Missy Manlove, BS, RVT, CVPM
Practice Manager
BS, RVT, CVPM
I received my BS from UC Davis in 1998 in Avian Sciences (yes, bird science!). After working a few years in both exotic animal and specialty hospitals, I gained my Registered Veterinary Technician certification in 2001 and then became a Certified Veterinary Practice Manager in 2017. The majority of my career has been in Specialty Medicine, and Stitches has taught me to have a particular love for surgery! In my free time, you will find me camping with my family and my dog, Hunter, a giant Standard Poodle, who is my pride and joy!
Starr O’Dwyer
Doctor’s Assistant
I started in the veterinary field in 2019 as a receptionist and shortly later, became a Doctor’s Assistant in 2020. I have experience working in general practice, emergency/critical care and exotic animals. I found a love for this field over the years and plan on going for my RVT license in the future. Outside of work, I enjoy playing with my 2 Boxers (Axel and Roxy), my Havanese (Bentley), and spending time with friends and family.
Tierra Zampa, RVT
Registered Veterinary Technician
I have been in the veterinary field since 2013. I became a registered veterinary technician in 2020 and am interested in becoming a practice manager one day. Animals have always held a special place in my heart and I currently have two sweet Labrador boys at home. Outside of work, you can find me spending time in the gym, at the river, or in the desert.

Hi, my name is Arlena. My veterinary path all started in 2013 at a general practice hospital working as a receptionist while becoming a certified veterinary assistant. I have gained lots of experience as a surgical assistant, while realizing I have a passion for all things surgery! In my free time, I enjoy the outdoors with my loved ones and my dog, Maestro.

My passion for animals started at a young age and led me to a fulfilling career in veterinary medicine spanning over 20 years. I’ve gained valuable experience in both general practice and specialty clinics. When I’m not working, I enjoy spending quality time with my beloved pet and taking walks in the park.

I have 10 years of experience working with animals, beginning with dog sitting and then starting in general practice medicine. My roots are in pet boarding and dog walking, so making sure pets are happy and comfortable is my passion. I share my home with two dogs, a cat, reptiles, and occasionally a foster pet. My dream is to open my own pet boarding hotel! In my free time I enjoy playing pc games, crafting, and snacking!
