She is passionate about caring for dogs and cats and often fosters homeless kittens. She enjoys spending time with her husband, two children, two dogs, four cats, and four rats. When not at work, she likes camping and hiking, visiting local parks, playing video games with her family, or curling up with a cat and a good book.

Licensed Veterinary Technician

Paige has been working in veterinary clinics since she was 17 years. She graduated from veterinary technician school in 1992 and has been working as a licensed technician ever since. Her favorite aspect of this profession (besides the animals) is being an advocate for the pet to the pet parent. Helping clients understand the best care for their pets and getting to know the families individually is what keeps her coming to work every day.

Paige grew up in Florida on a farm and has had many different species of animals. Currently, her family has a perfect kitty named Porsche and a bearded Dragon named Skitter.

She and her husband have two boys and as a family, they love to explore and do outdoor activities like hiking, paddling, and fishing. They moved from Atlanta, Georgia, and have lived in Kentucky for 17 years and are loving the change of seasons and the slower pace.
