MEET OUR LEADERSHIP TEAM

Liz Olson

Executive Director

“I am humbled by this opportunity to serve the pets and families of the Flagstaff community and beyond. I have worked in animal welfare in Northern Arizona for several years and look forward to bringing my experience and expertise for quality animal care and community programs to High Country Humane.”

With her extensive experience in the field of animal welfare, most recently as Director of Operations at the Humane Society of Sedona, Liz will bring her innovative thinking and proven programs to her new position as High Country Humane’s Executive Director.

She is passionately dedicated to advocating for animals and has applied her training and expertise in a wide range of areas including shelter management, coordinating volunteer recruitment and activities, managing special events, developing TNR, SNR, and Working Cat programs, designing high volume spay/neuter programs, and developing animal care and handling programs that promote reduced stress and healthy populations for both staff and volunteers.

Dr. Carly Bennett

Shelter Veterinarian

“I’ve wanted to be a veterinarian as long as I can remember and worked as a technician at Second Chance for a year and a half before starting vet school and that’s when I really knew that I wanted to be in shelter medicine.

After completing my veterinary training in Dublin, Ireland, I returned to Flagstaff and have worked at Kaibab Vet Clinic for the last six years. I am incredibly grateful to the team at Kaibab for giving me the tools I needed to succeed and move forward to pursue my dream of practicing shelter medicine.”

Dr. Bennett will handle all the shelter’s standard veterinary needs including performing exams on all incoming animals, caring for those animals that come into the shelter with injuries or illnesses, and performing the spay/neuter surgeries required before an animal can be adopted.

Dr. Katy Green

Public Veterinarian

“Thank you for welcoming me to the High Country Humane Team.   My name is Dr. Katy Green.  I have been a veterinarian for 18 years and love this career.  After moving to Flagstaff almost two years ago, I’ve begun to recognize the need within our community for low cost veterinary care.  I am passionate about caring for animals and helping people.   The opportunity to help people and their pets through this low cost public clinic is exceptional.  Thanks to donors, grants and the facility at High Country Humane, we hope to improve the lives of many within our wonderful community.”
