Victoria R.
Receptionist
I enjoy the unconditional love animals give and helping when others can’t. I have a Bachelor’s in Biology from Texas A&M International University. I have always enjoyed working around animals and people who put animals first. I enjoy helping our clients with their animal needs and love seeing them happy when our staff has helped their pets. I love to be outdoors, read, sew, bake and be with family. I have four spoiled fur babies that I love very much. Two dogs: Kelly and Daisy; two cats: Fea and Merlin. I also have a few birds 🙂

Janice H.
Receptionist
I love all animals. They are extended family members. I have rescued every fur baby that we have. After I graduated high school, I attended Boise State University. I was looking for a job in a small town, and then I accepted a job as a kennel tech, then I fell in love with working with animals because it is so fulfilling. I have worked as a kennel tech, assisted as a technician, and receptionist. I am involved with church and love to garden, travel, and work with senior citizens.
