MANAGER

Loyal, kind and full-of-life, Kristin brings a little bit of sweetness and a whole lot of passion to the team at On The Spot! As the Manager, Kristin loves the unique aspect of a mobile veterinary surgical team which affords her the opportunity to form close relationships with both veterinary hospital staff and pet parents. There is nothing more rewarding to Kristin than to oversee every aspect of our operations from start to finish.
Kristin began her educational career at Marion Technical College studying Medical Assisting in anticipation of working in the human medical field. While preparing for her clinical semester, her interest peaked in the veterinary field. She was challenged to make a monumental decision to redirect her talents into a new career path taking care of pets and their people. She chose to take the risk and began her hands-on training as a Veterinary Assistant at a small veterinary general practice. Kristin has taken a special interest in the precious relationship between pets and their people and is in process of completing her Human-Animal Bond Certification!
Kristin followed her God-given desire to serve in the veterinary field for nearly a decade. She was first trained as a veterinary assistant with hands-on experience in wellness, medical and surgical care of pets and then pursued several years of client care and veterinary practice management.
Born and raised in a little town called Green Camp, Ohio, Kristin met her fun-loving husband, Matt, at 15 years of age and the two were married shortly out of high school. Kristin was a stay-at-home mom with her girls Cassidy & Bella while they slowly collected a pack of rescued fur babies! Their family enjoys spending time with Kenzie (Chiweenie), Nora Jane (Chihuahua), and their two playful felines Theodore Roosevelt and Rema Lema. Kristin spends quality time reading in her book nook, friend/family game night at their peaceful abode in Marysville and serving on the worship team at Marysville Grace. You can catch Kristin and her family kayaking in the reservoir in Marysville!
When Kristin transitioned to employment with On The Spot, she was ecstatic to accept the opportunity as the Scheduling & Communications Coordinator knowing her personal and career goals would be possible. She enjoys time on the road working with the team as well as being able to spend time at home working in the vicinity of her family. In her own words, “For me personally, there is no other job out there that is more rewarding than serving our clients, our patients, and fellow veterinary colleagues. I want to provide the absolute best possible service that I can, it is my goal.”
