My name is Laurel and I have been working in animal hospitals since 1999. I have been around animals my whole life. I grew up on a sheep farm in Whitehall, NY. I moved down to New Paltz where I went to college and received a B.A. in Psychology. I have also taken some Veterinary Technology classes from SUNY Ulster. While I was attending New Paltz, I started my first animal hospital job and have been working in the field ever since. I have held every position from kennel help to veterinary assistant and now manage Rondout Valley Veterinary Associates. I love my work and being able to help pet owners and their furry family members live a happy and healthy life together.

Hello! My name is Shondelle. I have been an assistant at RVVA since September 2005. I am currently enrolled in a Veterinary Technician program. The veterinary field has been my dream since I was a kid, and I have been working/volunteering in it since I was a teenager. I do in-home pet sitting and have a personal love of bottle feeding kittens and puppies. It is always fun meeting new animals and getting to know their personalities. I look forward to meeting you and yours.
