My name is Crystal and I’m a credentialed veterinary technician/nurse (currently licensed in AZ, SC, and VA) I’ve been practicing vet med since 2008, with a special interest in Ophthalmology and Emergency critical care. I’m also a Fear Free Certified Professional, so I have extensive resources for handling your nervous or fearful fur kid(s).
I have wanted to branch out of the stressful clinic, and I can’t wait to offer my expertise and considerate care in the comfort of your home.
I am a dog mom of two crazy rescues pups. named Marshall age 5 and Poppy age 2.
