Savannah has been working in veterinary medicine since 2019, beginning her career at VCA Bay Area Animal Hospital in reception before becoming a pharmacy technician there. As her passion for patient care grew, she began cross-training with the veterinary assistants and discovered just how much she loved the hands-on side of veterinary medicine.
She later transferred to VCA University in Tempe, Arizona, where she fine-tuned her technical skills and received additional training in anesthesia and dentistry. After returning to the Bay Area, Savannah joined Marina Village Veterinary Integrative Practice, where she served as the Lead Technician and ran the surgery department. Her time there also allowed her to learn many holistic approaches to medicine.

Today, Savannah is the Veterinary Practice Manager at Cheshire Cat Clinic, a role she has truly enjoyed stepping into. She loves being able to support the team, help the clinic run smoothly, and continue creating a calm and welcoming environment for both patients and their people.
Her journey into veterinary medicine began with her oldest cat, who was extremely fearful during veterinary visits. Seeing how stressful those experiences could be inspired Savannah to pursue a career where she could help make veterinary visits less frightening for pets. Her goal has always been to do everything she can to keep patients calm, comfortable, and feeling safe—even during stressful moments.
Outside of the clinic, Savannah is completely devoted to her two cats and her pug, whom she loves more than words can describe. Her love for animals has been lifelong, and over the years she has also shared her home with hamsters, fish, snails, and frogs. We are so lucky to have Savannah helping lead the Cheshire Cat Clinic team and bringing her experience, compassion, and love for animals to everything she does!
