Olivia

Certified Veterinary Technician

Meet Olivia:

Olivia is a Veterinary Technician at Sugar River Animal Hospital in Grantham, NH. She joined the Sugar River Animal Hospital team in September 2022, first as an assistant and then as a Veterinary Technician, bringing with her a lifelong love of animals and a passion for hands-on care. Born and raised in Lebanon, NH, Olivia lives just 15 minutes from the hospital and has deep roots in the local Upper Valley community.

Her journey into veterinary medicine began on the farm where she grew up, surrounded by dogs and horses. From an early age, Olivia loved helping care for animals, whether tending to injuries or assisting veterinarians during visits. Before joining the team at Sugar River Animal Hospital in Grantham, NH, Olivia gained over two years of hands-on experience working at Kedron Valley Stables.

In 2025, Olivia became a Certified Veterinary Technician (CVT) after successfully passing the VTNE. She earned her certification through the Wisconsin Veterinary Technician program, further advancing her skills and dedication to quality animal care.

At home, Olivia shares her life with a lively crew of pets, including Bugsy, a Boston Terrier/Pug mix; six guinea pigs of various breeds; Gemma, a mini pony; and Oson, a Morgan/Arabian horse.

In her free time, Olivia enjoys riding horses, reading, baking, and hiking. She finds true fulfillment in the challenge of veterinary care—solving the puzzle of an animal’s illness or injury, seeing them improve, and building lasting bonds with both pets and their people.

With her strong work ethic, compassion, and deep love for animals, Olivia is a valued member of the Sugar River Animal Hospital team in Grantham, NH.
