Hi! My name is Sherry Lafortune. I’ve been a Board Director since early 2017. The Shelter has been my second home! I grew up loving animals and have many “fur babies” of my own now. I also have two children, run a horse boarding facility and work full time as a dental assistant.

Hi! I'm Susan Hertel. I have a wonderfully supportive hubby, we have spent the last over 34 years raising our 5 kids and we have a houseful of pets! I have been involved in animal rescue (in many aspects and positions) since 2002. Before we were able to rent physical space, our rescued cats lived in my laundry room and were showcased at Pet Valu! I'm very proud of the organization this team has built in such a short time and am very excited to see where it will go as we continue to grow!

Hi! I’m Leah Daoust-Hoskins and I am the board secretary. I have worked at a wildlife hospital, humane society, vet clinics, and boarding kennels. I am a Walks ‘N’ Wags Pet First Aid certified instructor. I love teaching dog and cat first aid courses! I am also a dog trainer holding the CPDT-KA (Certified Professional Dog Trainer – Knowledge Assessed) certification.

My name is Roy Hoskins and I’m a board director. In the past I worked at a wildlife hospital. One of my jobs with the wildlife hospital was doing humane wildlife exclusion for home owners. My volunteering with domestic animals began with dog walking at Cochrane Humane Society many years ago. In addition to volunteering with the Camrose & Area Animal Shelter Society, I am a volunteer firefighter with the Round Hill fire department, I volunteer with the Round Hill Elks, and I volunteer with Big Brothers

Hi my name is Linda Korbyl I joined the Camrose Animal Shelter family July 2021. I grew up with many animals and I currently have a dog, cat and a rabbit who are all rescue animals.

Hi, I'm Alex. I've been with the shelter since 2020. Ever since I was a little kid, I wanted to have a house full of animals and run a rescue to take care of the ones that had no home. Since moving to Camrose, my husband and I have grown our family to include 7 cats, 5 snakes, 3 dogs, 3 guinea pigs, 2 hamsters, 2 bearded dragons and 1 rabbit. When I'm not taking care of shelter projects, I'm home with my family or out taking pictures on the backroads of Camrose County.
