Caitlyn

Registered Veterinary Technician
I grew up in London, Ontario where I always had a four-legged friend by my side. My passion and love for animals started at a young age and has only grown ever since. It has always been a goal of mine to have a career where I could work and care for animals. I graduated from the veterinary technician program at St. Clair college and became an RVT in 2020. In my spare time I love to spend time with all of my pets and my family and friends. I look forward to meeting you and giving your fur-babies the best care!
