Happy Birthday to the heart behind Otis & Pearly. 🤍
Around here, she goes by Trace, Ms. Minnow…and probably a few other names depending on the day. But behind every one of them is a woman with a work ethic that is truly unmatched.
Trace grew up with agriculture in her blood and with a deep understanding of what it means to work hard, care for animals, and help feed the families of America. Today, that same heart has found its way into Otis & Pearly — only now, she gets to help feed the animals we call family too.
She puts her whole heart into what she does. The long days, the dirty work, the early mornings, the late nights, the million little things no one ever sees — she does it all because she genuinely cares. About the animals. About the quality of what we put into their bodies. About the people who trust us with their pets. About doing things the right way, even when the right way is the harder way.
Otis & Pearly simply would not be what it is without her passion, her grit, and the enormous heart behind it all.
So today, we get to celebrate her.
Happy Birthday, Trace. 🤍 We hope you know just how loved, appreciated, and important you are — to this little business, to the animals you work so hard for, and to all of us lucky enough to know you.
