Management Staff

Tonya
Hospital Manager

I am proud to be the manager of St. Charles Animal Hospital. I was born and raised in Southern Maryland. I grew up on a crop farm with no animals, not even pets. Even as a little girl, I truly loved animals. In 2001, I befriended a veterinarian who saw my passion for animals through my pet sitting business, and he hired me as a technician. In 2007, I joined the staff of St. Charles Animal Hospital. I am married and have one child and one dog.

I am here to help you with any problems or concerns that you might have. Please feel free to contact me or just stop by and say Hello!
