Veterinarian. Pet owner. Fellow explorer.

25+

years of veterinary practice
in Southern California

Your host & guide

Meet Dr. Kathy.

Dr. Kathy practiced veterinary medicine in Southern California for more than 25 years. A senior herself, she shares her life with Cody, her Briard companion, and brings professional experience and personal understanding to the questions you may face with your own pet.

As the former owner of PetPoint Medical Center & Resort in Irvine, California, she built a center around her vision of thoughtful, individualized care. Veterinary medicine and holistic care, boarding, grooming, daycare, and training came together under one roof, giving her a broad perspective on pets’ health, quality of life, behavior, and everyday enjoyment.

Her attention to their wellbeing extended to nutrition. She incorporated a full commercial kitchen into the center, where freshly prepared meals and treats became part of the experience for visiting pets.

Dr. Kathy has also shared her veterinary knowledge as a Care Expert on CareCredit’s podcast and videocast, helping pet owners better understand their companions’ care.

On Pets & Me @ 63, you’ll get to know the person behind that approach: an experienced veterinarian, a curious explorer, and a fellow pet owner who enjoys sharing discoveries with warmth, practical insight, and a little humor.

Welcome to SilverSpring

A neighborhood
that feels familiar.

A question, an unexpected worry, a moment that makes you smile—life with pets gives us plenty of stories worth sharing. Dr. Kathy has always preferred exploring those everyday experiences with you, drawing on the conversations and concerns she encountered throughout her years in practice. That spirit inspired SilverSpring, our fictional neighborhood of people and pets whose joys and challenges may feel much like your own. Their stories bring the subjects we explore into familiar surroundings, helping you understand the possibilities, consider your choices, and feel better prepared for your own journey.
