Our Team
MacKenzie Malloy
MacKenzie’s passions in life have always revolved around nature and animals. As a kid with a pet snake, followed by a pet duck: no animal was excluded. Her friends call her the dog whisperer, as even the difficult ones warm up to her very quickly.
MacKenzie currently fosters dogs out on her little farmstead with her three dogs, two cats, and a soon to be full chicken coop. In her free time MacKenzie teaches yoga, practices martial arts, and does every outside activity she can find.
Sam is a Lincoln/Bismarck native. Her love of helping people is amplified when it comes to taking care of their animal’s. From cats, dogs, ferrets, snakes and even a few bottle calves, she loves them all.
You can find Sam going on adventures with her dog, Millie, and spending time with family and friends.
Samantha Lachenmeier
Braydon spends his free time hanging out with his dog Moose, on the river, or hiking. Moose may or may not be with on all of these excursions.
When he’s not working for Kiki’s you can find him at Destin2Print & Destin2Shine.

Rachael Howard
Rachael is a transplant to Bismarck from the East Coast. A lover of animals, mom of three, and a small business owner Rachael spends any free time she can find in the sunshine with her friends/family and pets.
Growing up on a farm she’s accustomed to dogs, cats, chickens, horses, and even bottle feeding calves and lambs. Rachael owns 3andme where she’s a master at making lattes and the most healthy lunches around.
Heather Kappala
During the day Heather is an RN with Dakota Home Care. At night she is a mother of three children, a rooster, various chickens, a handful of cats, and as many dogs as the rescue needs fostering.
In her free time you’ll find her supporting Mandan High football, as well as volunteering at Miles of Love’s various rescue events.
Chelsy Ciavarella
Growing up south of Bismarck, Chelsy was given a very animal friendly life from the start. From the standard house pets, to Sugar Baby (ifkyk), no furry creature was left behind.
Chelsy also owns Poppy Creative. In her free time you’ll find her doing all things crafty while hanging out with her three dogs: Rooney, Finnley, and Jordie.
Abbie Kappala
Abbie is currently a high school senior at Mandan High School. Her love of animals started with her mom’s fostering of all sorts of furry creatures. She’s even brought a few home herself. Abbie is known to run onto the road to save a turtle or to bring a deceased animal home for a proper burial. With Abbie’s big heart, she’s not sure what is in store for her life, but she is leaning heavily towards health care.
