Martina was born in Germany 50 years ago and loves sharing her life with dogs and people. After devoting the last 20 years to teaching high school and raising a son she studied Small Animal Massage and canine behavior. She teaches German part time at the Bend Waldorf School. In her free time she likes to read, garden, hike and kayak. Martina is in charge of scheduling, budgeting, and outreach at Kindred Spirit. She loves giving tummy rubs, hiking, and feeding her canine guests healthy food. She is ably assisted by her two rescued dogs Jessie Jo and Kashi . Jessie is a 12 year old Catahoula Mix while Kashi is a playful Cock-a-Poo who is just 2 years old and is still learning to overcome her fear of " strange men" and kids .Please forgive her if she barks at you when you come to our house for the first time

Ronni Zuiderweg-Urbach is a delightful spirit who admits that she prefers the company of dogs at times to that of humans. She is upbeat, loving, and hardworking; we are very happy to welcome and her 2 dogs to the Kindred Spirit Team. Her beautiful pups Kaia and Dallas love to accompany their mom while she plays and hikes with the Kindred Spirit dog pack...and wait patiently while she cleans the house afterwards
