OUR FOUNDER
Meet Michelle, the founder and director of BestPals. Opening an animal shelter has been a dream of hers since she was a child. After noticing the void in the community for owner surrenders paired with shelter overflow, she became fueled with passion to turn her dream into reality and make a difference.
I feel my place is "a little piece of heaven" where a pet is cherished until it finds its forever home. This has been my dream and passion since I was a child. Animals give us so much unconditional love and they deserve the best! - Michelle
