Hello! My name is Kelly! I started my job at VCA Pahle in 2020 and am very happy with what I do and who I work with! One of my favorite parts of the job is trimming nails. If your dog needs a nail trim, and I am working that day, I promise you they will be beautiful! My most favorite part of the job is making sure the animals that are staying for the day are extra comfy. I know the owners are nervous leaving them for the day or even for a couple hours so I love to make sure they are comfy and try to make the animals at ease as much as possible.

I started working with animals in 2012 working at a doggy day care for four years. Then went on to get my veterinary assistant degree. I went to For Pets Sake Animal Clinic for a year for my externship. After, I then worked at an emergency hospital for a couple years and decided the small animal clinics were for me. I started working in the small animal clinics in 2018 and started at VCA in 2020. I have three dogs: a mini dachshund named Kevin, a rottweiler named Bear, and a German shepherd named Kala. In my free time I love to color, spend time with my husband while fishing (especially salmon fishing), go hiking with our dogs at the park, and nap.
