Veterinary Assistant

Vanessa

Vanessa joined our team in 2026 after previously working at a dog daycare, where she further developed her passion for animal care. She is currently pursuing a bachelor’s degree in Biology and hopes to attend veterinary school in the future.

One of Vanessa’s favorite parts of working in veterinary medicine is helping patients feel comfortable, safe, and cared for during their visits. She also enjoys educating pet owners about their pets’ health to give them a better understanding of how to care for them at home. 

Outside of work and school, Vanessa enjoys reading, going on walks, working out at the gym, playing hockey and spending quality time with friends and family.
