Tonya is officially our HR Manager here at the Ranch, but she truly is so much more! Tonya can wear, has worn, and does wear so many hats for our practice. Tonya started with us as an animal care associate in April 2013. Since then she has spent time working in the kennel, as a receptionist, veterinary assistant, medical team supervisor, and even organized and ran some of our puppy socialization classes. Tonya’s dedication to the practice, employees, and most importantly our clients gives her all the tools needed to now serve on our management team!

Outside of work, Tonya likes to spend time with her husband, Justin, and adult sons, Cole and Drew. Recently empty nesters, Tonya and Justin like to spend their new found freedom doing DIY home improvements. Her 2 dogs, Munchie and Otis and cat, Sid, just sit back and enjoy the view!
