First and foremost our goal is to help make pet ownership as easy as it can be for you! At Skilos we simply want to help you find solutions to the issues that come up with everyday pet ownership so you can be the pet owner you want to be! We know there is an overload of information out there so let us sift through it all so you can focus on having fun with your pet!!
The Skilos family, quite literally a family, consists of: owners Judy & Jerry Kurscheidt, Director of Operations Jerad Wagner and Director of Marketing Zachary Dewitt. When you visit our store located on Milwaukee’s Eastside, you will likely meet Jerad and/or Zach as they are in-store on a daily basis while Judy and Jerry serve in advisory roles.
Judy, aka Mom, has been in the pet industry for almost 30 years and has served companies in multiple capacities. She began her foray into the pet industry as an executive administrative assistant but quickly proved capable of handling larger responsibilities. Since her first role she has held titles such as National Sales Manager and International Sales Manager. It has been her dream while raising her two sons, Jerad & Zach, that she would someday be able to open her own family pet store. Jerad and Zach are incredibly grateful to have this opportunity to help make their mother’s dream come true!
During your in-store experience you may have the pleasure of meeting Zach's dog, Franklin! Franklin is an all black German Shepherd and the whole reason our family decided to embark on this adventure!
We can't wait to meet you and your pets at Skilos, A Family Pet Store!!
