Jessica
​🐾 Ragnar & Fozzie

The Thumbs behind it all. Jessica is the Chip Gaines of RDMoC, always a little goofy, but gets sh*t done. Life-long dog obsessed momma to 5 year old Aussie mix twin brothers, Ragnar, her third beloved beast, that she found on Facebook as a puppy being re-homed. And then 2.5 years later rescued his litter mate Fozzie when is original family gave him up due to his seizures. First came Emma (a rescued Australian shepherd), second was Greta (failed PAWS foster German Shepherd). 9 year veteran Foster Mom for PAWS Chicago. Known for “dog calling” from bike or out the window of her car AND for losing mind & have minor panic attacks over puppies of all ages, sizes and breeds. Regular “violator” of other people’s dogs at dog park. Will kiss and hug your dog if it goes near her… you’ve been warned.

​Shelter & Community Program Director at Hinsdale Humane Society.

SPECIAL EVENTS MANAGER & COPY EDITOR

Kerry
​🐾 Coco & Nova

Kerry adopted Coco in December of 2016 from her favorite Chicago rescue, One Tail at a Time, and Nova in January of 2020 from Second City Canine Rescue. Until adopting Coco, Kerry was a self proclaimed crazy cat lady (and still is!), but now she also fully embraces being a crazy dog Mom. In her day job, she’s a software Business Analyst but her passion has been animals since she adopted her first cat Luna back in 1997 from The Hinsdale Humane Society. If all goes well and she wins the lottery someday, she’ll open an animal rescue in Chicago. Until that day though, she’ll continue to donate as much of her time and money that she can to help the cats and dogs of Chicago. You can often find Kerry and Coco (and soon to be Nova too!) checking out dog friendly bars, breweries, and restaurants all over the city.

CO-FOUNDER

Lindy
​🐾 Jake

Brand Manager & CFO, Lindy is the Joanna Gaines of RDMoC - she makes things beautiful. Lindy is a first time dog momma, adopting Jake in May of 2016 from Midwest Canine Connection, but she’s been a crazy cat lady all of her life. She currently has 3 fur babies, her dog, Jake 3 years old, and two cats, Abbie 14 years old and 2 years old Otto (rescued from Trio Animal Foundation). She has been caring for and fundraising for homeless pets since 2004 when she first adopted Sophie (until we meet again, my sweet girl) at the Jacksonville Humane Society for which she was volunteering at the time. Since then, she has been working with various local shelters providing care, supplies, and love to the animals still looking for a forever home. She’s always looking for some whiskers to pet and will squeal when she sees a dog from afar!

Looks pretty fun, right?
