Kim Youngblood

Founder
Kim Youngblood is the CEO at Youngblood’s Natural Animal Care Center & Massage. Kim is a graduate of Equissage in Virginia and obtained her certification in canine and feline massage therapy in 2014. She also graduated from Angel’s Animals Holistic Care in March of 2018. Kim has had animals her entire life and used to breed, raise, and show Newfoundland’s very successfully. Her horse Sage is an important part of her life, and she loves trail riding with her daughter Samantha. Her goals are to help your animals reach their optimal health the natural way and to empower you as the owner. Her prayer is that God will use her hands and talent to improve your animal’s health and life. She views the owners as more than clients, but as friends and partners in their animal’s care. When Kim isn’t busy massaging animals or working at the store, you will find her gardening, at the gym, working around the farm, sewing, and spending time with her husband Dave of 39 years and her daughter Samantha.

Samantha Youngblood is the owner of [Business]. She graduated from IUPUI in May 2010 with a bachelor’s degree in General Studies and double minors in English Literature and Music. In 2014, she earned her certification in equine sports massage and rehab therapy from NE Indiana Equine Sports Massage and Rehab Therapy in Decatur, Indiana, where she also completed additional training in equine raindrop therapy, animal thermography, and saddle fitting.


In May 2015, she traveled to Florida and became certified in equine and canine kinesiology taping through Angels Animals Holistic Health. Continuing her education, she achieved her Certified Pet Food Nutrition Specialist designation through DNM in June 2019.


Samantha shares her home with her four dogs and three cats — her Sphynx cats Winnie and Mortimer Brewster, and her Lykoi cat Rumpleteazer. She competes with her dogs in flyball, dock diving, scent work, parkour, and more, with one of her Boston Terriers ranked number one in U-FLI Flyball with over 23,000 points. She loves helping people and their dogs grow together as a team, always making fun the top priority.


When she’s not at [Business], Samantha enjoys time on the farm, teaching at the gym, and spending time with family. She hopes her work continues to help animals live happier, healthier lives.

Jacque Powers

Technology Specialist & Marketing
I grew up in a small town in Kansas graduating from Pittsburg State University with a Bachelor of Arts in Communications. I moved to Indiana and received my Master of Arts in Journalism from Ball State University. After moving to Indianapolis, I spent 25 years in corporate marketing and communications while raising my two girls, Ali and Liv, with my husband Mark. Our family fell in love with Golden Retrievers when we brought home our first – her name was “Boogger.” Yep – that’s what you get when you let your 9-year-old name the family dog. Never just a “one-dog family,” we currently have two Goldens – Reggie and Charly. Liv and I spend a lot of time training for and traveling to both AQHA horse shows and AKC Obedience Trials. I was introduced to the “Youngblood Culture” at their Riley Days booth before they even had a store front and have become one of their biggest fans. With my family raised and having done “adequate time” in the corporate world, I decided to join the Youngblood team out of a great love for my dogs and a real curiosity for providing them with the best of life through natural, holistic care and nutrition.

Graduated from IU in 2002 with a BAC in Criminal Justice. Attended the Indiana Law Enforcement Academy and worked as Chief Marshall for five years before attending Ivy Tech for a nursing assistant. I have two dogs Mia, almost 14 yrs old pittie and Lucy, one yrs old rottie. I have had dogs my whole life and started shopping at Youngbloods several years ago so I could try to help them live a longer and healthier life. The best life starts with food and getting the proper nutrition along with holistic care. I plan on continuing to learn all I can to help my dogs have the best life I can.I don't have any children so my dogs are my babies.

Jane Stangel

Nutrition Specialist
I became interested in feeding my dogs a better quality food and eventually started feeding raw food in the mid 1990's. I have been impressed with the health of my dogs over the years. They are vibrant, healthy, and have even had vets comment on the overall wellness of my dogs. Just like people, animals thrive when they consume the foods they were meant to eat. I've had Australian Shepherds for over thirty years and now live with 2 Mini American Shepherds, Sofia and Esme, and a mixed breed - Roz, on a farm in Greenfield. I was previously an agility instructor and trained/showed several of my Aussies in various agility venues. I have started back into dog sports with my 2 minis and look forward to a future of fun and games with my girls.

Our favorite store for all the dog & cat items! I heard about them through a FB friend a couple years ago, so I figured I’d check it out. We regularly shop here now & have not only made friends with owners Kim & Sam, but other employees as well as customers. They are fostering a wonderful community of pet lovers through their family-owned store, the dock, classes they host, etc. We stock up on high quality training treats, freeze-dried raw, supplements, biothane leashes, chews, dog kibble, cat toys — all the things! Kim & Sam helped guide us through long-term persistent skin issues that one of our dogs was experiencing a couple years ago, and through their nutritional expertise & food recommendations, our dog hasn’t had a single skin issue since! Our Doberman was recently diagnosed with cancer and Sam has been a huge support through that, giving us resources for additional treatment options, nutritional guidance, and more. Youngbloods is truly more than just a ‘pet store’! We cannot say enough great things about them and will be customers for life.

Such a great place! Trainers are great and so helpful. Sam and Kim run an amazing store and always take time to talk us through products and help us resolve issues. Our cocker spaniel has allergies and Sam took the time to talk us through probable causes and what we can use to make it better. He is already doing better and we are very thankful he has relief. Definitely recommend visiting!
