Meet Alyssa – Veterinary Technician with eight years in the veterinary field, Alyssa has dedicated her career to being the voice for the voiceless, standing up for the care and comfort of every animal who walks through the clinic doors. Her favorite part of the job is forming lasting connections with both clients and their beloved pets, creating bonds built on trust and compassion.

Alyssa has a special passion for client education and surgical care, where she combines empathy with skill to support families and their furry companions. At home, she shares her life with a lively crew of four dogs and three cats, each with a personality of their own.

Outside of work, Alyssa enjoys nothing more than spending time with her two boys and her family, filling her days with laughter, love, and meaningful moments. Her favorite animal? The Highland cow—gentle, fuzzy, and full of charm.

The best advice she’s ever received? “Never give up—no matter how much you want to. It will be worth it in the end.” One thing she wishes clients knew: this job isn’t just playful puppies and cuddly kittens. Some days, it takes everything you have to walk into an exam room when you already know what news you’ll have to deliver.

If Alyssa weren’t in veterinary medicine, you’d probably find her in the most magical place on earth—working at Disneyworld. Until then, she happily unwinds by watching Disney movies, letting a little pixie dust lighten the day.
