Karli
Veterinary Technician
With over 10 years of experience as a dedicated veterinary technician, I am passionate about providing top notch care to every patient and helping pet owners understand how to keep their animals healthy and happy. When I'm not at the clinic, you can find me off-roading on scenic trails, camping and sharing stories around a campfire with friends or spending quality time with my favorite adventure buddy Tuna Marie.

Marka
Veterinary Technician
Hi! My name is Marka! I have been a dog handler/trainer for 7 years and has been a vet assistant for the last 5 years! I have 2 dogs, a yellow lab and a mastiff/cane corso. I also have a black cat, who all like to be trouble makers. In my free time, I love to dog train, hike and play soccer. If vet med was not around, my life would be way too boring!

Da'ja
Client Service Representative
Hello, my name is Da’ja and I’ve worked with dogs and cats for a little over 6 years. Working with animals has always been a huge passion of mine for years. I really enjoy working here at BPH as a CSR, meeting and greeting clients and their small/large fur babies, seeing clients happy that BPH staff is here to help take care of their fur babies and seeing the smiles on their faces makes me extremely happy. Thank you for choosing Belmont Pet Hospital as your veterinary clinic.

Alicia
Client Service Representative
I'm Alicia, born and raised in San Francisco. I've been working in this industry for about 10 years now. I love working with animals and hearing the stories pet parents share. I have two fur babies of my own, a dog and a cat. When I'm not working, I am usually with family or friends and love cooking in my down time.

Myla
Hospital/Kennel Assistant
Hi, my name is Myla and I’ve been working with domestic pets for as long as I can remember. I’m a Bay Area native and 1st generation Filipino. I’ve been through many struggles, including homelessness, but my love for dogs sparked when I found my 1st dog in an abandoned garage during that difficult period in my life. Ever since then I have never looked back and continue to enjoy caring for all animals.

McKenzie
Kennel Assistant
I was born and raised in Virginia and have been traveling and working at so many unique places since 2018. I have a lot of experience with animals, working with them and training them both personally and professionally. I have previously worked more in the kennel or boarding areas for most of my professional career, but this is my first time working in a pet hospital and I am always happy to continue to learn.
