Board of Directors
Who We Are

Megan Steele
Founder & President
I started in rescue back in 2012 as a foster and volunteer. I quickly learned that this was a passion of mine. I fostered for 4 other rescues before taking a leap of faith and starting this rescue in 2014. I am a proud mama of my rescue pup Kinsley who is a Turkish Kangal mix and my 6th personal dog as an adult. When I am not working with animals I love to travel and work on my photography
Debbie Bohna
Treasurer
Debbie started with the rescue as a foster in 2015. She helps in all areas of the rescue. She loves animals and spending time with her family



Cassandra Fiander
Director
A dedicated advocate for animal welfare, I began volunteering in animal rescue in 2020. This passion quickly blossomed into a personal mission, leading our family to adopt three rescue dogs and one cat. These days outside of balancing a career and raising 3 children our family dedicates time to fostering cats providing temporary care and love to animals awaiting their forever homes.
Tanis Bartlett
Secretary & Volunteer Coordinator
I work full time, have a husband and 2 sons and currently live with 2 dogs and a kitten all adopted from MRES. I enjoy camping, biking, paddle boarding and am a die hard flames fan. Some of the other areas that I volunteer for at MRES are the reference checks and I am on the home check team. I try to get out to volunteer at some of the events when time allows.
