Paige Shields

“Meet Paige! 

With over a decade of experience in animal welfare, Paige has dedicated her career to advocating for animals, especially those who need a little extra patience, understanding, and compassion. Throughout her years in rescue, she has worked with countless nervous, fearful, and special-needs animals, learning that building trust starts with meeting every animal where they are. She believes every pet deserves to feel safe, understood, and loved, and she is excited to bring that experience and passion into her new role as a Veterinary Assistant!

Paige has a special place in her heart for the underdogs, the misunderstood, and the animals who need a little extra help navigating the world. Her background in rescue has taught her the importance of looking beyond labels, recognizing individual needs, and celebrating the little victories that make such a big difference. Whether she's helping a nervous pet feel more comfortable or supporting their medical care, Paige strives to make every experience as positive and stress-free as possible.

Outside of work, Paige is a devoted dog mom, and caring for her own special-needs babies is one of her greatest joys. She is married to her best friend, whom she's loved since middle school, and together they enjoy binge-watching their favorite TV shows and getting outdoors to practice nature photography.

For Paige, working with animals has never been just a job; it's a calling. She's excited to bring her years of hands-on experience, her love for the underdogs, and her commitment to compassionate care to her role as a Veterinary Assistant, helping pets and their families feel a little more at ease, one visit at a time.”
