I have well over 10 years in management experience, including running several restaurants and multiple unit business. 

I have an associate's degree in business management with a minor in business psychology. 

I have three dogs, one and a half year old Barbas who is a pit/blue heeler mix, six month old Cami who is full blue heeler, and four month old Arya who is husky/shepherd mix, they are a hand full but tons of fun! I also have two cats, fourteen old Russia who is a tabby and eight year old Boots who is also a tabby cat, and lastly Shelly is my year old red ear gliding turtle. These guys are my life and I enjoy every day with them! 

Being able to work with animals is a dream come true and being able to mix that with working with great teams and helping to develop them makes this journey amazing, I am so excited to see where this leads me! 

Margheritte joined the Pet Paradise team in June of 2020 working in the HR department as the HR Benefits Administrative Assistant located at the Rio Rancho Resort. Being based in the resort, seeing all the fur babies coming in and going home, it became apparent that working with the fur babies was her true calling. She transferred to the Assistant Manager position in January, 2022. She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration/Management and is very happy to bring her knowledge, skills and excitement to the resort. 

Margheritte has four fur babies. Pictured with her is Rylin (Chocolate Lab) who comes to work with her every day and loves the pool. At home is Alex a Miniature Pincher, Annabelle a sassy Chihuahua mix, and a cat named Snowflake.

It is so exciting to meet and greet the pet parents and their babies when they come to the resort. Watching all the little wiggle butts and personalities makes everyday a great day in paradise.     

Hi! My name is Ashley. I'm the grooming manager here in paradise! I've been here since August 2014 and started my journey as a groomer in 2013. My favorite group of dogs to groom are Terriers.

I have 3 incredible dogs, 2 cows 3 chickens, and a super funny goat!

Hi! My name is Meghan! I've been grooming since 2013 and loved all the slobbery kisses I've gotten since. I'm a mom of four beautiful silly kids and three furry ones.
