Day 4 of Vet Technician/ Staff appreciation week at Baker Ranch Animal Hospital and we celebrate our fantastic front desk team

Haileigh is one of our newer team members but she’s already made great connections with our clients. She has a sweet black Labrador named Cora.

Teresa is a familiar face and voice to many of our clients as she works tirelessly at her other “ job” which is running Modjeska Ranch rescue- a local animal rescue that focuses on caring for animals that have medical needs or wouldn’t otherwise be adoptable such as senior pets. She’s also the author of several books which tell the tales of animals that she has helped.

Both Haileigh and Teresa are such assets to our team and we are grateful that we get to work with them. Thank you ladies! 😻🐾🐈‍⬛🐕‍🦺🫶

Day 3 of Vet Tech / Staff Appreciation Week at Baker ranch Animal Hospital and we are celebrating two of our amazing veterinary technician assistants- Bianca and Isaiah.

Bianca started as a student intern from Platt College RVT program and we were thrilled to hire her after she completed her course. Bianca loves the puppy and kitten visits and she has such a calm and sweet way with our furry friends that they can’t help but cuddle with her. Bianca has a cute tuxedo kitten named Mr Binx and two adorable pups - Benji and Seven.

Isaiah took a chance and dropped off a resume with us almost two years ago- he started as a kennel assistant but it was clear that he’s a quick learner and he rapidly gained assistant skills and knowledge to make sure our pet owners feel educated with their pets health. He always makes a big fuss of our patients and they love him 🥰

We a so grateful to have both of these wonderful people on our team 😍🐈‍⬛🐾🐕‍🦺

Day 2 of Staff Appreciation Week at Baker Ranch Animal Hospital and we’re celebrating two of our technician assistants- Jasmine and Cyndi.

Jasmine is studying for a veterinary technician assistant course while also working at our hospital. She loves all dogs but has a special bond with German shepherds. Fun fact about Jasmine - she has a beautiful singing voice and is amazing at Karaoke!! 🎶🎤

Cyndi is our cat whisperer- she came us as a student intern from Platt College where she graduated this year from their RVT program. Once she has taken the very challenging Vet Tech National Exam, she will then be Registered Vet Tech in California. Cyndi enjoys working with kitties whether they are sweet or scared she will calm them. 🐈‍⬛😻

Today kicks off the start of National Veterinary Technician Appreciation Week but as we’re a small team, we celebrate staff appreciation week as every one at our hospital deserves to be recognized for the love and passion that they bring to work.
Day 1. We’re highlighting Jill who is one of our two Registered Vet Techs. She is also our hospital lead and does so much behind the scenes work to keep Baker Ranch Animal Hospital running. Jill makes the day light hearted and fun - whether it’s singing along to the radio, calling the dental X-ray machine all sorts of foul names, or giving all the love and cuddles to your sweet pets. It is a treat to work with such an awesome human!
Thank you Jill - we appreciate you so much!

Happy Independence Day!!

We hope you have a fun and peaceful day of celebrating and wish that your pets are calm and not too upset with the fireworks 💥

Please enjoy the city organized events and leave your dogs at home.

Make sure they’re wearing collars with ID tags and that your yard and doors are securely closed.

Close the blinds and turn on some music at a good volume that drowns out most of the bangs.

If you have some prescription calming meds for your dogs from us, don’t forget to give them in good time.
Trazodone about 2hrs prior to dark
Sileo about 30-60min prior to dark

Walk or let your dogs out to go potty well before it gets dark. Sunset today is just after 8pm.

If you are grilling- please DONT give your pets food from the grill. We see lots of upset tummies on the days following holidays. Let your guests know this also. Make sure dogs don’t get into the trash either.

Finally it’s going to be a hot one!! Dogs can get heat stroke from being outside in the middle of the day, burned paws from the hot pavement, hot sand at the beach. Be mindful of them playing outside in the sun - give plenty of access to fresh water. Leave them at home indoors instead of risking their safety.

So with all that said- Happy 4th of July from all of us at Baker Ranch Animal Hospital 🇺🇸

Thank you for your business over the last 5 years ❤️ We’re always here to help and care for your loved ones 🐶🐱🐕‍🦺🐈
Thank you to the team for all your hard work and dedication ❤️
Let the celebrations commence 🥰

Microchipped pets are up to twice as likely to be reunited with their owners when they're lost or stolen.

On the night of July 4th - more pets go missing than on any other date - this is because loud noises can frighten pets and they may try to escape their home/ yard or slip the leash if outside.

Microchipping will soon become essential for any pet traveling back into the USA - due to new travel laws starting August 1st, 2024.

For best results, you need to keep your details up-to-date.

You can usually update your details online, the same way you first registered them. For some databases, updating your details might cost a small fee.

You must update your details when you change...
- Address,
- Phone number,
- Email,
Or when you change any other of your details.
If you've just acquired your pet, whether from a shelter or a breeder, ensure the microchip is updated to reflect you as the owner. Most reputable organizations will be happy to assist you with that.

Is your pet not microchipped yet? Contact us via the link in bio or below to schedule your appointment!
