Elise joined our team in 2025 and brings several years of prior animal care experience. Growing up with all kinds of pets, she developed a lifelong passion for animals at an early age. Since the age of 15, Elise has worked at multiple animal hospitals, gaining valuable hands-on experience caring for pets and supporting their families.

Two of Elise’s favorite parts of her job are creating paw and nose prints for euthanasia patients—a cherished keepsake that helps families remember their beloved pets—and, of course, meeting all of the adorable animals that come through our doors.

At home, Elise has 4 cats, Leo, Louie, Atlas, and Krios, as well as a leopard gecko named Wonton.

Outside of work, Elise enjoys reading, drawing, painting, and exploring all kinds of creative crafts. She also loves binge-watching TV shows and going to the movies with her boyfriend. Looking ahead, Elise hopes to further her career by becoming a Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT).
