Manager

Welcome to Best Friends Gaithersburg!

Hi, I’m Zach, your Gaithersburg Center Manager. I have been working in animal care and the pet industry for about 20 years in various roles. I am a veterinary technician and a pet parent too! My five dogs and African Grey Parrot keep me busy. We are all pet lovers and enthusiasts here in Gaithersburg and we are so honored that you have chosen us to take care of your furry family members. Know that we work hard to keep them safe, happy, and entertained. We look forward to seeing you soon.
