🖤 MEET ALEXA! 🖤

Alexa may be the newest member of our team, but she’s already found her place in our little veterinary family! She may be small, but she is definitely mighty!

Alexa is our resident crazy cat lady who may be quiet, but don’t let that fool you! When she does speak up, she has some of the best one-liners that catch us completely off guard and keep us laughing.

She is always keeping herself busy, looking for ways to help, and finding the next thing that needs to get done. Her eagerness to learn and willingness to jump in wherever she’s needed make her such a great addition to our team! Shes the oldest member of the team and turns 400 years old this year! Since she’s a vampire, we can count on her to be around with our team for many years to come!

Alexa, we’re so happy to have you as part of our crew! We can’t wait to watch you learn, grow, and continue to become an amazing vet tech!

HAPPY VET TECH WEEK!

💚 MEET HANNAH! 💚

Hannah is our staff baby. She is one of the hardest-working, most eager, and happiest people on our team. She never says no, is always willing to lend a helping hand, and approaches every opportunity to learn with so much enthusiasm.

This girl absorbs information like a SPONGE! Whether she’s learning a new skill, asking questions, or jumping in wherever she’s needed, Hannah is always looking for ways to grow and become better. Her work ethic, positive attitude, and willingness to learn are beyond impressive, and we couldn’t be prouder of the young woman and future veterinarian she is becoming.

And now for the bittersweet part… Hannah is heading off to veterinary school next year, and while we are SO incredibly excited for her and this next chapter, we are absolutely heartbroken that this will be our LAST Vet Tech Week with her as a vet tech.

Watching her grow, learn, and develop her skills has been such a privilege. We know she is going to do incredible things in veterinary medicine, but we’re selfishly going to miss having homegirl here every day!

The good news? We fully expect her to come back to us one day as a surgeon! And you better believe we’ll be cheering her on every step of the way until then!

Hannah, we love you SO much, and we are beyond thankful for the time we get to have you on our team. Thank you for your hard work, your eagerness to learn, your happy heart, and for always being someone we can count on. You are such a special part of our little veterinary family, and we cannot wait to see where this journey takes you.

We may be losing our staff baby for a little while, but we’re already looking forward to the day we get to call you Dr. Hannah Banana!

HAPPY VET TECH WEEK!

💜 MEET BENILDE! 💜

Beni is one of those people who has a heart that just keeps giving. Whether she’s caring for our patients, being a dedicated mom, or opening her home to dogs in need, she has a way of making the world around her a little better.

Beni has a huge heart for rescue and is actively involved in fostering dogs, giving them love, safety, and a chance at a better life. Her compassion for animals goes far beyond the workplace, and we love seeing the difference she makes for those who need it most!

When she’s not working or helping animals, you might find her out thrifting, hunting for hidden treasures, or putting her creativity to work on something fun. She’s incredibly creative and has a knack for bringing her own special touch to the things she does!

Her caring nature, compassion, and dedication are just a few of the many things that make her such a special part of our team. We are so thankful to have someone who gives so much of herself to both the people and animals in her life.

Tia Beni, thank you for the love, kindness, and heart you bring to our team every day. We are so grateful to have you as part of our veterinary family, and we hope you feel extra loved and appreciated this week!

HAPPY VET TECH WEEK!

💙 MEET ALLIE! 💙

Allie is one of our amazing vet techs, and we are so lucky to have her as part of our team!

When she’s not at work taking care of our patients, you can probably find her baking up something delicious for BridgeLaine Bakery or spending time with her husband and their very talented dogs.

Allie and her husband love competing with their dogs in all sorts of dog sports, including wall climbing, dock diving, and lure coursing! Clearly, her love for animals doesn’t stop when the workday ends.

We love having people on our team who bring their own unique passions, personalities, and love for animals into everything they do. Whether she’s caring for our patients, whipping up something sweet, or cheering her dogs on in her next competition, Allie brings a little something special wherever she goes!

Allie, we are SO thankful to have you on our team! Thank you for the time, care, and heart you put into what you do. We hope you know how much you are appreciated, not just this week, but all year long!

HAPPY VET TECH WEEK!

❤️ MEET LESLIE! ❤️

Leslie is our lead tech and a force to be reckoned with! She pours her heart and soul into animals of all kinds, and her passion for veterinary medicine is truly something special.

She LOVES teaching and helping others grow in this field, but she also absolutely loves learning, herself! I can’t even begin to tell you how many articles this girl sends me or how many questions she asks about bettering patient care. She is constantly looking for ways to learn more, do better, and improve the lives of the patients we are so fortunate to care for. That kind of dedication is something you just can’t teach. ❤️

Outside of her work with us, Leslie is also the director of Sit Happens Rescue, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit she started this year! And while the rescue may be new, Leslie certainly isn’t new to rescue work. She has been saving animals for as long as she can remember and previously served on the board of directors for another rescue organization.

Her hard work, compassion, drive to keep learning, and genuine love for animals are just a few of the many things that make Leslie so special. She gives so much of herself to this field, and the animals (and people!) around her are better because of it.

Leslie, our entire team and I are SO thankful for you and everything you do. We are beyond grateful to have you as part of our little family. You make a difference every single day, and we hope you know just how much you are appreciated!

HAPPY VET TECH WEEK!

🤪📱 WHACKY WEDNESDAY: THE CASE OF THE SELFIE 📱🤪

Before the boss goes on vacation, obviously the only responsible thing to do is… steal his phone and leave him a little surprise. 😂

Beni & Leslie decided Dr. McFadden needed a little reminder of what he was missing while he was away. So naturally, they took a selfie on his phone and hid it for him to find. 😈📸

The best part? He finally found it on his phone… ONE WEEK LATER. 😂😂

They told him it was just their way of making sure he didn’t miss us too much while he was enjoying his vacation. 🥹🤣

Mission accomplished. 🫡

Happy Whacky Wednesday from your favorite veterinary troublemakers! 🐾😂
