Hello! My name is Jenna and I’m a Veterinary Technician at Senoia Animal Hospital. I am originally from Michigan (Go Spartans!) but I have been in Georgia for 4 years. As long as I can remember I have had a large love for animals especially Dachshunds! When I’m not working, I am spending time with my Bloodhound Georgia, my Black Lab Maxwell, and my 4 cats Milo, Reign, Storm and Meru.

Hi there! My name is Kaitlin. I’m a Veterinary Technician at Senoia Animal Hospital. Every since I can remember I have loved animals! My family has always had pets, they were rescues and very much a part of the family. Since 2017, I have now been able to show my love for animals every single day and be in a career that I have always dreamed to be apart of. I currently have three dogs – Cooper, Rin and Penelope and 1 cat named Opie. When I am not working, I enjoy going to the beach, lake and spending time with friends and family.

My name is McKenna and I started at Senoia Animal Hospital in October of 2022. I’ve never felt more welcomed into such a small, yet passionate group of people who love animals as much as I do. I’ve been in the veterinary field for 4 years and am currently on track to becoming a certified veterinary technician. My favorite aspect of working in vet med is that there’s always something new to learn and always things to get better at. This career choice never gets boring. I have 3 cats named Neville, Noah and Allie that I love dearly. When I’m not working I enjoy kayaking, spending time with my family, and traveling.

Hi everyone! I’m Hollie. I started off job shadowing at Senoia Animal Hospital in 2020 during Covid and have found a million reasons to never leave. During my time here, you may have seen me caring for our boarding guests in the kennel, assisting our veterinarians as a vet assistant, or developing my skills as a vet tech. I'm now expanding my knowledge in this field at Lincoln Memorial University – College of Veterinary Medicine where I will graduate with my Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 4 years! When I’m home on breaks, I look forward to returning to Senoia where I hope to meet and care for your furry friends, offering them the best care with a familiar face!

Hello! My name is Erika and I am a vet tech here at Senoia Animal Hospital. Starting with a little backstory, anyone who knew me growing up always knew I had a passion for working with animals or knew that I would one day do so. I started back in 2017 as a kennel technician and worked my way up from there. Working at a boarding facility, I was connected with a vet tech that sparked an interest in being one. I wanted to expand my knowledge and be able to look back and be proud of where I came from. I have been a technician for 5 years now and all I can say is wow! I learn something new every day!

I have been a member of the Senoia Animal Hospital team since 2016. However, I started working full time in 2017 as an assistant and then a veterinary technician after graduating from Southern Adventist University with a Bachelor in Biology. In the next few years, I plan on getting Associates in Veterinary Technology. I enjoy all aspects of veterinary medicine and aspire to learn as much as I can in the field. Outside of work I enjoy reading, horseback riding, baking and traveling.

Hey! My name is Aubrey. I have been working at Senoia Animal Hospital for 7 months now in the pet resort. I love working with animals! Oh and tell your cat or dog I said ‘pspspsps’.

My name is Chloe and I have been working at Senoia Animal Hospital since September of 2021. I have always known I wanted to work with animals and working here made that dream come true. My main goal is to ensure that all of the animals we care for are comfortable and loved like they’re family. While working here I adopted my dog, Simon. He was a regular in the pet resort and when he needed a home, I was more than happy to offer him mine.

I came to Georgia from Southern Indiana in the spring of 2008. I am a mix of Poodle, Maltese and Pekinese. When I am not at work, I enjoy riding around town with my head out of the car window, going for walks and hanging out with my mom.

Hi! I’m Tilta. I know some of you must be wondering how I got my name. Well, one day I was roaming the streets of Brooks looking for my next meal when I was hit by a car. Thankfully, someone saw me, picked me up off the road and brought me to Senoia Animal Hospital. They nursed me back to health and named me Tilta Whirl because I was left with a lovely head tilt from my accident. Once set free, I fit in with everyone else working here and became the official greeter at Senoia Animal Hospital. You will often find me sitting up on the front counter greeting people and their pets or sleeping on the couch in my office. I also enjoy helping the girls up front answer phones and schedule appointments. I am so happy to call Senoia Animal Hospital my home.

Hi! I’m BooBoo. I’m the matriarch here at Senoia Animal Hospital. I’ve been working here since 2017 and have enjoyed meeting many of you. You will most often find me lounging on the couch, snacking or sitting up front supervising the client service specialists. In my spare time, I enjoy sleeping….a lot.
