Jen has been in the veterinary profession for over 20 years managing veterinary clinics and as a technician, and joined the PMCU team in 2024. She has had a love for animals since she was a kid and wanted to grow up to be a veterinarian. In 2002 she graduated from Iowa State University in Animal Science and decided to enter the field leading practice teams instead of becoming a doctor. In her free time she enjoys gardening as a Polk Co Master Gardener and using her creative side for crafting and DIY projects. She has 4 Cavalier King Charles Spaniels and 2 cats at home.
Nikki was working as a stay at home mom when she started having the urge a couple years ago to get back into the work force, and one day her daughter, Annika, mentioned there was a need for extra hands at the clinic and the rest is history! She fills in anywhere she can to help in any way to make sure all of our clients and patients are taken care of but you can usually find her smiling face greeting you from behind the front desk. Her family has 2 dogs and 3 cats that keep them busy.
Brooke has a love for animals that began at a young age. She grew up with cats and dogs at home and her first cat she got in kindergarten lived to be 23! Before joining the veterinary industry at PMCU 2 years ago she received her degree from UNI in Leisure, Youth and Human Services and worked in mental health with the homeless for 12 years. She is working toward her veterinary technician certification and when she's not at work she is loving on her rescue pup, Lulu.
Jeanne has been a part of the PMCU team part-time off and on since 2022 filling in where she is needed. She lives in Granger and shares her home with her husband and three boys. The boys being Reginald,a 2 year old Goldenaussie, Ollie an orange tabby cat, and Hank, a gray tabby cat. Hank and Ollie are 7 year old littermates.

Getting to meet all of the wonderful patients that come through our doors is what she enjoys the most. Her family has 7 dogs but finally also has an Australian Shepherd, Murphy, of her very own!
