Hello there! My name is Vera and I currently work here at our Ballard location after moving from Alaska. I came from Alaska to pursue a hands-on career in veterinary medicine after working as a shelter attendant, a doggy daycare manager, and veterinary receptionist. My goal is to become a Veterinary Technician in the next three years. I currently live in Seattle with my 2 dogs -- Raine and Karma. Raine may look like a gargoyle, but she's a complete goofball. Karma lives up to her name with a polite sass. They are the best pups I could ever ask for. Fun Fact about me: My fist word was, "meow."
