Emma Neukom

With over 13 years of experience in the veterinary and animal care field, my dedication to animal welfare spans across various species. My diverse job experiences have deepened my love for animals and have continually pushed me to innovate in animal care. I am proud to hold certifications as a Cat Friendly Professional, Rat Tickler, and Fear Free Certified practitioner.

My passions lie in exotic animal medicine, feline medicine, One Health, animal behaviour, and wildlife care. I am committed to assisting pet parents with training and minimizing fear, anxiety, and stress for their pets during veterinary visits. As an enthusiastic advocate for "Happy Visits," I specialize in counter-conditioning animals using positive reinforcement, ensuring they feel more comfortable when seeing veterinary staff.

I am a lifelong learner, always pursuing continuing education to enhance my skills and stay abreast of advancements in veterinary medicine.

When I am not caring for animals, you can find me unwinding with a warm beverage and a good book, indulging in crafting, or enjoying nature. I am also on the path to obtaining my yoga teacher training certification.
