Meet Our Team

Holly joined West Mountain Veterinary Hospital through an externship program and has been with us since 2014.  She was born and raised in UtahCounty and has loved animals since she was young, so much so that after graduating high school she continued her education and  got her veterinary technician degree from Broadview University. She is now our senior licensed technician. Holly has a keen eye for detail and an answer for everything! She is definitely an asset to the clinic.  At home, Holly has 2 cats, Burt Reynolds & Jerry Reid. However, Holly has recently taken ownership of the hospital's live in dog, Bob. Bob was recently retired and is living his senior years comfortably with Holly and her family.  In her spare time Holly enjoys spending time with her family. She is also an INCREDIBLE baker & loves to cook! 

Kaela has been with West Mountain Veterinary Hospital since 2015.  She moved from Oregon to Utah when she was approximately 5 years old where she was raised on a farm with a variety of animals.  The family's first indoor pets were two dalmatians and she was terrified of them because of their size! This led to the family adding a sweet, small jack russell terrier, which began a deep love for animals. Specifically she has always had a soft spot for dogs and horses. Kaela always has a warm smile for everyone.  She is very kind and thoughtful, with a funny sense of humor and is well loved by the rest of the staff.  One thing she loves about her job is getting to know all the different personalities that come with each animal.  Kaela currently lives in Lehi with her husband and daughter where they enjoy any and all outdoor activities.  

Born in American Fork but graduating from Payson High School Jade is an avid animal lover with 2 dogs & several cats, chickens, skunks and mountain lions of her own. (Her pets adore her) Not only is Jade a hard worker that sees each tough job through to the end but she always keeps the hospital in good spirits with her light hearted attitude and incredible sense of humor! If Jade is working on the day your pet comes in they are sure to enjoy their visit or get special attention from her. On the weekends when she isn't working you can find Jade in the mountains camping, 4-wheeling, hunting & spending time with friends and family. She is an all around country girl that enjoys having  fun and getting dirty!
