Annie, Veterinary Assistant

I am a current student at Kansas State and I plan to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. I started at an emergency vet hospital where I was able to assist in surgery on a lion! In my free time, I love to play volleyball, swing dance, and DIY anything you could think of. You'll often times see me with my dog, June, who loves to make new friends and shred her toys.

Tayler, Veterinary Assistant

Tayler is originally from a small town in SE MO called Portageville. I moved to Springfield and attended MSU until 2021 when I graduated with a Bachelors in Animal Sciences. I have 2 australian shepherds - Sophie and Oliver. In my free time I enjoy indoor rock climbing, and going to the gym.

In her free time she enjoys gardening, going on hikes, reading and doing arts and crafts.

Crook & Chase, Clinic Cats

The friendly furry faces that greet you at Animal Doctor are Crook and Chase. These two pranksters may look similar, but they have very distinct personalities. Crook is the “evil twin” and is so named after the crook in his tail from previous trauma. Chase is his sweet, mischievous, more svelte brother. Crook and Chase were adopted by the Animal Doctor family in 2008 as sick kittens that stole a place in our hearts. You can often see them hard at work around the clinic!
