Omer Veterinary Services

From a young age Ashley knew she would be doing something with animals. She became a Veterinary Assistant in high school, and continued to work as such throughout post secondary school. Ashley decided to become a Veterinary Technician and started her program this fall. She has been with OVS for three years, calling them ‘her second family’. Ashley is well known in the clinic as the ‘happy distractor’ for dogs and cats as they get needles. She and her fiance live and farm near Watrous where she also enjoys crafting, gardening and renovating their farmhouse.

Janie might be our AHT to be heard singing “I’ve Been Everywhere Man” - she grew up in BC, studied at Olds College, then worked for 6 years at two equine clinics in AB. Following this she headed south where she spent the next 13 years as an AHT at the large animal hospital at Texas A & M school of veterinary medicine. Janie has really enjoyed making the change to work with small animals and definitely has a soft spot for our senior patients. When she’s not at work Janie enjoys spending time with her horse Wilson, her six cats, and her friends and family. Besides making us smile with her warmth and zany sense of humour, Janie enjoys travelling, painting, and pottery.

Aline joined Omer Veterinary Services in September of this year and quickly became an integral part of the team. She grew up in the Cypress Hills area and has been around animals her whole life. Animals have always been her passion, so she decided to become a Veterinary Technician (and we are so glad she did!). Her interests with veterinary medicine are in large animals and reproduction. At home she and her husband have four cats, with her horses and dog being back at the farm. As a hobby,  she races BMX and Motocross with her husband all over Alberta and Saskatchewan.
