As Teacher Appreciation Week rolls around, it’s time to shine a spotlight on those exceptional individuals who inspire, guide, and empower others to reach their fullest potential. At Best Friends Fur Ever, we are immensely proud to honor Ashleigh Bryant, our Corporate Training Manager, whose journey from humble beginnings to her current role exemplifies dedication, passion, and a profound love for animals.
From Overnighter to Corporate Trainer: Ashleigh’s Journey
Ashleigh’s story at Best Friends Fur Ever began 17 years ago when she joined as an overnighter. In those early days, she immersed herself in the unique responsibilities of caring for our furry guests during the night, ensuring their safety, comfort, and well-being. Over the years, Ashleigh’s versatility saw her transition through various roles within the company, from dog handling to kennel supervision, front desk management, resort management, and beyond. Her deep-seated love for animals and commitment to service led her to explore different facets of the business, eventually leading her to her current position as Corporate Training Manager.
A Teacher’s Heart: Nurturing Growth and Empowering Others
What sets Ashleigh apart as a remarkable teacher is her unwavering dedication to her students’ growth and development. Whether they are newcomers with a passion for animals or seasoned staff members aspiring for advancement, Ashleigh approaches each individual with patience, understanding, and a commitment to building a solid foundation. Through her guidance and mentorship, she instills confidence, equipping her students with the skills and knowledge they need to excel not only within our company but also in their broader careers.
Ashleigh’s impact extends far beyond the confines of our company walls. Many of her former students have gone on to achieve remarkable success in the veterinary field, owning their businesses, managing practices, or becoming veterinary technicians. Her ability to nurture talent and foster growth is a testament to her exceptional teaching abilities and genuine investment in the success of others.
Embracing the Best Friends Fur Ever Family
For Ashleigh, the allure of Best Friends Fur Ever lies not only in its commitment to providing top-notch pet care but also in its tight-knit, family-oriented culture.

In an environment where everyone pitches in, supports one another, and shares a common goal, Ashleigh finds fulfillment and purpose.
Beyond the Call of Duty: Ashleigh’s Background and Passion
Ashleigh’s passion for animals extends far beyond her role at Best Friends Fur Ever. With a background in dog training and experience in search and rescue, she has dedicated herself to helping pet parents find closure and reunite with their beloved companions.
