OUR TEAM
Kelly Hayes
Owner & Animal Care Specialist
Kelly was born and raised at a dog show, quite literally surrounded by dogs from the very start. Growing up in the world of purebred dogs gave her hands on experience in animal care, training, and handling from an early age, and her life has revolved around them ever since.
Today, Kelly continues to show her Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retrievers under her Offshore kennel prefix and brings that same dedication to every guest at Greencove Acres. Her deep understanding of canine behavior and her lifelong passion for the sport ensure that every dog receives knowledgeable, compassionate care.
Outside of Greencove Acres, Kelly is also a professional pet photographer and owner of Kayes Media, offering photography services for show dogs, companions, and beloved family pets throughout the Venice area. Her work celebrates the bond between dogs and their people.
Matthew Coolidge

With years of hands-on experience working with dogs, including several years as a veterinary technician, Matt brings valuable knowledge and attention to the health and well-being of every guest.
