Receptionists

Kelly Miller

Kelly is our office manager and well known to most of our clients.  When she isn’t slaving away over a hot telephone, Kelly enjoys 4 wheeling with her husband Tim and their dog Buddy. The whole family (Buddy included) enjoys hiking, fishing, swimming and skiing, although Buddy has a little trouble with the skiing. 

Leslie Ervin

Leslie  is an enthusiastic 49rs fan and the proud owner of a signed and framed Jerry Rice jersey.  Leslie has also worked in the tasting room at Sierra Vista Winery on Sundays, so if you seek wine recommendations or want to discuss sports, Leslie is the person to see.  And, she can also assist with your pet health concerns.  

Paula Bennett

In addition to working in our office, Paula is the preschool director at her church.  At home, Paula takes care of her two daughters, one husband, one Labrador Retriever, one cat and one rabbit, as well as unnamed chickens, pheasants, quail, pigeons, and turkeys.  A busy person. Paula grew up in the Placerville area and is a graduate of El Dorado High School. 

Tanya Jukes

Tanya is our newest receptionist and remarkably calm under pressure. This may be because she is also a volunteer fire fighter with experience in far more stressful situations than we usually experience in the animal hospital. Tanya currently works for us three days a week and Randall’s Woodworking, a local cabinet shop, the rest of the week. If you need your pet vaccinated, a fire extinguished, or your kitchen remodeled, Tanya is the person to see.
