Stacie’s favorite part of being a CVT is helping animals through our S.A.I.N.T fund that otherwise might not get a second chance at a happy life.

Wendy, Certified Veterinary Technician - Wendy is a recent graduate from Bel-Rea Institute of Veterinary Technology.   Not only has she been a client of CVAH for many years, she did her internship prior to graduation with us.  She has been working at the hospital since September 2010.

Wendy is a loyal cat lover.  It is no surprise that she has two male cats named Moose who was nicknamed at the clinic as “Gentle Giant”, and Lion-O is his own superhero and a force to be reckoned with.  She also loves her parent’s fur child dog named Sirus.

Wendy chose to work with animals when her beloved cat Lion-O had a cat bite abscess and brought him to CVAH to be treated.  Not only was she impressed with the entire staff involved, she really loved taking care of him after his surgery and thought that she would love to work in this profession.  What Wendy likes most about working at CVAH are the stories of how an owner and beloved pet came to be a family.
