Michelle

Registered Veterinary Technician

Michelle is a pet owner herself, and she knows exactly how she would want her own animal companion to be treated at the vet’s office. That’s why she strives to make each and every visitor to the clinic as comfortable, happy, and healthy as possible! Michelle is a Registered Veterinary Technician with the Breton Veterinary Hospital family.

Michelle holds a Bachelor’s degree in biology from Salisbury University and first entered the world of veterinary medicine in 2006. She became a member of the Breton Veterinary Hospital team in 2012, and she’s been helping the area’s pets and animal owners to live happier, healthier lives ever since. As a Tech, Michelle is fond of performing surgery and loves the instant results these techniques can give, and she’s also passionate about rescue work.

At home, Michelle and her husband, Mark, live with their young son, Ryan, and a rescued Pit Bull named Cayley. As a family, they love to spend quality time together and especially enjoy taking the boat and jet-ski out on the Patuxent River.

Ashley

Technician Assistant

In elementary school, when the teachers asked the students what they wanted to be when they grew up, without doubt or hesitation, Ashley answered “veterinarian”. As she grew older, Ashley’s love for animals was matched by a growing desire to learn how she could help them more. After losing a young, rescued pup to a tragic medical emergency, Ashley vowed to do everything she could to prevent others from having to go through the same thing.

Ashley attended online school through Animal Behavioral College and completed her externship here at Breton Veterinary Hospital in early 2023. Because there were now clinics hiring at the time, Ashley got a job at a pet daycare and boarding facility where she would feed, care for, and play with the guests. This allowed her to continue to work closely with animals until the end of that year, when she was offered a permanent position to return to Breton as a technician assistant.

Professionally, Ashley loves learning new things every day and gaining important hands-on experience in the veterinary field, whether it’s discovering a new medication for a certain disease or finding out how to run a special diagnostic test. The best part of her job, though, is playing an active role in helping pets in need and giving them the extra love and attention they deserve.

Outside of the clinic, Ashley is happily married and has two fur-babies of her own: beagles Duke and Daisey (a.k.a. “Daisey-Dukes”). A self-professed homebody, when she’s not working, you can usually find Ashley relaxing at home, snuggling with her pups and her husband.

Brittany

Veterinary Assistant

Brittany has been obsessed with animals of every shape and size for as long as she can remember. As a pet owner herself, she knows exactly how she would want her own animal companions to be treated. She strives to impart that same level of care and attention to each and every visitor here at the clinic! Brittany is a proud member of Breton Veterinary Hospital’s Veterinary Assistant team.

A native of St. Mary’s County, Brittany completed her schooling at the College of Southern Maryland to earn her Veterinary Assistant’s certification. Shortly afterward, she signed on here at Breton Veterinary Hospital in August of 2020. The rest is history! Brittany loves getting to know all of the patients that come to the clinic and helping them to feel comfortable. She’s also fond of working alongside a team of animal-lovers just like herself.

When she’s not at work, Brittany likes spending time with her family and friends, fishing in the summer months, and doting on her own pets at home. She has three dogs—a Husky named Dakota and a pair of Chihuahuas who go by Pumpkin and Piggy—and she’s also taking care of her sister’s cat while she serves in the United States Air Force.

Mandie

Veterinary Assistant

Mandie knew she wanted to work in the veterinary field from a young age due to her passion for helping animals, big and small. As a Veterinary Assistant here at Breton Veterinary Hospital, Mandie feels fortunate to be able to enjoy such a rewarding career where she can apply her skills and also enjoy plenty of bonding time with our patients.

Ambitious from the start and anxious to get started, Mandie launched her own pet sitting business right out of high school. A short time later, she enrolled in the Veterinary Technician program at Penn Foster College. Upon finishing her externship at another clinic, Mandie decided it was time for a change and joined the Breton Vet team in 2020. Professionally, Mandie finds phlebotomy especially satisfying. She also enjoys her work as a surgical technician, setting up for procedures, prepping the patients, placing the equipment and monitoring vitals.

At home, Mandie’s family consists of her husband, Peter, and their dog, Andy. When Andy was adopted, he was heartworm positive, but thanks to the couple’s care and attention, he is now healthy and heartworm free. Andy hates walking on carpet-less floors, and when forced to do so, he tip-toes as if he’s going to fall through ice.

Mandie’s personal interests include reading, crafting and baking. Her professional achievements include becoming CPR Certified and Fear Free Certified.
