Elizabeth Velasquez
office manager

I am a Virginia native, I moved to California when I was 5 yrs old.  I became a dog groomer and started managing a Boarding Facility by the age of 17.  In 2007 I returned to my Va roots. I started working at TTAH in 2008 as the Doggie Daycare Supervisor and became Office Manager in 2014.  I have been a dog owner and lover my entire life.  I acquired my first Boxer Jax a little over 5 yrs ago.  The bond between the two of us in incredible. I fell in love with the breed and acquired two more Boxers.  I also own an elderly Pug and a moody little Chihuahua.  I am known around the Hospital as the Crazy Boxer Lady.
On my free time I enjoy cooking, spending time with my kids, family and friends.  I look forward to meeting you and your Pet.

Beverly Foltz, LVT

Hi, my name is Beverly and I was born and raised in Spotsylvania, VA. My love of animals started at a very early age for me. I grew up on a small hobby farm that, at one time or another, had goats, chickens, pigs, turkeys, dogs, and cats. My parents’ house was the home for wayward animal souls, so to say I took care of a lot of sick animals growing up is an understatement. I am a graduate of Northern Virginia Community College’s Licensed Veterinary Technician Program. I own a Senegal parrot named Fozzy, who is the bird version of a toddler, and an African Pygmy Hedgehog named Tennessee Whiskey, who is the exact opposite of Fozzy. Working at TTAH has given me a lot of experience with dogs, cats, and various exotic animals. I am excited to see where this journey and the team at TTAH takes me!

Nicole Williams
 daycare supervisor

I am originally from Berlin, Germany and worked as a licensed practical nurse. In my 20s, I met my husband, an American in the military. We moved to American and I spent several years raising our son. In 2004, it was time to go back to work. I got a job at an animal hospital and have continued working with animals throughout all our moves. Working with animals is like second nature to me, and I feel like I am making a difference. I started working at TTAH in 2014 as a receptionist and then was promoted to Doggie Daycare Supervisor.
In my free time, I enjoy horseback riding, spending time with my family and spoiling our three pets: Lola and Bella, our Yorkies and Jingles, our cat, who believes my purpose in life is to wait on her.

Samantha Morrow
front end supervisor

Working in a veterinary setting has been a dream of mine since I was a little girl. I have always found veterinary medicine and animal anatomy fascinating.
I have had the honor of working at TTAH for 4 years now. I take pride in my position as front end supervisor and treat each client that comes through our doors as family.
I am a mom of 2 dogs: Cooper, a black lab, and Lilo, a rescue pit bull. I also have a sassy cat named Boujee, who I brought home one day after she was dropped off by the dumpster at work. These three have changed my life for the better. I could never imagine a life without animals.
When I am not at work, I enjoy spending time outdoors with my husband and making the best of life.

Callie Clayborn

I was born and raised in Stafford, VA. Graduated from Stafford High School in 2012. I have always had a love for animals ever since I was little. That love has grown since I started at TTAH in August 2013. I am currently in the veterinary technician program at Penn Foster in order to get my LVT. Looking forward to many more years here at Tidewater! When I’m not working I love spending time with family and my 3 fur babies: Fuel, a 3 year old Doberman, Mariah, a 2 year old Pit mix , and Bertha, a 9 year old DSH cat.
