I have been working in the veterinary field for 32 years and still love coming to work every day. My favorite part of the job is making our patients feel comfortable and, of course, any opportunity to snuggle puppies is always a bonus. I enjoy building relationships with our clients and treating every pet as if they were my own.

At home, I have a full house with four dogs and two cats. Outside of work, I enjoy staying active by running 5k races with my whippet, Zoom, who is always ready to race, and playing pickle ball. I have been married to my husband, Kevin, since 2008, and we enjoy spending time together staying active and enjoying our animals.

I feel very fortunate to have a career that combines my love of animals with the opportunity to help people and their pets every day.

Hello! My name is Kenzi. I’ve had roughly 6 years of experience in the veterinary field. From an early age, I knew I wanted to help out little furry friends. When it comes to our small animals I do like cats more but I still love our goofy dogs! Growing up. we always had animals in the home whether it be big dogs, small dogs, kitties, along with some goats and chickens here and there! At home, I have once cat named Hopper, he is a Velcro cat that is always be my side no matter where I am in the house. This has always been my dream job and I have been lucky enough to work at this wonderful clinic with the kindest doctors and most attentive staff. Being a veterinary assistant is more than the job, it’s providing the best care to all of your companions and enjoying the fulfilling process of insuring their health along the way.
