Brittanie

Brittanie

Practice Manager / Licensed Veterinary Technician

Brittanie graduated Veterinary Management School in October 2023 and is now a certified Veterinary Practice Manager. Like her colleagues, Brittanie got into the veterinary field because she loves animals and wanted a career that would enable her to be around them every day. She loves what she does so much, that she never plans on leaving the industry – it’s retirement or bust for her!

While she’s been working in the industry for more than a decade, Brittanie officially completed the veterinary technician program in 2017. She joined All About Animals Veterinary Services in June of 2022 and has quickly become an integral, trusted and well-liked member of the team.

At home, Brittanie enjoys spending time with her husband and their two boys. Their fur family consists of three dogs and two cats. In her spare time, Brittanie likes to give back through volunteer and service work. She is active in her church and regularly assists with the children’s program.

Kendra

Kendra

Licensed Veterinary Technician

When Kendra was younger, the family veterinarian would let her assist with her pets during vet visits, whether it was helping with restraint, or allowing her to walk back into the kennels to pick them up after they had undergone a procedure. This fostered an interest in animal care and inspired Kendra to pursue a career in veterinary medicine.

In 2013, Kendra graduated from International Business College with an associate degree in Animal Science. Following this, she moved from Indiana to Bowdon, Georgia to finish her degree, complete her externship, and officially earn her LVT. She then spent some time at an animal shelter before joining the All About Animals team in March of 2024. Professionally, she has a special interest in surgery.

At home, Kendra lives with her husband and three beautiful boys. She also has several pets, including two dogs (Ranger and Athena), two cats (Kiki and Boo), and four ball pythons (September, Hisstia, Po, and Thane). In her spare time, Kendra enjoys soaking up the sun, playing Dungeons and Dragons, traveling, and spending time with friends and family.

Deidra

Deidra

Receptionist / CSR

As a child, Deidra used to drive her parents crazy with all of the stray animals she wanted to take in. She’s had a passion for pet care ever since she was a little girl! Now, Deidra is thrilled to jump headfirst into veterinary care as a member of the reception team here at All About Animals Veterinary Services.

Deidra is a native of Carrollton and joined the hospital family in July of 2019. Her favorite part of the job is getting to meet new animal owners on a daily basis—she never gets tired of seeing the special relationships between pets and owners up close!

When she’s not at work, Deidra enjoys staying active in her church and spending quality time with family. She and her husband, Erick, have two children: a daughter, Gracie, and a son named Charlie.

Chris

Chris

Veterinary Receptionist / CSR

Upon returning home from the US NAVY, Chris continued to serve the Carroll County community, when he began working as a veterinary assistant in 1999. Throughout his decades-long career, Chris has worn many hats, from kennel assistant to practice management, and just about everything in between.

Chris joined the All About Animals Veterinary Services team in September of 2023. Professionally, he enjoys puzzles and problem solving. Helping those who cannot help themselves is very rewarding. In his free time, Chris likes to grill food, or unplug from the digital world and go kayaking.

Destiny

Destiny

Certified Lead Veterinary Assistant

Having grown up on a farm with plenty of livestock, there has always been a special place in Destiny’s heart for animals. Inspired by her desire to help her own four-legged friends live longer, Destiny knew at a young age that she wanted to work in vet med. In her role as Lead Assistant here at All About Animals, Destiny is one step closer to her goal of one day becoming a vet, and she’s loving every moment!

Despite knowing deep down that she wanted to work with animals, Destiny initially decided to pursue a career in obstetrics and gynecology. It didn’t take long, however, for her heart to draw her back to her first love: animals. Other than seeing sweet pet faces all day, Destiny’s favorite part of the job is venipuncture, more specifically jugular draws, as it is an incredibly challenging skill and requires extra focus. She also enjoys performing nail trims.

