Name: Nicole S
Pronouns: she/her
SOS Role: Foster Manager and Board Director
NICOLE joined SOS in 2016 as a transport volunteer. Her first-ever transport was picking up Fred & Ginger from the airport and bringing them to their fosters, and she has been growing with the team ever since. Transport, foster, foster counsellor, event volunteer, fundraiser, spay-and-neuter volunteer…she has worn many SOS hats over the years. She’s got a love for dogs, a passion to help and a background in education (human education, that is) — all of which has made her the perfect fit for her current role co-managing the Scruff Team. Her love for learning is the driving force behind everything she does, and she’s got a knack for educating our community on all things dog understanding. Whether she’s hosting training sessions, or chatting with fosters one-on-one when they need some extra help, she is there for you.
When she’s not leading the Scruff Team, Nicole S. is probably freezing in a hockey rink somewhere, or on the ice herself. She loves spending time with her family, working with new foster dogs, buying SOS merch and baking cakes.
