Kylie Bent
Hospital Manager

Kylie joined VCA Magnolia in 2020. She took over the hospital manager position in 2022 after a couple years as client service representative. She values the Magnolia community and strives to best serve it. Kylie grew up in rural Northern California and graduated with bachelor's degree in social work in 2014. She moved to Bellingham and worked in the local foster care system thereafter. Kylie was looking to find a different outlet to help people, and found her way to the hospital.

Kylie knows that pet owners are the best advocate for their pets and strives to ensure that each pet is getting the care that they need. She values open communication and problem solving with both pet owners and the hospital team to maintain a high standard of care for our patients.

Kylie shares her home in Seattle with her partner and one spoiled gray cat, Dr. Jekyl, although he is known to go by many names. When not at the hospital, Kylie enjoys keeping active with group fitness classes including yoga, and going snowboarding in the winter. Kylie is a fan of experiencing new and fun food around Seattle, or whatever she can cook up at home.
