Isabella, Veterinary Technician
In the veterinary field since 2021, Isabella brings compassion, humor, and a love for all creatures great and small. She’s done it all — from large animal calls to specialty, emergency, and now general practice for the last two years.
Horses have been part of her life since before she could walk, and growing up surrounded by farm animals, cats, and dogs made caring for animals her natural path.
This winter, Isabella heads back to school to pursue a degree in Animal Science with a focus on large animals — because you can take the girl out of the barn, but you can’t take the barn out of the girl.
