Damica grew up in the south Frontenac area with many animal friends – from dogs and cats to horses and rabbits. These experiences lead her to select high school courses to attain a career working with animals. In 2017, she graduated and went straight to St Lawrence College. In July 2018, Damica graduated with a Veterinary Assistant Diploma; which included doing her placement here in April.
She worked for many years with Subway and with The Barkitorium dog walking since graduating.
In October, we hired Damica part-time; which became full time in November as the receptionist / veterinary assistant in the practice. 
On her days off: Damica enjoys going on trial rides with her best friend; and going for long walks in the local park with her dog, Taz!
