kaitlyn tackett, veterinary tech

Kaitlyn joined the team at Friendship Veterinary Center in November 2019, but has been around animals her entire life. She grew up working with cattle and showing livestock and has served as a pet sitter in the past. Kaitlyn enjoys getting to see all of the clients and their pets at the clinic. She has two dogs of her own — Zailey, a Golden Retriever, and Leroy, a Daschaund/Beagle/Chihuahua mix. She also calls two short hair tabby cats her roommates, Kyle and Kipp. Kaitlyn’s favorite animal is an elephant because of how entertaining they are.
