Jen is an Ottawa gal, and has always been an animal aficionado. Jens’ family always had a variety of pets at home (including several strays/rescues) and she was known to be more “in tune” with animals than her own toys!  Jen graduated with a Diploma in Equine Studies, and after also working some non animal jobs (What was she thinking?!), she became a Veterinary Technician in 2007 after graduating with Honours from Algonquin College in Ottawa, ON.

Jen has experience working in various veterinary clinics, pet stores, a dog boarding facility, animal education programs, and a bird rehabilitation center!

Vet Tech Pet Services was founded in 2010 by Jen, who wanted to expand her animal knowledge and experience and recognized the increased need for in-home pet care services. She brings not only a passion for animals but also a desire for humane and quality animal care to the business.

As a Registered Veterinary Technician and life long Pet Owner, Jen offers personal and quality care to all Vet Tech Pet Services clients and their pets.

Jen shares a home with her family, 3 children, foster pets, and is “owned” by multiple small animals (Rats Rule!)
