Jillian

Meet Jillian! She grew up in Western Michigan, showing jumper horses. After graduating from high school, she moved to Ocala, Florida, where she trained horses at a large hunter-jumper barn. It was there that she found animals and veterinary medicine were her true passions. She started her career in small animal medicine and has been working in the veterinary industry ever since! Jillian joined the BVH family in 2015 and enjoys helping people and their pets live happy, healthy lives. Recently, Jillian completed her certification as a "Fear Free Veterinary Professional", which means she has undergone extensive training and education in ways to prevent and alleviate fear, anxiety, and stress in pets. In her free time, she enjoys taking long naps, watching movies and hiking with her husband Matt, and spending time with their two dogs, Mac and Roxy, and their cat, Hela. Jillian became a BLS and ALS Certified Rescuer in March 2022.
