Selita, ACA, Client Care Representative

My name is Selita. I am an Animal Care Attendant with a myriad of responsibilities here at Derry Village Animal Clinic. I started my career at Derry Village Animal Clinic during my co-op placement while attending the Animal Care program at Sheridan in April 2015. It was a requirement for graduation. Two days into my placement I was offered a job.

I’ve had the privilege to work with some amazing doctors during my time at DVAC and look forward to learning more every day. What I love the most about my part here at DVAC is watching patients come back after recovering from life-threatening illnesses, happy and healthy. It is inspiring to know that I had a part in helping such an amazing creature have their best chance.

During my free time you can find me with my friends or family or with my cat Klaus, catching up on TV shows, or trying my hand at something new and interesting.

Tharigaah, Veterinary Assistant

Hey everyone, my name is Tharigaah and I have always had a great passion for animals. In 2021 I had the amazing opportunity to complete my grade 11 co-op here at Derry Village Animal Clinic, and before finishing my co-op I was offered a job!

I am currently working toward becoming a cardiologist, but the veterinary industry will always interest me. Working at DVAC has definitely increased my love for animals. I not only love animals, but also love talking, so if you ever feel bored, feel free to walk up to the front desk! In my free time you can find me binging tamil dramas with my grandma, traversing the outdoors or sleeping the day away.

My name is Shaye and I’m an assistant here at Derry Village Animal Clinic. I have a lot of love in my heart for animals of all shapes and sizes and it is my goal to offer your pets a safe and comfortable experience when coming for a visit. I hope to work my way up in the field and eventually be an exotic animal veterinarian. I have three cats at home and when i’m not working you can find me cuddling with them or participating in my hobbies such as visual art and creating music!

Michelle, Veterinary Assistant

My name is Michelle, and I bring over 20 years of dedicated service to the veterinary field as a compassionate veterinary receptionist and assistant. Beyond my clinic responsibilities, I actively collaborate with foster groups, providing nurturing care to orphaned kittens and supporting their journey to health and happiness.
