Okay everyone… drumroll please! 🥁💚
We’re kicking off our Meet the Team series, and who better to start with than the woman behind Urgent Tails?
Meet our owner and veterinarian, Dr. Katie Kelley!
Hi everyone! I’m Dr. Katie Kelley, the veterinarian behind Urgent Tails. I figured it was time to introduce myself!
I’ve spent years working in emergency veterinary medicine. I love what I do, but I’ve seen how frustrating it can be when your pet is sick, your regular vet can’t get you in, and your only option is a long wait at the ER.
I wanted to give our community another place to turn. That’s where the idea for Urgent Tails started, and now it’s becoming a real place that I can’t wait to welcome you into.
Outside of work, I’m a proud auntie and love baking sourdough. I’m also very likely to have an entire conversation with your pet during their visit. Hopefully they’ll have something nice to say back. 😂
I also want you to know about Finn. ❤️ He was my heart dog, and I lost him in December 2025. It’s hard knowing he won’t be here for this chapter, but there will always be a piece of him at Urgent Tails.
Loving him, worrying about him, and having to say goodbye are things I carry with me when I’m caring for someone else’s pet. I know how much trust it takes to put your best friend in our hands.
Thank you to everyone who has followed along, shared our posts, or sent a kind message. I’m so grateful for the support already, and I can’t wait to meet you and your pets!
💚 Dr. Kelley
