Lynhaar
Lynhaar joined the Portland Animal Clinic team in July 2015. She is a native from the Island of Puerto Rico. She knew early in her life that she had a passion to take care of animals. She finds fulfillment in being the voice for the voiceless. To start her dreams, she graduated with an Associate degree in Animal Science at the University of Puerto Rico. She also did an apprenticeship to learn the art of Pet Grooming. She spent a decade in Colorado, working as a veterinary assistant and pet groomer. Three years ago she moved with her family to Portland to start yet a new chapter in her life, loving the diversity of people, the weather and beautiful scenery. She and her loved ones share their home with her furry family which includes dogs, cats, chinchillas and rats. In her spare time she enjoys hiking with her dogs, reading and searching for that perfect cup of “Joe”.
Lisa
My name is Lisa, I have been a pet groomer for more than 7 years. I enjoy working on all breeds with a careful eye for detail and a loving touch. I specialize in working with elderly and disabled animals. My ultimate dream is to one day become a veterinarian. My best friend in the whole world is a mastiff mix named Monet.
