Meet the teamMeet Our Team of True Pet Lovers
ManagerNicky
I always wanted to work with animals, especially dogs.
In 1987 I completed my Trident work placement at Pont Rose Kennels and thoroughly enjoyed it so when an opportunity came to help run a brand new indoor kennel, I jumped at the chance.
I have always worked in hospitality since I was 13yrs and have been able to convert those skills to my current position.
I was able to complete a BTEC Level 2 course in animal management with 2 x Distinctions certificates including the first aid course
My partner & I have always had Briards and have currently Shadow & Bobby, couple of cheeky boys.
Although it is a very physical job, how many steps…?, it is thoroughly rewarding & I thank every single customer & guest since 2012 for making it the best job in the world & look forward to meeting new customers & their furry friends
Thank you 😊

I have been at the kennels since 2015.
I have always wanted to work with animals as I am a huge animal lover and own many myself.
Dogs have always been in my life and I couldn’t think of anything better than working with them. I have received my dog first aid course certificate and have completed my BTEC animal management course 😊

I started in the kennels part time soon after completing my trident course in 2017 and since have finished my A levels and joined as a full time kennel assistant since 2021.

I can’t imagine anything different.
I’ve also completed my animal first aid course.
Kennel AssistantJenson
I was given the amazing opportunity to start working part time at Classic Kennels in October 2022 & I’ve loved every single day since I joined. I took up the role of a full time Kennel Assistant in June 2023 and it has been great working with people who have the same interests& love for animals as I do.
I love discovering new dog breeds/mixed breeds that I have never heard of before & finding special bonds with the variety of new dogs that board with us.
I have 2 friendly French Bulldogs, Bobby & Bella and they have been my life ever since they joined our family in 2018 & 2020. I love how practical this job is & I have learnt so many things & so many great experiences that I will carry through life.
I am proud of being part of this achieving team & I am looking forward to the future working here at Classic Kennels 😊
