Meet the Wiggle Room Team!
Rae
Lombardo
Daycare Manager
Rae has been with the Wiggle Room since 2019 and in the two years has become an integral part of the team. Rae started as a dog handler and quickly moved her way up to Daycare Manager. Rae not only knows every dog in the pack, but she knows all of their individual barks too! Rae lives in Little Compton with her boyfriend, two dogs, Odin and Gabby, three cats, Orion, Thumbs, and Isabelle, chickens, and ducks!
"If you were a dog breed what would you be, and why?"
Rae: "I think I would be a Corgi. They love everyone, have lots of energy but know how to relax, and they're down to earth."

"If you were a dog breed what would you be, and why?"
Alex: " My breed would be a Shiba Inu! I'm an introvert that likes to socialize with my people, I can also be affectionate but on my terms!"

Herbert
Daycare Handler
Caitlin started the Wiggle Room just this year!
Brooke first started in the fall of 2020 as a college intern through Bay Path University. She developed several social media campaigns, particularly a successful animated video teaching new owners how to prepare their puppy for grooming. It was shared nationally by grooming salons. Brooke has since officially joined the team part time as a Daycare Handler and we don't know what we'd do without her! Brooke lives in Coventry with her boyfriend, her dog, Nova, and two cats, Gatsby and Jughead.
"If you were a dog breed what would you be, and why?"
Brooke: "I think I'm a yellow lab because I enjoy eating everything in sight, long walks on the beach, and because I'm social with everyone."
