Board of Directors and Executive Team

Our team at Nuzzles & Co. is committed to a world where every dog and cat has a loving home, and we are dedicated to saving every life until Utah – and the entire United States – is no-kill. That is our mission every single day. We are grateful for our organization’s leaders and for the countless volunteers and staff who work toward a loving, no-kill world each and every day, one rescue pet at a time.
