Who We Are
Vince Donuhue
General Manager
Vince is born and raised in St. Pete/south Tampa. He graduated from Northeast High School and is a current student at QC Pet Studies. He grew up around large dogs and a plethora of random animals as a kid. He grew up wanting to study Zoology, but once he entered the dog care field, he found his passion lied with dogs specifically.
​
Vince has a giant, loveable, white German Shepard named Ghost, who loves food, and Sidney, his bearded dragon. His hobbies include collecting oddities and old historical items. He also likes to pin insects and sculpt on occasion.
​
Vince has been with Puppy Manor for a little over two and a half years; his favorite part of the job is getting to see dogs just be dogs! Also he gets great joy from owners knowing their dog is with someone who loves them while they are away!
Brianna Mendez
Lead Kennel Tech
Brianna was raised in the country and has lived across the country and back. She graduated from Wilson High School and realized that she had already found her career in dog grooming from a very young age. As a child, Brianna would often groom dogs with her mom and started dog grooming professionally at the age of 12. She moved to Los Angeles for two years where she ran a grooming business by herself before moving to Florida and working for Puppy Manor.
Brianna has 3 pets, Valentino, a standard poodle, Priscilla, a chihuahua and Sharky who is a rat. She enjoys spending her free-time exploring, traveling, drawing, training her pets and playing video games.
As Brianna has always worked with and owned all types of animals, she finds working in kennels very rewarding and exciting towards her lifestyle. Her favorite part of the job is meeting all of the new pups and getting to see all of the different breeds that come in.
