Morgan Hagel
Lead Groomer
I’ve been grooming my own dogs and my family’s dogs for as long as I can remember, and that lifelong love for animals has grown into a true passion for grooming. I’m currently attending grooming school to continue developing my skills and knowledge. One of my favorite parts of grooming is transforming a scruffy pup into a clean, fresh, happy dog! I take pride in providing a safe, comfortable, and positive experience, treating every dog with the same patience, kindness, and attention I would give my own. Coming from a local family, I’m excited to combine my love for animals with my passion for serving our community.
Outside of grooming, I love spending time with my two dogs, Breezy and Patch, and my two cats, Charlie and Whiskey. I enjoy the outdoors, especially hunting and fishing, and I also love baking homemade treats. Animals and the outdoors have always been a big part of my life, and I’m excited to continue growing as a groomer while getting to know the wonderful pets and families of the Northwoods K9 Club community!
Savannah Clark
Lead Animal Care Technician
I’ve always had a love for dogs and animals of all kinds. While I’m still growing my professional experience in animal care, I’ve learned a lot from caring for my own dog, Mellow. I enjoy getting to know each dog’s unique personality, understanding their needs, and making sure they feel happy, safe, and comfortable. One of my favorite parts of working with dogs is meeting new furry friends, spending time playing with them, and building a connection through patience, kindness, and care.
What matters most to me is treating every dog with the love, respect, and individual attention they deserve. I understand how important pets are to their families, and I want every owner to feel confident knowing their dog is being cared for as if they were at home. I take pride in creating a positive, welcoming environment where every dog feels valued and loved. I’m excited to be part of the Northwoods K9 Club team and look forward to getting to know all the wonderful dogs in our care!
