Jennifer
Jennifer
Practice Manager / Licensed Veterinary Technician
Jen has always loved animals. She became a veterinary technician because it allowed her to be a voice to the voiceless and an advocate for those who can’t care for themselves.

Jen moved to Gainesville, GA after graduating from UGA. After a year there, she spent another 23 years working in a general practice animal hospital before joining the All Animals Veterinary Hospital team. She returned to general practice here at All Animals to manage and share her knowledge of veterinary medicine with the other technicians.

Outside of the clinic, Jen lives with her wife, Jessica, and their two cats: Doodles and Sassafras.

Matt Holton
Matt Holton
Veterinary Technician
For Matt, veterinary medicine runs in the family—his father is Dr. Edward Holton, and his twin brother James works alongside him here at All Animals Veterinary Hospital. Matt knew early on that he wanted to do the same thing as his father and help animals to live happier, healthier lives! He couldn’t be happier to gain hands-on experience in the veterinary field here at the hospital while applying to veterinary school.

Matt is a Dawsonville native and a recent graduate of the University of Georgia, where he obtained his Bachelor’s degree in animal and dairy science. He plans on continuing his education at veterinary school in the future! For now, Matt serves in all areas of the hospital and enjoys the great variety that every day brings—on any given day, he might help to birth a litter of puppies or treat an infection in a dairy cow, and that fast-paced environment keeps him on his toes.

In his free time, Matt likes spoiling his own dogs at home. He shares his life with two Australian Shepherds named Taylor and Chloe.
Stacy
Stacy
Veterinary Technician
Stacy became a veterinary technician because she wanted to become a voice for those who cannot speak for themselves. She adores animals and thought a career working with them would be the perfect fit. It didn’t take long for her to realize that working with animals was her true calling in life!

Initially, Stacy started out in human medicine, but she quickly realized that her love for animals far outweighed her love of people. After working in an emergency room and a morgue, she followed her heart and made her way to the role of vet tech. She joined the All Animals team after having been a client for several years.

At home, Stacy and her husband, Casey, have a plethora of pets, including two dogs (Milo and Dexter), a cat (Lexi), three chickens (Charlie, Harley, and Salt), and two ducks (Remy and Riley). Stacy loves anything Disney and traveling. A self-proclaimed adrenaline junkie, Stacy has done some wild stuff, including jumping out of an airplane.
Elyse
Elyse
Veterinary Technician
Ever since Elyse could walk, she remembers following after all the pets her family had. The relationships she fostered with animals during her childhood helped shape er into the person she is today and helped her find her place in veterinary medicine. As a vet tech, Elyse has been able to combine her passion for medicine with her lifelong adoration of animals, and as it turns out, it’s the perfect fit!

After graduating high school, Elyse went on to study human medicine. Four years in, she decided to make the switch from two-legged patients to four, and she couldn’t be happier. Professionally, Elyse has a particular interest in working with felines. There’s just nothing better than seeing an anxious cat start to relax when you treat them with kindness, patience and understanding.

At home, Elyse has one rescue dog named Luna, who is her very best friend; four cats – Sunny, Mama, Cherry, and Jasper; and a leopard gecko named Zesty. In her spare time, Elyse enjoys watching things grow, so she has many houseplants that she tends to. She also recently started her own herb/vegetable garden.
Dee
Dee
Customer Service Representative
Long before she was an employee here at All Animals Veterinary Hospital, Dee was a client. When the opportunity arose for her to join the team at the hospital she’d brought her own pets to for so many years, she jumped at the chance! Dee is now a proud member of the clinic’s front-desk team.

Originally from southern Louisiana, Dee moved to Dawsonville in 1996 and has lived in the area ever since. She worked in the human medical field for 18 fulfilling years before deciding it was time for a change of pace—that’s when Dee decided to do something she’d always been passionate about and explore the world of veterinary medicine. She joined the All Animals Veterinary Hospital family in October of 2020 and couldn’t be happier with her choice! Dee’s favorite part of every shift is getting to foster relationships with the area’s pet owners and their four-legged companions.

Away from work, Dee’s interests include staying active in her church, reading, visiting the beach, crafting, and spending quality time with her family. She and her husband of nearly 30 years have two wonderful children, Ariel and Ren, as well as several granddogs.
