You walk into your pet’s cancer center, and you are immediately greeted with your name and a warm smile. Your dog runs right to his favorite nurse for a snack, and you check him in without any concern. When he’s in with the nurse, the reception area is yours alone. It’s comfortable, with relaxing music and adorable portraits of current patients framed on the walls. You settle into your seat, grab a refreshment, hook up to Wi-Fi, and relax or get some work done while a team you trust administers your dog’s chemo treatment. Less than an hour after your arrival, your pup runs out to you, excited and safe. You chat with your dog’s oncologist, get a clear report of the appointment, and head out to enjoy the rest of your day.

Building meaningful connections with both pets and their owners is at the core of what we do. I find immense joy in fostering these important relationships, providing comfort and education, and becoming a trusted partner in your pet’s care.

Celebrating Milestones, Big and Small:

In the realm of veterinary oncology, every small victory is cause for celebration. Whether it’s a positive response to treatment, a day filled with tail wags, or simply a moment of shared warmth, these milestones are the building blocks of hope. As a veterinary nurse, I take pride in being there to celebrate with you in these moments and supporting pets and their families every step of the way.

One of the most rewarding aspects of being a veterinary nurse here at Treeline is witnessing the resilience of our patients and the unwavering love they receive from their families.
