Celebrating Natalia this afternoon!

Natalia has loved animals since she was very young and has been working with them for as long as she can remember. Their care, health, and well-being have always been a top priority in her life. She views animals as family, not just as pets, and believes every animal deserves kindness, compassion, and respect. She values the unbreakable bond between humans and animals, built on trust, love, and loyalty. Her passion for animals continues to inspire her every day, and she takes pride in making a positive difference in their lives.

Outside of work, Natalia runs a horse boarding facility, allowing her to spend even more time doing what she loves. She enjoys trail riding with her horses, traveling, taking nature walks with her pets, spending time at the lake house, and riding ATVs and UTVs. Natalia is also a caregiver to her grandparents and cherishes spending quality time with her family, friends and boyfriend. Whether she is caring for animals or loved ones, compassion and dedication are a big part of who she is. She feels fortunate to turn her lifelong passion for animals into something she can dedicate herself to both professionally and personally.

Natalia has 6 dogs, 1 bird, 6 horses, 2 donkeys 2 goats, 1 sheep, 1 pig, and 4 barn cats

On our last day of celebrating our amazing employees/tech week, for our first feature, we bring you Peyton.

Peyton has been working here at Willowood Acres for almost 4 years now, starting at working in kennels to now working as a Veterinary Assistant. She is currently at Oakland University majoring in Biology with a concentration in Pre-veterinary medicine, graduating this April and hoping to continue her education into Veterinary school. She loves being able to learn and grow so much at the clinic, and also care for all the patients we see. Outside of work, she loves to travel to national parks with family and her boyfriend Josh, her latest trip being to Pictured Rocks! Her furry pets at home include Toby and Hutch, who are her constant shadows while at home!

Celebrating Lakin this afternoon for Tech Week!!

Lakin has an affinity for our more challenging patients and seems to be a calming presence for those pets who are scared at the doctors. She is also the main person to do the pawprints for owners at the end of life appointments for your beloved pets. She loves being able to provide keepsakes for owners and they are all created with such love. When she isn't working, she enjoys being out in nature and creating jewelry and art with animal bones she ethically sources from nature. She shares her life with her boyfriend, Shane, her cat, her dog, and her 5 horses. Any free time she has she can be caught reading...this girl always carries a book with her!

Back to Tech Week Features!!

This morning we feature Kyla!! ā¤ļø

I've been working at the clinic for 6 years now. I'm currently in school working towards becoming a LVT. I love the connections I've made with the clients and patients that I've had the pleasure of working with over the years. I currently have one dog of my own: Drako. When I’m not at work I love spending time with my family especially my nieces (aka my little people) and my friends.

Our afternoon feature for Technician Week celebrates Lisa, our Receptionist.

Now, you might be wondering why Lisa qualifies to be featured during Tech Week.

Lisa has been in the Veterinary field for over 37 years, working most of that time as a Technician.

She started as a Receptionist, but when she was in the back taking care of the animals more than she was up front, her employer said "GO TO SCHOOL", so she did. She graduated in 1992 from Tech School with a degree in Veterinary Technology. She has worked for General Practice, Emergency, Cat Only, Walk In Clinics, Internal Medicine Specialty, and Surgical Specialty clinics over her career.

A life changing dog bite suffered in 2014 while on the job ended her Tech career. So in order to stay in the field she loves, she is now running the front desk.

When she is not working at the clinic, she heads up a non-profit organization:
Hope's Reach Equine Rescue, which provides euthanasia and aftercare assistance to horse owners who cannot afford to euthanize their horse.

She shares her life with her 3 cats; Fiona, Olive, and Misty and her 5 horses; Berrybey, Athena, Tyrion, Poppy, and Emmett, and of course, her daughter, Lakin, whom you all know and love!

On our second day/first feature of technician week, we are celebrating Kristin!

Kristin grew up knowing she had a love and passion for animals that took her path to Wayne County Community College in 2006. She enjoyed learning about the intricacies and technical side of caring for animals during the two year program. After passing state and national exams to officially become an LVT, that path curved to Willowood Acres in 2008. Since then, Kristin has enjoyed putting that passion and knowledge to good use helping as many animals as possible. During the time she's not at work, she enjoys spending time with her husband Jake, family and friends playing cards, watching sports, listening to music, eating great food and of course, cuddling with her cats O'Malley and Remi.

🐾Celebrating Erin for Veterinary Technician Week! 🐾

Meet Erin, our dedicated Lead Veterinary Technician, who has been an invaluable part of our team for 21 years! ā¤ļø

Erin is passionate about helping animals and loves educating clients so they can provide the very best care for their furry family members. She also believes in the importance of lifelong learning and enjoys attending continuing education classes to expand her knowledge and stay up to date on the latest in veterinary medicine.

When she’s not at the clinic, Erin enjoys visiting the many zoos and spending time with her own furry family, which includes two dogs and two cats! 🐶🐱

We are so grateful for Erin’s dedication, knowledge, leadership, and the compassion she brings to our team every day. Thank you, Erin, for 21 wonderful years of caring for animals and the people who love them! šŸ’•
