Karina began her journey in veterinary medicine in 2021, bringing a deep passion for animals and a commitment to helping them. Growing up in Murrieta, Karina's love for pets started early with her first furry friend, a chihuahua named Lolo. She now shares her life with her beloved golden retriever, Ranger. What Karina loves most about her job is being part of the close-knit VCA family, where she gets to work alongside dedicated colleagues and interact with adorable pets every day.
