Nicole

Experience & Background

Since joining Vista Animal Hospital in July 2024, Nicole has brought her enthusiasm, patience, and dedication to every pet she cares for. Whether assisting with pet wellness exams, surgical procedures, or post-treatment care, she is always eager to learn, support, and make a difference in the lives of pets and their families.

Nicole grew up on the shores of Guam, where she spent endless afternoons combing the sand for seashells. Each one was a potential new home for her beloved hermit crab. That early curiosity about coastal life turned into a lifelong love for animals.

Personal Interests & Hobbies

Nicole shares her life at home with Bailey, a lively Terrier mix who’s a bundle of love. In her free time, she jokes that her hobby is collecting hobbies. She laughs, “I’m always eager to learn something new, whether crafting, exploring creative projects, or picking up a fresh skill just for fun.” She also loves to travel and says that one of her biggest dreams is to walk every route of the Camino de Santiago, a historic pilgrimage stretching across Europe into Spain. Sounds amazing!
