Stacey

My name is Stacey. I’ve been in the pet industry since the day I was born, literally. I was general manager of Pet Lodge Pet Resort for years. I’ve always been in love with animals and I’m so excited to be at Pet Care Animal Hospital. The three doctors here are top notch, the best of the best. They are kind and caring and this is why I chose to be at this clinic. I have two daughters and an amazing husband. We love the outdoors. Especially the pool! You can catch my family and I swimming at our pool or at the lake with our dog. His name is Goonie and while he can be stubborn sometimes, he’s is the greatest gift to our family. We also have two cats, Grey and Presley. They complete our little family. 

Sydnie

Originally from Indian Rocks Beach, Florida, Sydnie recently made the exciting move to her husband’s hometown - Flowery Branch, Georgia. In their home, she shares a special bond with two adored cats, a playful rat, and a gecko. Apart from her passion for animals, she finds inspiration in photography, nature, reptiles, and cars. When she’s not working, you can usually find her at a racetrack or by the water! Sydnie looks forward to welcoming you and your beloved pets with a warm smile and caring hands!
