Practice Manager - Kerry
Kerry has worked at Alpine since early 2019. She enjoys all aspects of helping people navigate taking care of their pets and has enjoyed getting to tackle different ways to do that after being promoted to Practice Manager in 2023. Outside of work she enjoys spending time with her crew of fur babies at home or playing roller derby with Coyote Country Roller Derby. She currently has two dogs; a 13 year old Blue Heeler named "Gage Morgan" and a 3.5 yr old Pit/Lab Mix named "Chunky Big Chunks", and three cats; a 12 year old domestic short hair named "Domino", a 6 year old domestic short hair named "Grey Goose" (aka "GG"), and a 4.5yr old domestic short hair named "Folgers". Both "GG" and "Folgers" were relinquished due to life-threatening health issues and were saved with the aid of Alpine's Angel Fund (a Good Samaritan fund) and our veterinary team. Kerry then adopted them as medical rescues. For all of the Cosmere fans out there, she also enjoys reading and discussing Brandon Sanderson's Cosmere novels with her partner. |

Rachael
Rachael was born and raised in Anchorage, Alaska. She grew up with her parents, two sisters, and the family dogs - a golden retriever, a black Labrador, and a black Labrador/German Shepherd mix. Rachael is a WSU graduate with a B.S. in Animal Sciences. She lives with her husband, their young daughters, black Labrador “Ziva”, yellow Labrador “Tess”, and their flame point Siamese “Wynter”, whom they adopted from the Alpine several years ago. Rachael is cross trained to work in the boarding kennels, as a receptionist, and as a veterinary assistant. This allows her to help fill in when an extra hand is needed. When not at work, Rachael enjoys spending her weekends with family, cozying up with a good book, or tackling a new baking project. Rachael loves the color blue and hopes to travel to Europe and Australia someday. |

Laura
Originally from Indiana, Laura’s heart & soul is tied to Alabama due to family. Laura lived in many states all over the country before settling on the Palouse. Growing up with hamsters (“Ralph 1” & “Ralph 2”) and cats (“Ala” & “Bama”) as a child, Laura was terrified of dogs due to suffering multiple dog attacks. However, once she moved to the Pacific NW, her experiences with dogs changed due to the difference in how dogs are raised & treated here. She now owns dogs including “Freya”, a sweet Pitbull mix, and “Chili”, a herding mix whose loss this year still makes Laura’s heart ache. Laura has always had a way with animals, but also enjoys caring for the pet owners as they go through different phases of their pet’s & family’s lives. Laura recently read “Our Symphony with Animals” and was moved by reading in depth about the richness of the human-animal bond. In her spare time, Laura loves activities in the great outdoors including paddle boarding, camping, fishing, reading, and playing games. |
