Meet the Veterinary Staff Who Cares for Your Beloved Pets

I am a Florida native and graduated Magna Cum Laude from the Veterinary Technician Program at Sanford Brown College in 2015. Here at Care Animal Hospital, I am the lead veterinary technician and have worked primarily in the general practice setting, but I also have experience in urgent care hospitals. In my free time, I enjoy doing artwork, doing outdoor adventures, and spending time with my children and the true love of my life, my Chorkie, Sami Bae.

Charlie moved to the Tampa Bay area in 2018. Charlie has been a veterinary technician since 2011. She's also worked in other parts of the animal world, such as pet sitting, farm work, pet boarding facilities, grooming salons, and dog training. She's grown up with all sorts of animals ranging from large equines to cats and dogs and also all types of reptiles and pocket pets. Her current pack of pets (lovingly called her Funny Farm) includes 7 dogs, 3 cats, 3 guinea pigs, a hedgehog, 2 ferrets, and fish. When not working with us, she is home with her fur kids and husband.

Office Manager

I have worked at Care Animal Hospital of Seminole for over 11 years and am the front office manager. I was born in Bath, Ohio, and graduated from Bowling Green State University with a social work degree, making working with clients and their pets a natural profession for me. Over the years, I have had numerous jobs, including owning three of my own businesses. My favorite title is "Gigi" as I have 8 grandchildren so there is never a quiet, dull moment to pick up a book these days, but I wouldn't have it any other way, nor trade it for all the free time in the world. I prioritize getting in 3 or 4 gym workouts a week so that I can keep up with all the energy of the little ones. Since I was a little girl, pets have always been a huge part of my life, and I can't imagine that ever-changing.
