Hi My name is Ashlee, I’ve been with Animal Clinic of Brandon for over 10 years! This place is a 2nd family to me.
I enjoy what I do and have always enjoyed being around animals. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with family and friends, arts and crafts, the outdoors, and most of all my pet pig Jimmy Dean! My husband and I would be lost without him.

Originally from Missouri, my husband and I relocated to Florida in 2005. I have been with the Animal Clinic of Brandon since 2008. We have 2 pets, a Min Pin named “Rudy” and a cat named ” Miss Kitty Kat” I really love my job. Its fun and I enjoy interacting with our clients and their pets.

I was born into a military family in March of 1986. I’ve had the great privilege of traveling around the world because of the Air Force. My final move was to here in Tampa. It was here that I met my husband, we were married in 2008. I have kids, cats, dogs and ferrets. Although I have never owned a horse I do love horseback riding. I like to spend my free time with my kids, reading, or watching TV and movies. My love of animals is what led me to working in a vet’s office. I love working with animals and I can’t imagine ever doing anything else.

I was born and have live in or around Tampa all my life. I’ve grown up around all types of creatures and always had a passion in caring for animals of all sizes. I admired large animal medicine in Future Farmers of America in high school and then when attending Hillsborough Community College’s Veterinary Technology program, I grew an appreciation for small animal medicine. I am a Certified Veterinary Technician and have been with the Animal Clinic of Brandon since 2015.
