Happy Monday! We are finishing up our vet tech and assistant appreciation features today. Thank you to everyone who has shown these invaluable team members all the love this past week. We wouldn’t be able to care for such wonderful patients without you 🥰

Here we have Jasmine, with Pepper! Circling back to highlight our exotics, she is shown here with one of our top-seen patients: birds 🦜 Jasmine is another of our senior technicians, our resident cat-handling expert, and takes every appointment with ease between small animals, exotics, and surgeries. With an always-calm approach, and an endless supply of support, she’s our go-to person in times of chaos 😇

“I’ve worked in the animal care field for 5 years and even through the most stressful of times, I have loved this career. Being able to provide care and comfort to animals, even if it is just offering a treat, will always be my biggest joy and my reason for doing this. I graduated from University of Central Florida in 2019 with a Bachelor’s degree in Biology and have hopes of attending Vet School in the future. I have a little black cat, Nakia, that keeps me on my toes. In my free time I like to make art, try new recipes, relax and take naps.”

This might be the last day of the weekend, but it’s NOT the last vet tech feature we have 😉 And yes, while we are surpassing tech week, each tech and assistant deserve their own space of recognition, so we’re still going 🥰

On this fine Sunday, we have Felicity, our lead vet tech! Our most senior of techs, she is the one who makes the days flow, keeps the peace on the floor, and manages training and skill checks. And she can handle anything our patients might need, too, between small animal and exotic appointments, and being our surgery lead💪🏻

“Felicity is currently enrolled in the Veterinary Technician program at Penn Foster and is set to graduate at the end of 2026 with an Associate of Science degree. She plans to take the NVTE in early 2027.
She chose this career due to her love of animals and the opportunity it provides to help them live long, happy, and healthy lives. She enjoys the continuous learning and educational opportunities that veterinary medicine offers as the field evolves.
In her free time, Felicity enjoys spending time outdoors fishing, swimming, and visiting family. Occasionally, she becomes deeply focused on a new art project.”

We’re super serious about showing appreciation for our vet techs and assistants, and we are still going strong with features! Here we have Paige, who is also super serious about being the best all-around team member 👀 From kennel assistant, to receptionist, and now to vet assistant, Paige can do it all, and she loves putting her heart into everything she does 💕

“Hello! My name is Paige and I am a recent UF grad in Wildlife Ecology & Conservation. I have experience in zookeeping with bats and reptiles and I’m excited to dive deeper into the world of vet med! I’m super interested in animal behavior and love learning each pet’s unique personality and quirks. I plan to go to vet school and would love to focus in small animal, zoo, or shelter med.
In my free time, I enjoy reading, exploring the local nature spots, and spending time with my cat Teddy! (And buying him lots of toys he doesn’t care about.)”

10/23/2026

Happy beginning of the weekend! Thank you for all the love for our techs and assistants so far, we’ve still got a couple more features coming through the upcoming days ⭐️

Here we are yet again with one of our vet tech shout outs, Bettie, posing with our staff Leopard Gecko, Mango 🦎 While most of our techs work with both small animals and exotics, Bettie has a fondness for working with Dr. Thomas on everything avian, reptile, and other mammals. She plays a big part in the care of our exotic patients!

“I’ve always known that I wanted to work with animals. Caring for them has never felt like just a career choice, but a passion and the most rewarding path I could imagine. My journey in veterinary medicine began with a veterinary assisting program in high school in Naples, which led me to begin working in the field.
I am currently pursuing my Bachelor’s degree in Zoology at the University of Florida, with hopes of attending veterinary school in the future. I have two cats, Dutchie and Cashew. Outside of work and school, I love being outdoors, gardening, paddleboarding, and drawing.”

10/22/2026

Vet tech week may be close to ending, but our features are still going strong! Our next victim (…I mean completely willing participant) is Tiara! She is one of our senior technicians, always loving on our cat, dog, and bunny patients, as seen here with Mr. Butts 🐰 who came in to get established and receive his RHDV vaccine.

“I’ve been working in veterinary medicine for 7 years and have always had a passion for animals and caring for them. I grew up in West Virginia and have called Florida home for about 9 years. Outside of work, I enjoy playing video games, bored games, and spending time with my partner and our dogs. I’m grateful to have a career that allows me to do what I’ve always loved—working with and helping animals.”

10/21/2026

Time for another vet tech week feature, and this time we’ve got Jasper showing off with Hazel who is here for a day stay! Jasper is the other half of our kennel assistant duo, and he has a particular fondness for exotics. Ensuring top care for your cats and dogs that board with us is his highest priority 🐾 He is also our in-house creativity expert and artist! 🎨

“I moved to Gainesville with the intention of getting an associates degree to become a Zookeeper. After graduating, I found that while I love working with animals, zookeeping wasn’t quite right for me. I changed career paths into Veterinarian assisting, and I fell in love with it instantly! I am so excited to be learning about assisting the vets with cats and dogs, as well as exotics such as birds and reptiles! It’s truly the best outcome of my degree and desire to help animals.
In my downtime, I care for my cat Moo, and my lizard Pancake. I enjoy going on nature walks, to farmers markets, and playing video games. I do many forms of artwork as well such as ceramics, textiles and digital sketches and occasionally when I have time, I sell at art markets.”
