She has never felt more at home with a job, than she does in an animal clinic. Rebecca has been bringing her animals to Kindred Spirits long before she started but has always felt like part of the family. Her favorite part is baby talking to each pet that comes in and being apart of their journey.
She has a menagerie of animals of her own with a Great Dane, a Dachshund, and six cats. She always seems to have a rescue animal looking for their new forever home. When home, she loves spending time cuddling her furbabies, playing movie line trivia with her brother and reading.  

Mckenna, Client Care Coordinator

Born in Boulder, Colorado, and raised in Absecon, New Jersey, I finally decided to ditch the
seasons and found my home here in Florida during the fall of 2019. Growing up I wanted to be a
veterinarian - that inspiration and passion paved the way towards my position at Kindred Spirits
Animal Clinic. My 4 years I have spent as a veterinary assistant before I started here has taught
me the fine art of patience, how to keep a cool head in stressful situations, and getting used to
coming home covered in fur and slobber most days of the week. One of my favorite parts of
working with animals is experiencing the bond that people have between themselves and their
four-legged family members first-hand. Our clients put their trust in us to help maintain and
strengthen that bond - being a part of that unconditional love that each pet parent has with their
baby is what it's all about. When I’m not at work, you could probably find me at home, reading
Harry Potter with my boston terrier Coco by my side, tending to my pet pacman frog and many
plants, or out exploring a part of Florida I haven’t been before. I received an Associate’s Degree
from Eastern Florida State College and I’m currently saving up to further my education at
University of Central Florida.
