Ashley
Receptionist Ashley comes from four generations of Dawson Creek residents and has lived here her whole life. She had the opportunity of growing up around small and large animals as she spent most of her weekends hanging out at her aunt's farm. She got to hang out with all the livestock on the property and she absolutely loved it. Growing up, her family had a wonderful dog named Pepper but that did not stop her from bringing home every stray or injured animal, which she still does today. She started as a small animal receptionist in March of 2014 and loves every minute of it. She is now cross training as a large animal receptionist as well. Ashley especially enjoys working clients, meeting new people, and taking care of their furry family members. Ashley currently has 2 dogs, Sophie and Bruno, and 3 cats, Milo, Annie and Ivy. Outside of work Ashley enjoys spending time with family, camping and fishing. |

Cassidy
Receptionist Cassidy was born in Brooks AB, but moved to Dawson Creek at a young age. She grew up with several pets in her home, which initially fueled her love for animals. This encouraged her to volunteer at the local animal shelter, where she was able to appreciate animals differently. She did drift away from the animal world for a few years while venturing off to university, but she is happy to have found her way back. She is very excited to have the opportunity of joining the Dawson Creek Veterinary Clinic team, and to see where this journey takes her. In her spare time, Cassidy enjoys reading, hiking, and visiting with friends and family. |
