Vanessa P

Vanessa P joined our team first as an intern and then as a veterinary assistant in early 2020. Vanessa has grown rapidly over the last few years and her thirst for learning, quick adaptation, and intelligence moved her rapidly into a position of Lead Assistant in our office. She was also our first non-veterinarian Fear Free Elite Professional and is responsible for overseeing our Fear Free practice certification! You might find her at the reception desk somedays as well. In her free time she likes to watch Netflix, enjoys wine, and likes to meditate with her 5 cats (Bo, Darwin, Shiloh, Leyona, Mandarina) and 3 fish (Poe, Francisco, and Arthur. She hopes to one day take all those skills and apply them as a veterinarian, unless she manages to land Rick Astley or Dua Lipa as her spouse!! (Vanessa is also our resident jokester here at My Neighborhood Vet)
