Tara W.
Veterinary Assistant

What do you like to do for fun when you are not working?
Read! I am an avid reader and enjoy sitting outside when the weather is nice and reading a good mystery or suspense novel.

Dream vacation?
I would love to spend several weeks visiting the ancient and historical places around Ireland.

What are some causes you care about?
Animal welfare, wildlife protection, and the environment. I have a degree in environmental science from U of A and care deeply about reducing waste and protecting our natural resources. I am also passionate about protecting our few remaining natural spaces and important habitats for wildlife.

Do you have any pets of your own?
I am a crazy cat lady! I have seven rescue cats of all ages. But I also have a rescue pittie who loves her feline brothers and sisters.

What is your favorite part of the job?
Helping animals of course! But also putting clients' minds at ease when they are worried about their beloved family members. I love seeing clients laugh and smile and feel like their pets are in good hands.
