Veterinarian
Dr. Horner was born and raised in San Jose, CA. As an only child, she quickly came to recognize and appreciate the companionship and unconditional love of animals provide to their owners. Growing up, she has had several cats, various species of fish including African cichlids, box turtles and a Parrotlet.
In 2008, Dr. Horner graduated with a Bachelors of Science in Neurobiology, Physiology and Behavior from UC Davis. After graduation, she returned to San Jose to gain additional experience in the veterinary field. After training as a technician’s assistant in a general practice, Dr. Horner gained employment at a veterinary specialty practice in Campbell, CA where she worked alongside an oncologist in both radiation and chemotherapy. These jobs provided invaluable experience and an opportunity to explore specialized care in veterinary medicine.
As a native Californian, Dr. Horner is excited to be back in Northern California after spending several years in small animal general practice in both Massachusetts and Oregon. Dr. Horner is passionate about preventative medicine, internal medicine and management of multiple comorbidities in geriatric animals. The connection and trust she develops with clients and their pets continues to be the most rewarding aspect of her career in veterinary medicine, and she truly enjoys tailoring medical care to each animal and owner’s unique situation and lifestyle.
Dr. Horner currently resides in Woodland, CA with her husband and 2 year old daughter while her husband completes a residency in Veterinary Clinical Pathology at UC Davis. In her free time, Dr. Horner enjoys taking care of her numerous houseplants, practicing yoga and spending time with her husband, daughter and indoor/outdoor cat, Sullivan.
