Natalie joined the Patton Veterinary Hospital team in June 2023 as an Animal Care Attendant. Currently a senior at Dallastown High School, she is pursuing her dream of becoming a veterinarian. Working at the hospital allows her to gain hands-on experience and explore her passion for animal care.
At home, Natalie is surrounded by her beloved animals—a black Labrador named Remie, a Golden Retriever named Dixie, a cat named Calico, and her cherished horse, Hope. Her love for horses is one of her biggest passions, and she spends much of her time involved in 4H. She participates in the Swine Club, showing pigs, and the Horse Club, where she proudly shows Hope. If she has a free day, you’ll likely find her enjoying a peaceful trail ride with her horse.
Natalie is also an active and athletic individual, playing basketball and competing in both track and cross-country. Outside of school and sports, she loves spending time at the beach with her friends and family. One of her goals is to travel to Hawaii someday, a dream she hopes to cross off her bucket list.
Natalie’s enthusiasm, dedication, and love for animals make her a valued member of the Patton Veterinary Hospital team, and we’re excited to see where her journey in veterinary medicine takes her!
