Katherine Dickens started in the veterinary field as a kennel assistant at Roswell Animal Hospital where she was employed for 3 years.  She then worked as a veterinary technician in Knoxville while attending the University of Tennessee.  She has been a technician at South Forsyth Animal Hospital for 3 years.  She is currently attending Perimeter College with the intention of pursuing veterinary medicine as a career.  She also runs a flourishing pet sitting business.

In her spare time Katherine enjoys spending time with friends, and camping with her best friend Shiloh - a 4 year old mixed breed whom she rescued while in Knoxville.  Pacino, a 14 year old retired feline blood donor is her other adopted pet.

Katherine’s ability to connect with our patients, her calm manner during stressful cases and emergencies, and her constant hard work are wonderful assets to our hospital.
