Alyson and her husband Joe, reside in Strongsville, Ohio with their son, Michael, and two dogs, Yuki & Bernie. Alyson & Joe saw first-hand the dedication and reach of Remi's Pet Recovery after Yuki, then newly adopted, ran away from home. After 24 days on the run, Yuki was found living alongside the entrance ramp of an expressway. Yuki's ordeal was far from over, however, it was only through the careful & patient work orchestrated by Remi's that Yuki was safely recovered two days later. Following Yuki's return, the family moved to the suburbs and bought a house with a large fenced-in yard where the dogs are happy & safe. Alyson graduated from the Cleveland-Marshall College of Law and passed her State of Ohio Boards in 2013. She is an attorney and works in downtown Cleveland.

Vanessa got her start in animal advocacy back in 2010 when she started volunteering at the City Kennel and became a long-standing foster for then Friends of the Cleveland Kennel. She always stepped up for the difficult/ challenging cases and made her mark while fostering/rehabilitating “Miera’ the staple of the 2011 Dog Fighting Ring in Cleveland, Ohio. Vanessa got her first experience when she assisted in trapping a group of feral dogs that left a huge impact on her heart; thus, her journey began. With the support from her peers, Vanessa formed her own non-profit 501c3 in June 2017 now known as Remi’s Pet Recovery. Vanessa dedicates her life to helping reunite lost dogs with their owners and humanely recovers abandon/stray dogs. Vanessa is extremely selfless, passionate, and fiercely dedicated to making a difference in the lives of homeless animals and the families who seek her help.
Vanessa is proud to have been a stay-at-home mom producing four, well-educated productive members of society. She has worked in the veterinary field for the last 10 years.
She resides in Brook Park with her two rescues Bella, a chihuahua, and Argus, a Great Dane whom she trapped in March 2020.
