Our Leaders

Without our amazing team of Board of Directors, we wouldn't be able to provide the level of service to those who served for us. We thank these folks, and everyone who volunteers to make 4P2F what it is today.

Sarah Cooper

Treasurer

Doug Wolfe

Trainer/Facility Canine Liaison/Board Member

Doug Wolfe comes to the organization with his service dog Cooper. He has an understanding of the challenges and time commitment that is necessary to dedicate to training a service dog.

Doug is a Navy Veteran and retired after 23 years serving the community as a Deputy. As our Facility Canine Liaison, he not only has the knowledge of having a working canine but also how important a facility canine is to our first responders, non-sworn staff, and the impact they have on the community they serve.

Amy Wolfe

Director of Training/Admissions & Office Coordinator

Amy Wolfe is a 2023 graduate of 4 Paws 2 Freedom. Before joining 4 Paws 2 Freedom leadership, Amy dedicated her career to serving the community as a 911 Dispatcher.

Amy's unique perspective as both a service dog graduate and retired from public safety allows her to understand the challenges faced by our students. She is passionate about mentoring, training and creating a community environment for all of our teams.

Skylar comes to 4 Paws 2 Freedom with a Master's degree in Environmental Science and a strong background in conservation, community engagement, and nonprofit work. She has worked for multiple nonprofit organizations.

Raised by two first responders, Skylar developed an appreciation for service, resilience, and giving back—values that continue to guide both professional pursuits and a lifelong commitment to helping others. Skylar is also the handler of a service dog in training, Fisher, offering a unique and personal perspective on the powerful role that service dogs enhance independence and improves quality of life for individuals. 

Rebecca Sloan

Therapy Dog Coordinator

Rebecca and her therapy dog Birdie are 4 Paws 2 Freedom 2026 graduates. Rebecca brings to 4P2F more than 30 years of experience working in public service in the Sacramento region and a unique perspective on the increasing challenges associated with providing essential services. Her work includes communications, engagement, public policy, and public administration including school, fire, and other special districts to cities, counties, and the state government.

Birdie and Rebecca bring their joy together in expanding the impacts and benefits of therapy dog interactions in the community.
