey.
After relocating to Pennsylvania, Karen spent eight years as a veterinary technician at Creature Comforts Veterinary Service, deepening her expertise in animal care. With a lifelong passion for animals and their well-being, Karen eventually decided to start her own business dedicated to providing exceptional care for pets.
Karen brings immense value to the kennel with her extensive knowledge of animal behavior and her ability to quickly understand their needs. Drawing from her veterinary background, she expertly assesses pets’ comfort and takes immediate action to ensure they feel at ease and cared for.