In addition to all the pets she cares for at the clinic, Destiny has two fur-babies of her own: a quirky girl named Dottie, who thinks she’s a human, and a three-legged dog named Nellie, who is the most energetic girl you’ll ever meet! These sweet rescue pups are Destiny’s whole world, and she doesn’t know what she’d do without them.

Natalie

Natalie

Certified Lead Veterinary Assistant

For as long as she can remember, Natalie knew that she was destined to work with animals. Even as a small child, there are countless pictures of her holding and interacting with any and all animals she could get her hands on. Over the years, Natalie has owned just about every species of animal allowable in GA, from snakes and lizards to birds and small mammals. It came as no surprise, then, that she would ultimately pursue a career in the veterinary field!

Natalie’s journey began at another nearby animal clinic, where she learned many useful things and gained invaluable knowledge. She joined the All About Animals team in early 2023 and has quickly fit right in as if she’s been here for years. In her role as veterinary assistant, Natalie relishes the opportunity to help our patients become healthier. Professionally, she has an affinity for blood draws and IV catheter placements.

At home, Natalie currently has three dogs of her own: Atlas, Athens, and Ella, all of whom required some form of rehabilitation when they were first adopted. Ella was dropped off at Natalie’s old clinic with an injured leg at just six weeks old. The former owners didn’t want to care for her anymore and were going to euthanize, but fortunately Natalie was there to step in. Today, Ella is a fully functioning, energetic, and well-loved pup!

Melinda

Melinda

Veterinary Assistant

Growing up in Queens, NY, Melinda’s house was always filled with animals – from dogs and cats, to birds, rabbits and the occasional chinchilla. As a result of this upbringing, Melinda’s interests have always revolved around animals in one way or another. It came as no surprise, then, that she’d end up pursuing a career that would allow her to work with animals for a living.

Melinda began working at a no-kill shelter at the age of just 16 years old. She stayed there for 17 years, until budget cuts closed them down. From there, she moved onto an animal hospital where she remained for another 10 years before relocating to Georgia. In April of 2022, Melinda joined the All About Animals team. If her past tenures are any indicator, the hope is she’ll stay here for many years to come!

Professionally, Melinda enjoys spending time with all the different breeds of dogs and cats we get to meet. She also loves learning new things and discovering how various medications can make a world of difference in both the length and quality of a pet’s life.

Outside of the clinic, Melinda and her husband call Carrollton their home, along with their dog Ruffles, two cats – Handsome and Little Man – and beta fish, Sushi. In her free time, Melinda enjoys hiking through state parks, traveling to new places, riding horses and taking Ruffles to the park.

Belle

Belle

Veterinary Assistant

Belle has always had a deep compassion for animals and an unquenchable desire to make a difference in the lives of as many of them as possible. This naturally led her to a career in veterinary medicine. She started out working in the kennels and has since worked her way up to the role of veterinary assistant here at All About Animals Veterinary Services.

Outside of work, Belle is happily engaged with two bonus children. Her animal family consists of three dogs and a handful of chickens. When she’s not busy working and learning new things, Belle enjoys going to concerts and traveling.

Katie

Katie

Veterinary Assistant

A lifelong horse girl at heart, Katie’s interest in veterinary medicine was sparked a few years ago when she witnessed firsthand how intentional and caring her vet was in treating her injured horse, Apollo. Having been included in every step of the recovery process, Katie discovered how exciting being behind the scenes was and decided to pursue the opportunity to be part of a veterinary care team herself.

Not surprisingly, Katie was originally interested in equine practice, which led her to shadow her horse’s vet for a while. After gaining some hands-on experience, however, Katie made the switch to small animal medicine and joined the All About Animals Veterinary Services family in August of 2023. 

Outside of vet med, Katie’s other passion is aviation. She is currently a student pilot working on her private pilot certificate and would ultimately love to pursue a career in either the Air Force or as a corporate airline pilot. In what little free time she has, you will usually find Katie spending it outdoors.
