Kennel Aides

Kristen Baumeister

Kennel Aide

My name is Kristen, I started working at Montgomery Animal Hospital in
March 2018. I have a human daughter named Violet and a furry one named
Nyla (cat). I also have 2 rats named Cashew and Blankie. In my free
time I enjoy reading, baking, listening to music, and trying to keep
my plants/garden alive. My pet-goal in life is to one day keep
chickens!

Augie Blackman

Kennel Aide

My name is Augie, and I started working here in February, 2018. I graduated from Oberlin College in the spring of 2018 with a BA in biology, specializing in herpetology (the study of amphibians and reptiles). I have a cat named Jeff, and he is the love of my life. He tolerates me. When I’m not working, I like to scrounge around in the woods for snakes and salamanders, go on long hikes, play guitar, and cuddle with my cat.
