Tara joined the VCA family in October 2019. Having about two years in the industry, her experience and dedication to the animal field was great for our practice. Tara has always had a passion for animals. Becoming a veterinary assistant only strengthened her love for them. Tara is thankful every day that VCA gave her the opportunity to grow and learn more about these interesting animals. She has a soft spot for bully breeds and German shepherds; however, still gives the same love to all. She cannot wait to further her knowledge using the resources VCA is able to provide her. Tara currently owns and cares for three dogs: Sasha (boxer/pit bull mix born in 2019), Hazel (a chocolate Lab born in 2019) and Dusty (a puggle born in 2009). Her main man, Morty, is her chinchilla (born in 2012).
