About Us
Our Mission
At “Running Wild,” our mission is to provide collaborative, evidence-based rehab therapy that restores function and improves well-being for animals and their families.
Our Story
As a Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) and Certified Companion Animal Rehabilitation Therapist (CCAT), I bridge the gap between advanced medical care and optimal recovery. My passion lies in restoring function, managing pain, and enhancing the quality of life for both orthopedic and neurological patients.
After having established a foundation as a Certified Veterinary Technician, I pursued advanced certification through NC State University's premier Veterinary Rehabilitation Program. My rigorous academic training was amplified by a hands-on, six-month externship at McLean Veterinary Sports Medicine/Fit For A Dog in Havertown, PA. This unique combination provided me with deep, practical experience in sports injury conditioning, post-operative rehabilitation protocols, and therapeutic modalities before achieving certification in February 2025.
We are dedicated to collaborating with veterinarians to design and implement tailored rehab plans that help patients return to their favorite activities—whether that's winning in the ring, hiking a trail, or simply jumping on the couch.
