Amanda S.
Amanda S.
Veterinary Technician, Lead Surgical Technician
After her time in the United States Air Force, Amanda worked security at a hospital and soon decided to try her hand in the world of human healthcare. But after some time, she realized that her heart wasn’t truly in it. That’s when Amanda realized something: she could satisfy her interests in the medical world while spending time around pets every day by working in veterinary care! She hasn’t looked back since, and is now a Licensed Veterinary Technician and serves as Community Animal Hospital’s Lead Surgical Technician.

Amanda is originally from the Seattle, Washington area. After her veterinary schooling was complete, she launched her Tech career at a corporate practice, where she would help pets and owners for the next six and a half years. When the time came to search for another opportunity and expand her skillset even further, Amanda came across an opening here at Community Animal Hospital. She joined the clinic family in the summer of 2017, and couldn’t be happier to serve the area’s pets and animal parents alongside a team of animal-lovers just like herself.

As a Tech, Amanda loves performing dental cleanings, repairing abscesses and wounds, and examining samples under the microscope. Most of all, she loves to communicate directly with pet owners and help them to choose the best products, services, and care techniques for their beloved companions.

Amanda enjoys cooking, camping, reading—she’s a huge Harry Potter fan—and watching her favorite movies and television shows in her time away from work. At home, she has one cat: a Maine Coon named Pigwidgeon who is constantly worried he might starve and always demands food.
Steph
Steph
Veterinary Technician
Steph decided to join the world of veterinary medicine for one simple reason: she’s always adored pets, and she wants to do everything in her power to make sure they live the happiest, healthiest lives they possibly can. What better way for her to do that than by working hands-on to help pets feel better as a Veterinary Technician?

Originally from New York, Steph moved to Pennsylvania at a young age and has lived in this area ever since. She first joined the Community Animal Hospital team nearly two decades ago, and has learned everything she knows from the many talented doctors and Technicians she’s had the pleasure of working with over the years. Steph’s favorite aspects of being a Tech include working in surgery, helping senior pets, and making the clinic’s boarding visitors feel more comfortable.

At home, Steph has several pets of her own. She shares her life with Danny, a timid three-legged Podenco dog from the Dominican Republic; a Pit Bull named Lulu; and Toby the senior Bichon Frise. The animal portion of the family is rounded out by four cats: Josephine, Connor, Louis, and Archie.
Natasha
Natasha
Veterinary Technician
Natasha was inspired to become a veterinary professional by her childhood Bichon Frise, Coconut. The care and compassion shown by her family’s local veterinarians and Technicians made a lasting impression on her—she knew that she wanted to do the exact same thing for other pet owners! Now, Natasha gets to do just that as a Veterinary Technician.

Natasha is a York native and attended York Technical Institute to study veterinary technology. While searching for externships, she came across Community Animal Hospital—Natasha knew right away that it was the perfect fit. She joined the team in 2016 and has been helping the area’s pets and animal parents here ever since.

Around the clinic, Natasha loves interacting one-on-one with the area’s pet owners. She particularly likes to impart her knowledge in order to help pets live the happiest, healthiest lives they can at home.
Natasha’s interests outside of work include reading, cheering on the Philadelphia Eagles, and spending time with her family and pets. At home, she has five dogs—Jackson, Finn, Syd, Tyler, and Taylor—as well as five cats who go by Nicho, Charlotte, Simon, Moo Moo, and Peanut.
Jill
Jill
Veterinary Technician
Jill is a Pennsylvania native but lived in the southern part of the country for a time. It was there that she saw a lot of animals who suffered from mistreatment or neglect—Jill knew right away that she wanted to make a difference. That’s why she decided to become a veterinary professional. Now, Jill helps animals daily as a Veterinary Technician!

Jill joined the team here at Community Animal Hospital in the spring of 2015, and she’s been helping the pets of the York area live happier, healthier lives ever since. For her, the best part of every day is knowing that she’s able to help those who can’t speak up for themselves. Jill loves the knowledge that she’s making a real difference in the lives of the community’s families!

When she’s not at work, Jill enjoys relaxing in the great outdoors and spending time with her family and pets at home. She and her wife, Wendy, have three dogs—a Great Pyrenees named Norman, Pita the Poodle, and a Puggle who goes by Maggie—as well as three cats named Ophelia, Donkey, and Peaches. The furry contingent of the family is rounded out by six loveable goats.
Cindy
Cindy
Head Receptionist
Cindy was always struck by the connection her childhood veterinarian shared with the animals under his care. She knew that she would love to form those same bonds with four-legged patients! When the opportunity arose for Cindy to work in a pet clinic herself, she jumped at the chance.

Cindy joined the Community Animal Hospital family in April of 2004 after stumbling across an advertisement for an open position. She’s been caring for the pets and animal parents of the area ever since.
Around the clinic, Cindy loves to talk with pet owners about their animal friends and help them to better understand their pets’ care needs. She’s also fond of furthering her own education and imparting that information to the clinic’s visitors.
Amanda D.
Amanda D.
Certified Veterinary Technician
Amanda felt an intrinsic connection with animals ever since her early days growing up in the Zions View area. She always knew that she wanted to serve as a voice for those who couldn’t speak for themselves—for Amanda, advocating for animals is simply all that she’s ever wanted to do. That’s why she became a Certified Veterinary Technician!

Amanda became certified as a Veterinary Technician in Pennsylvania in August of 2018, and she’s been helping pets live happier, healthier lives in that capacity ever since. Now, she’s a member of the Community Animal Hospital family and couldn’t be happier to continue her animal-care journey alongside a team of compassionate animal-lovers just like herself.

As a Tech, Amanda loves the fast-paced nature of critical care work, and she’s also fond of venipuncture and hematology. Most of all, she likes to make any animal visitor to the clinic feel safe, comfortable, and cared for.
Away from the clinic, Amanda enjoys reading, completing puzzles, hiking, and spending time with her friends, family, and pets. Along with her two young children, Amanda shares her home with two dogs named Xena and Groot; a bearded dragon named Spike Lee; a pair of rats; several cats; and a small flock of nine chickens.
