A lifelong pet lover and experienced veterinary technician, Kira joined the Dixie Road Pet Clinic family in September of 2023. She was searching for a clinic that could provide her with work life balance while still offering the opportunity to deliver exceptional care to patients, and that’s exactly what she found here!

At home, Kira has several pets of her own, including a sweet black lab named Albert, who loves swimming, belly rubs, and all food (especially pizza); a cat named Spoon, who was supposed to be a temporary foster; and two ball pythons: Alastor and Moony.

In her spare time, Kira enjoys traveling—particularly when she can combine it with her passion for veterinary medicine. To date, she has spent time in the Dominican Republic at a spay/neuter clinic and worked with a wildlife rehab facility in Guatemala. 

Will

William

Registered Veterinary Technician

Book Now

Will has always had a deep appreciation for animals and all they do for humans—so much so that he decided to become a veterinary professional as a way to give back to them. As a registered veterinary technician, Will is making a difference in the lives of pets on a daily basis and loving every minute of it!

After graduating from the University of Waterloo, Will took a couple of years to figure out how he wanted to enter the veterinary field. He decided on Sheridan’s Veterinary Technician program, from which he graduated with honours and passed the VTNE shortly afterwards. Will joined the Dixie Road family in June of 2023. Clinically, he enjoys assisting with surgery and anesthesia.

Outside of work, Will has a tripod kitty named Inky who hasn’t missed a beat, despite only having three legs. Aside from animals, Will’s personal interests revolve around gaming, whether it’s video games, board games, or tabletop games, such as Dungeons & Dragons. He’s also a fan of fantasy and sci-fi movies, including Lord of the Rings, and Star Wars.

Alex has known she wanted to work in the veterinary field since she was just four years old. Aside from the typical princess/ballerina stuff, she’s never wanted to do anything else. As she got older, her deep love of animals was complemented by a growing fascination with medicine. Choosing the veterinary field gave Alex the perfect opportunity to combine her two passions into one fulfilling career!

Alex’s journey into the veterinary profession was not an easy one. She tried for many years to get a volunteer position at various clinics, shelters, and even pet stores. With no luck, she enrolled in the veterinary technician program at Northern College. After struggling a bit, Alex decided to change gears and pursue her certification as a veterinary assistant. Over the years, she’s worked at several clinics looking for the perfect fit. She found just what she was looking for here at Dixie Road!

Alex’s absolute favorite part of the job is cleaning ears. Being able to remove all the buildup and watch the instant relief it brings to the patient is extremely rewarding. She also enjoys bringing comfort to patients and their owners and has a particular knack for earning the trust of anxious pets. And lastly, Alex appreciates the opportunity she’s been given to continually learn on a daily basis – something she takes full advantage of.

Outside of the clinic, Alex resides with her boyfriend, her daughter, and her own personal zoo. Blue, a husky/lab/rottweiler mix, is an 80-pound baby who loves a good belly rub or to snuggle in bed. Sasha is a spoiled, sassy kitty whose favorite things are being pampered and lounging gracefully atop a pile of clean laundry. Bandit is a trouble-maker, who can usually be found picking on his younger brother, napping or hunting for treats. There isn’t a cupboard he can’t break into or treat bag he can’t chew through.

Next, there’s Noxx, a cat who Alex adopted on the sly. Noxx may have lost one of his eyes due to an early infection, but that doesn’t stop him from out-wrestling his brother. Binx and Teenu are Alex’s pet rats, both of whom love to snuggle and eat any snack you are willing, or unwilling, to share. Last, but not least, there’s Dino, a bearded dragon who enjoys spending his time basking on his rock, eating worms, and pooping on Alex.

Between work, taking care of her daughter, and all the animals she has in her home, Alex has little time for much else, and she’s perfectly content with that!

Ashley

Ashley

Veterinary Assistant

Growing up, Ashley can’t remember a time throughout her childhood and adolescence when she wasn’t surrounded by animals. Both sets of grandparents owned farms, which meant on any given day, you could find Ashley tending to chickens, rabbits, goats, cows or horses. At home, there were plenty more critters to care for, from dogs to birds to freshwater sharks (yes—you read that right!). With this kind of upbringing, it’s no surprise that Ashley would end up in a career working with animals!

When Ashley graduated high school, she briefly considered going into the field of animal therapy and rehabilitation, but once she realized doing so would require travel, she opted instead to pursue general veterinary medicine. Ashley completed the Animal Care Program at Sheridan College and joined the Dixie Road team shortly thereafter. In her role as veterinary assistant, Ashley enjoys observing and aiding in surgeries. She also appreciates the deep connections she’s made with patients and their owners.

When she’s not busy at work, Ashley can usually be found spending time with her dog, Pipoca, who rules the house as the only fur-baby. Pipoca knows many tricks and will usually cycle through them all when asked to do one to ensure she gets her treat. Aside from animals, Ashley’s other interests include watching movies and listening to music.

Becca grew up in Newmarket in a big household that included lots of family and plenty of pets. When her dog, Shaky, was diagnosed with diabetes, Becca stepped up to help out with administering insulin. The experience opened Becca’s eyes to how much she enjoyed the medical side of animal care and inspired her to pursue a career in the veterinary field. The rest, as they say, is history!

Becca’s journey began right here at Dixie Road Pet Clinic, when she joined the team in January of 2024. Professionally, she has a special interest in X-ray imaging, which she finds fascinating. She also loves getting to interact with dogs and cats—it’s the best perk of the job!

At home, Becca has three fur-babies of her own, including two cats (Clove and Sage), and a dog (Bowie). Clove has lots of attitude but loves to cuddle. Sage is a chatty girl with a big personality. And Bowie is a mostly chill rescue pup who adores his family. In her free time, Becca enjoys baking and synchronized skating.
