Samantha has been in the veterinary field for 15 years, with that many years under her wings, she's done it all from kennel attendant to surgical assistant and beyond!  She has a strong passion for animals, cats being her favorite. She will be the first person to greet you at the desk and will most likely recognize your voice over the phone before you even say who you are! She is the proud mother of one dog and seven cats! 

Gina started with us in the spring of 2019. She plans to attend a veterinary technician program by the end of 2020 so she can work on becoming a licensed veterinary technician. She has one cat of her own, a chubby boy named Percy. She works hard to make every pet feel comfortable when they're here for a visit and will always have a treat or hug ready for your furry friend!  

Mary started out as a volunteer through a local 4H program, and well, she never left! She officially joined our team in 2020! She is a joy to be around and LOVES to love everyone's pet! 

What can we say about Willy? He was a stray cat living outside the building before IVT took over. He decided he wanted a 'taste of the good life' not long after the new owners moved in! Now he spends most of his time sitting at the front desk, sleeping in his comfy bed, doing a 'security sweep' around the building, or stealing someone's food.
Yes, he is very chubby, and yes, he has been on a diet, and no, it isn't working very well. 
Sometimes he can be a little 'sassy' and swat you away if you try to pet him, so please be mindful of his purrsonal space.
