Meet Our Staff

Heather has always loved animals and became interested in the veterinary field as a child thanks to her father's copies of James Herriot's "All Creatures Great and Small" series. She graduated from UC Davis in 2007 with a BS in Animal Science and Management and began working at a feline specialty hospital as a technician assistant. Heather and her husband have a full house with their two dogs, Rose and The Doctor(Doc for short), and three cats: Cupid, Cassidy, and Mowgli.  Though she enjoys animals of all kinds, she has a special place in her heart for our feline friends.

Frances has always had a love for animals, but her true passion began when she started volunteering at the Folsom City Zoo Sanctuary during high school. Her interest and enthusiasm led her to become a Zookeeper, then further inspired her to become fascinated with veterinary medicine. She continues to find working in this field greatly rewarding and appreciates all members of the animal kingdom.  

Brooke has always had a passion for animals of all shapes and sizes. She began her furry friend journey 8 years ago when she started working in the grooming department at Petsmart, which later led her into the veterinary field. She spent her first years in an exotic animal clinic, which included working with birds of prey of all kinds, including bald eagles! She spends the rest of her time living life to the fullest with her beautiful german shepherd, Lyla Bear :)

Steffanie can always be found making new furry friends wherever she goes. As a proud fur-momma of 2 Cane Corsos, and growing up with Rottweilers, large breed dogs have a special spot in her heart. That’s not to say she doesn’t indulge in snuggles from the little ones and she loves kitty purrs. Every chance she gets, Steffanie sneaks a patient up to her front desk so you might hear a few barks or meows when she answers the phone.
