Dawn Barer - Licensed Veterinary Technician
Dawn has been working at our clinic since 1995. She is a Montana native. She began her career as a licensed dental lab
technician, gravitated towards animal medicine, and has loved every moment of the experience. Dawn has two children.
She and her significant other, Steven, have two dogs and two cats. Away from work Dawn enjoys spending time with
family, bike riding and cooking (if it makes your nose run and your eyes water - she cooked it! She loves those spicy
foods!) She is also a 3rd degree brown belt in karate, so watch out! |

Pam Fletcher - Veterinary Assistant
Pam has been with our clinic since 2000, and has been working in the veterinary field since 1986. She is an Idaho
native. Pam and her husband, Kevin, have three children. Pam raises performance Paint and Quarter horses. In addition,
the count of animals at Pam's farm is always changing because she fosters orphaned and neglected dogs, cats and
other critters. It is not unusual to hear stories of wild birds and other wildlife co-existing with her pets. Pam's
capacity for providing comfort to animals in need is an inspiration to us all.

native. Liz and her husband Jerry have two children. She has three horses, two dogs, two cats and two fish. During off
time, she enjoys horseback riding, snow skiing and shopping. Liz is our practical joker - when we get a weird phone
call, the first question is always "Is this Liz??" |

children. They own four dogs, three cats, one snake, assorted fish and a bird named Nipper (for good reason!) Cathy is
