Natalie McLaughlin

Nat grew up in Latham, New York, where her passion for animal care began at the age of 4, when she was first exposed to large animal care at a family friend’s barn. This early experience sparked a lifelong interest in veterinary medicine. Currently, Nat also works at Troy Veterinary Hospital, where she has been a veterinary assistant for small animals since February of 2022. On the weekends, she helps care for five horses, further improving her hands-on experience with large animals. To further advance her career, Nat then enrolled in the Veterinary Technician degree program through PennFoster in August of 2024. With a passion for learning and a commitment to animal care, Nat continues to grow professionally while providing compassionate service to every patient and client.
