Although she was born and raised in Florida, Kate Jenkins feels more at home in the mountains and snowy weather. Dr. Jenkins enjoyed eight years at Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, where she earned her Bachelor of Science and Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degrees. During her final year in veterinary school, she met the love of her life, Rodrigo Rosa. After graduation from veterinary school, they both moved to southern California to complete veterinary internships at a specialty practice, the Veterinary Medical and Surgical Group. A longing for the mountains and the snow brought them back to the northeast where they decided New Hampshire was the perfect place to call home. When she is not at VCA Daniel Webster Animal Hospital, Dr. Jenkins can be found on the trails with her Jack Russell Terrier mix, Biscuit and her Italian Greyhound mix, Twinkie. Always looking to spend more time in the woods and ready for a new challenge, Dr. Jenkins has taken her trail running to the next level, completing four ultramarathons in 2014 at the 50K, 50 mile, and 100 mile distances.
