Eva, Veterinary Assistant / Customer Service
Eva Eva graduated from Edison High School in 2003. She started work at Burke Animal Clinic as a Veterinary Receptionist in September 2004. She enjoyed interacting with all our pet owners but really wanted more hands on experience with the animals. After weeks of training she became a Veterinary Assistant. She absolutely loves that position! She enjoys being able to watch puppies and kittens grow into wonderful adult dogs and cats. She also loves being able to help the sick and injured pets that are brought to the clinic. It is very fulfilling to see them return to the Clinic for their check ups and have a clean bill of health. Eva loves this job because she finds herself learning something new everyday. She enjoys discussing medicine with the doctors who are very patient with her and explain whatever she doesn't know.

 

Sara, Veterinary Assistant
Sara aspires to become a veterinarian one day, and wanted to get a head start working with animals. She has three cats of her own, Casey, Damien, and Lindsey, and one mixed dog, Jessie.

Her hobbies include playing softball and reading mysteries, and she also volunteers once a week by picking up litter at various parks.

She started as a veterinary assistant in the back and moved to the front desk in June of 2000. She has been married since 1977 and has four children. Her personal menagerie includes: Blue, a black lab who was adopted at 2-1/2 years, Payton, a gray tabby who was brought home with her college kid's laundry, Pebbles, a miniature schnauzer adopted by same college kid to keep Blue company, Chuck Norris, a rat snake and last but not least, Pokey, an Asian Box Turtle adopted, you guessed it, by the SAME college kid. Lisa tells us she is no longer letting the kid in the house.

Philippa moved to the U.S. in 1994 and has lived in the Northern Virginia area since then. She's a mother of three children, which keeps her busy.

 

Jessica, Customer Service
Jessica joined Burke Animal Clinic in April of 2006. She was born and raised in Maryland and moved to Virginia shortly after the birth of her first and only daughter in February of 2006. She has a Siberian Husky named Aries born in 2001 and a 16-year-old Persian named Smokey; all of which still live in Maryland with her parents. Here in Virginia she is currently the owner of a 5 year-old guinea pig, fish, and geckos. She also has a feline family of 3 including a black female cat by the name of Itty Bitty who was rescued from under a parked car in the Burke area. Itty Bitty was born in 2005 and went from being a starving kitten to a not so ‘bitty’ cat. She also has a male tabby by the name of Sasha who was born in 2002, and her newest addition is a 4 year-old female calico named Shelby who was brought to the clinic and desperately needed a home. Shelby was born in 2003. Because Jessica would take home every pet that needed a home the Management Staff at Burke Animal Clinic have banned Jessica from adopting anymore clinic pets.
