ABOUT US
Hi! I'm Jessica Ellis, owner of Freedom Acres Kennels. I have been involved in animal care and training for many years. I have worked as a veterinary assistant for 10 years and have experience in training/behavior modification. Previous to my veterinary career I was an EMT/medic in the U.S. Army, deploying twice in support of Operation Iraqi and Enduring Freedom. I also have experience in protection dog training. I love caring for all different sizes and personalities of dogs that come to Freedom Acres! In my spare time, I love to be outside with my kids and dogs enjoying our farm and hiking in ​the Pacific Northwest! I am truly blessed to be able to do what I love for a living.
Freedom Acres Kennels developed out of a goal to care for my family and pets in a more self sufficient, home based manner. Realizing I had a great deal of experience in the dog training and veterinary industries, this business idea grew out of a passion to create a better space to care for dogs than what is currently available. In creating Freedom Acres, I took a different approach to the way I kennel dogs for clients. I believe that each dog has individual personalities and needs and that owners should be able to customize their pets stay in order to maximize their comfort. I believe in delivering this kind of care because it's what I would want for my own dogs!
