Who We Are

Hi, my name is Wendy Holst. I graduated in 1994 from Kansas State University. I practiced in East Mesa and Fountain Hills before opening my own practice in 1998. In November of 2009, we moved to our beautiful new location. I’ve  always had a love for animals and will give you the honest “scoop.” I personally have two dogs, a rescue from Mexico named Pike and I inherited my parents’ Chihuahua named Andy. I recently bought a rescued Maine coon kitty home named Nachocat.  

Hello, my name is Majerle and I'm the friendly face you'll see at the front desk here at Paws Vet Clinic. I've always had a passion for animals and love being able to assist our clients and their companions. I'm dedicated to ensuring a smooth visit for every pet and their owner. In the time that I’ve worked at Paws I’ve built strong relationships with our clients and their pets. When I'm not working, you can find me taking care of my zoo of animals or hanging out with my friends and family. I have three dogs, two cats, a rabbit and a pot belly pig. Most of our clients are familiar with my tripod chihuahua Prince that sleeps under my desk making sure everyone gets their senior and military discounts. He is the one who got me the job here at Paws! Back in 2021, I brought Prince in for his 1 year follow up after he got his leg amputated due to cancer. I am excited to get to know you and your pets, and look forward to helping you with all your veterinary needs!

Hi, I'm Chelsey! I graduated high school in 2023, and I'm so excited to be working as a vet assistant in 2024! Growing up surrounded by animals has really helped and shaped my career path for me. My passion for helping them had continued to grow year after year and now I’m finally taking my first steps as a vet assistant! Although I have a long way to go, my dream is to continue my education in veterinary medicine and become a veterinarian, so that I can make a positive impact on the lives of your beloved furry friends and you as the owner! When I'm not working, I enjoy playing video games with my online friends and boyfriend. The game I tend to play is mostly Overwatch 2 which is a team based game that can get really annoying sometimes…I would also draw with charcoal but I haven’t gotten the motivation just yet to start drawing again. Charcoal itself is incredibly messy and that’s what I love about it, there’s no erasing if you make a mistake (you could), you just keep going over it and smudging the paper until you get what you like! Well this is me! I can’t wait to meet you and your furry companions soon! I’m looking forward to building relationships with everyone and providing the best care possible!

Hi, my name is Julieanna, I’m a veterinary technician I’ve been working at Paws Veterinary Clinic for 2 years. I went to Carrington College to get my certification. I wanted to join this career field because I wanted to help animals and owners, give their beloved pets a happier and healthier life.
