Rhonda Sussey is a Veterinary Assistant and Customer Service Representative who has spent her entire life wanting to help owners provide their pets with healthy, happy lives. She finds a unique sense of purpose in the surgical suite, enjoying the process of a procedure from start to finish. Rhonda understands that surgery can be a stressful time for pet owners, and she takes great pride in easing their minds by staying with their pets until they are safely returned to their families. For Rhonda, a "win" at work is the quiet moment a shy or nervous pet finally approaches her to take a treat, or when a client feels truly appreciated for being a partner in their pet's care.

Rhonda views the role of a Veterinary Assistant as a dynamic one that changes every day, requiring her to jump between answering phones and providing technical restraint for the medical team.

At home, Rhonda manages a busy and diverse household of animals, including three dogs—Enzo, Annie, and Gracie-Lou—two cats named Simba and Smokey, a fish named Kevin, and a bearded dragon named Diego. When she isn't at the clinic, she enjoys reading, creating diamond art, and spending quality "family time" hanging out with her boys, Brandon and Ashton, and her niece and nephew.
