🌟 Team Spotlight: Willow Burnes, DVM 🌟

If you’ve ever met Dr. Willow Burnes, you know her golden retriever energy. Willow brings warmth, joy, and deep compassion to everything she does, both with our patients and our team.

Originally born in the UK, raised in Australia, and having moved to BC as a teen, Dr. Burnes brings a uniquely global perspective (and a charming accent) to her veterinary work. She’s passionate about surgery, dentistry, and fear-free medicine, but what truly drives her is building long-term, trusting relationships with pets and the people who love them.

She loves following her patients through all stages of life, from first vaccines to senior care, and is known for making families feel truly supported every step of the way.

Outside of work, you’ll find her exploring the East Kootenays with her two dogs, Waffle and Noodle. Whether she’s hiking, skiing, riding horses, or just enjoying the Kimberley sunshine, Dr. Burnes brings the same heart and energy to life as she does to her work. 💛

We are so grateful to have her on our team, and in our lives.

One of our technicians found a deceased brown tabby cat on the highway by West View Road. It unfortunately does not have a microchip. If you or someone you know is missing a cat of this description please reach out to the clinic 💕

🚨 Heads up, pet parents!

We wanted to alert our community about an email scam that’s been circulating. These emails often look like they’re from a pet microchip registry and may even include accurate details about you and your pet (some chip databases are publicly searchable for lost pets). They claim your pet’s microchip is “expiring” and ask you to pay to renew it.

Please know this is not legitimate.

At Steeples Veterinary Clinic, we register microchips with EIDAP and the BC SPCA uses BC Pet Registry - both are reputable databases that do not require renewal payments like these scams suggest.

If you receive a suspicious email like this, please be cautious. And if you’re ever unsure, give us a call at (250) 489-3451. We’re always happy to help!

🐾 Stay safe out there!

Do you know your pet's vaccination schedule? 💉

Life is busy and sometimes things are forgotten, we get it! If it has been a while and you're not sure if your pet is up to date on their vaccinations we would be happy to help make sure they are protected.

🌟 Team Spotlight: Dr. Joselyn Reynolds, DVM 🌟

Meet the incredible Dr. Joselyn Reynolds, one of the newest members of our veterinary team! Dr. Reynolds joined Steeples in August 2024, and her infectious laugh, compassionate approach, and love for both her patients have made her an instant favorite.
Originally from Rossland, BC, Dr. Reynolds grew up spending summers on her grandparents’ dairy farm, which sparked her lifelong love of animals. That early connection evolved into a passion for veterinary medicine, especially the belief in One Health - the idea that animal, human, and environmental health are all connected.
Whether she’s helping a nervous pup feel safe during a visit or working with pet parents to tailor care plans to each animal’s unique personality, Dr. Reynolds approaches her work with empathy, positivity, and a deep commitment to community care.
Outside the clinic, her sidekick is Fern, her lovable and slightly wild two-year-old Brittany Spaniel. 🐶
We’re so lucky to have Dr. Reynolds on the team—and we know your pets will feel the same! 💙
