Our history

Nearly 70 Years on One Property

  1. 1956

    Vincent Kennels opens

    Longview is founded on the same property it occupies today, originally as Vincent Kennels. Following the Vincents’ tradition, those who oversee Longview have always lived on the property.

  2. Growth

    Room for every pet

    Over the years Longview expands to two large dog kennel buildings, an all-purpose dog grooming salon and a separate cat boarding area.

  3. 2001

    The Noullet years

    Chris and Cherie Noullet care for Longview from 2001 to 2019.

  4. 2019

    Mike and Amanda Russo

    In February 2019 the Noullets lovingly pass the business on to Mike and Amanda Russo, with big plans for renovations, staff training and other improvements.

The caretakers

Meet Mike and Amanda

Mike and Amanda Russo have run Longview Boarding and Grooming, L.L.C. since February 2019. Mike grew up in Chicago, Illinois, and Amanda in Shelby Township, Michigan. Both are engineers, with degrees from the University of Illinois Chicago and Michigan State University.

Amanda worked at Longview as a teenager, discovered her passion for pet care here, and came back more than a decade later. Mike and Amanda married in May 2018, have owned dogs and cats all their lives, and today share their home with two dogs: Ragnor, a pointer mix, and Aki, a chihuahua mix.
