Kim McCune
Field Team Manager & Recruiter
Hello! My name is Kim McCune. I am so excited to have the role of Field Team Manager and Recruiter with 9 to 5 Pets! My family and I are originally from Tennessee but we’ve lived in the beaches area of Jacksonville for 26 years now and I consider myself a local! I have three amazing kids that I’ve raised here; my oldest daughter has flown the coop but my son and youngest daughter live with me. We love our beach lifestyle!
Growing up, my mom called me ‘Ellie May Clampett’ since I would come home with all kinds of ‘lost’ creatures from snapping turtles, snakes, raccoons, foxes, birds, rabbits; you name it I’ve had it! We currently have three pups; Tank who is a 14 yr old 7lb poodle mix rescue, Brisket an 8 yr old feisty Chihuahua mix rescue and Karma a 1 yr old giant Doodle floof. Our kitties are all rescues as well; Chloe who is 17, Ruby is 9 and Copper is 9 months. Never a dull moment in our house!
My position with 9 to 5 Pets gives me the opportunity to do 2 things I enjoy most: meeting new people and their pets and training our teammates in the field. My former career in the railroad industry will allow me to put my experience to great use with 9 to 5 Pets. I began as a Customer Service Representative and worked up to my last role as a manager of a specialized group of 5 in Transport Technology. My role was to meet and train all of our customers and crew on our web based rail management system. I loved meeting and helping people from all types of backgrounds! I also conducted interviews, held town hall meetings for new customers and led training classes for employees. I left the railroad in order to be closer to home for my youngest daughter who is special needs. This new path enables me to do what I love and still dedicate time to my kiddo!
I am so excited to join the 9 to 5 Pets family! I look forward to working with everyone and helping to make sure our clients have the best pet care experience possible!
