She has always had pets since an early age and developed a sense of nurturing them and she has had the pleasure of working with animals for the majority of her life.

There she was able to gain knowledge about animal behavior and participated in DART (Disaster Animal Response Team) of the Humane Society Of U.S. Through DART, she was about to assist with Katrina relief by helping with over 50 pets to be relocated from those devastated areas into a safer environment and to assist with reuniting some displaced pets with their families. Yami has also worked at the Orlando Humane Society for almost 12 years in a high volume spay and neuter clinic. Not only did she work with the animals, but she educated clients in benefits of spay and neuter, proper vaccination and prevention of parasites.

Susan Muncy
Clinic Director
​Susan joins the SNiP-it Team from Chattanooga, TN. She started her career in rescue & spay/neuter in 2005 when she started volunteering at The Humane Educational Society in Chattanooga. She created a dog walking program to ensure that each pet waiting for their forever home got attention. In 2006, she started as an office assistant at a brand new spay/neuter clinic - Wally's Friends. Her passion for spay/neuter pushed her into the position of Office Manager and Transport Coordinator. In 2015, she left to be a stay at home mom to her son, Emerson. Looking to get back involved with the mission, she accepted the position as Clinic Director at SNiP-it. Moving with her is a wonderful husband, sweet baby boy, 2 dogs "Zoey & Tiana", and a once feral cat "Frankie". She looks forward to helping pet overpopulation in Central Florida! In her free time, she loves spending time with her family, her and her husband always put on a light show at Christmas, and they are also excited to be close to Disney World!

How it all began....

It started in 2001.  One person, one vision, one animal at a time.  Founder Gloria Wade was determined to end pet homelessness and reduce animal overpopulation in Central Florida.  In 2002, the organization she founded (The Animal Welfare Alliance of Central Florida) was instrumental in convincing the commissioners of Seminole County to eliminate the practice of adopting out intact animals from the County Animal Shelter.  This in turn brought the benefits of spaying and neutering to the community’s attention.  From then to 2013,  with the help of her sister (Joan Frazier), the organization has supported many spay/neuter programs and assisted hundreds of pet owners in need.  

In 2014, the organization was re-named and re-structured to be more efficient and more effective. Today, under the name SNiP-it, we are still focused on the vision of assisting the residents of Central Florida with low cost, easy access spay/neuter options. While our name has changed, our mission has not!
