About us
Hi, I'm Kate
I am passionate about animals and believe in supplying our pets with the best products possible.
As a young child, we always had cats and a dog as part of our household. My favourite pet in my tween years was a pet rat named Pounce. While not everyone could inherently see the beauty in this pet, I loved this animal. I taught it tricks. It lived on my shoulder. It went everywhere with me when I was not in school.
As an adult, when there was no parental units dictating my animal ownership, I expanded my little home 'zoo' to include my two dogs, a beagle named Copper and a Great Dane named Lilith, four cats, a hedgehog, two axolotls and several fish tanks. I also rescued and rehabilitated many other critters including rabbits, rats, guinea pigs, skinny pigs, street cats, and snakes, some on my own, but many in conjunction with local rescues.
Owning a pet store has been a passion concept for some time, but the pandemic gave me the opportunity and time to change careers and follow my dream.
Hi, I'm Breagh
I'm the Manager at Wags, Whiskers, and Wings. I first joined the team in 2023 as a co-op student and quickly discovered how rewarding it is to work in an environment centered around animals and the people who love them. Today, I oversee advertising, marketing, and event planning, helping our store grow while creating fun and engaging experiences for our community.
My passion for animals started early — I grew up on a farm and was always surrounded by pets and wildlife. Over the years, I’ve also had the joy of adopting many kittens that have come through the store, each one finding a special place in my heart. Most recently, I adopted a puppy named Bear, who occasionally joins me at work and never fails to brighten everyone’s day.
Being part of Wags, Whiskers, and Wings is more than just a job to me — it’s a truly rewarding experience where I get to combine my love for animals with my creativity and connection to the community every day.
