Dannie

Office Manager & Veterinary Assistant

I have been employed at Rockdale Animal Hospital since May 2008. I have been working in the veterinary field, including a local emergency clinic, since June 2006. In 2012, I was given the opportunity to act in a dual position of Office Manager and Veterinary Assistant. (I couldn’t imagine giving up all of my duties as an assistant.) When I’m not working, I enjoy the farm life that includes cats, dogs, chickens, bees, goats and donkeys.

Cheyenne

Veterinary Assistant

I started at Rockdale Animal Hospital in October 2021. Before joining the RAH family, I worked in the veterinary field for over 3 years. During my free time I love spending time with my 2 beautiful daughters, husband, family, and friends. I have 2 cavalier King Charles spaniels (Meredith and Iris), 2 German shorthair pointers (Gus and Gemma), and a cat named Nala. I have always had a love for animals since I was a little girl and I enjoy working with them everyday.

Samantha

Veterinary Assistant

I joined Rockdale Animal Hospital in October 2021 with 1 year of veterinary experience. I have a cat named Malcom that I rescued as a kitten back in 2019. When I’m not at work I enjoy spending time with my boys, Levi and Izach.

Taylor

I joined the Rockdale Animal Hospital family in September of 2019 with 2 years of experience in the veterinary field. I have three of the sweetest dogs: Kent, Rip & Finley. I enjoy nature and being out in the woods.

Jordan

Registered Veterinary Technician

I started at Rockdale Animal Hospital as a veterinary technology intern in Fall of 2019. After graduating, I came back to work full time as their sole Registered Veterinary Technician in June 2020. Born and raised in Covington, I’ve wanted nothing more than to work with animals my entire life. When I’m not at work, I stay busy keeping up with my cats, Parmesan and Duck, and my dogs, Odie and Beau.

Our Mascots

Squish

This creature was brought in after a suspected dog attack. As a result, she has a non-visual eye that doesn’t slow her down! This trouble maker always has the RAH staff belly rolling with her crazy antics. She will hide behind walls/ doors only to sneak attack any unsuspecting victim. She spends most of her time helping with laundry and playing hide and seek. Don’t be surprised if she pops out from an exam room cabinet!

Rosie

You will rarely leave the clinic without having run into a Chihuahua or two (or three). Tiny Rosie belongs to Dr. Crain. She is a clinic favorite, and we generally have to check people’s purses on their way out the door to be sure they haven’t packed a little stowaway!

Pippa

Look, but don’t touch! Pippa belongs to our Assistant, Dannie. She is a very sweet, loving little girl, but like many Miniature Pinschers (ie: Min Pin), she is suspicious of strangers and does not want to be handled by anyone she doesn’t know. She had a bit of a rough start but she has won over the hearts of our staff. She pretends to be the receptionist most of the time.

Bruce

This sweet boy was picked up by a good Samaritan and brought in for a microchip scan. With no microchip, we searched high and low for his original owners, without any luck. We knew from day 1 he was a perfect fit for our clinic. This sweet boy loves greeting clients and being a “cat daddy” to all adoptable kittens.
