Michele

Certified Veterinary Technician

Michele started her veterinary career with a PCDI degree in Animal Care Assistant before attending Globe College for veterinary technology. After graduating, she passed the state and national certification exams to become a certified veterinary technician. She completed an internship at a practice in Wisconsin before joining Blue Sky in the spring of 2006.

Michele believes her pets have a special bond with her since five of her seven pets were rescued! Sweetie is really a very sassy cat, while Sebastian is oh so laid back. The same applies to her horses.  At 17 years old Tango is all about fast-forward, but young thoroughbred Mickey moves in slow motion (maybe that’s why he was retired from the race track).  Young, spry Arabian Monty always keeps the others running and playing.  And then there’s Zeus, a very friendly nine-year-old Doberman who has a natural sense for identifying “inebriated” people, whom he loves to protect Michele from.  The newest addition to her family is Punkinseed, a young kitty who was surrendered to the clinic after being found on the roadside at 8 weeks old.  She has lost the use of one leg which will likely need amputation - which Michele is currently saving up money for.

In her spare time, Michele enjoys caring for boarded horses, snowmobiling, hunting and fishing (in all seasons).  She also rides Tango in North Pines Mounted Search and Rescue and trail rides often in Wisconsin parks.
