Meet Our Staff

With over a decade in the veterinary field, Brooke brings a wealth of experience from general practice to rehabilitation and emergency medicine. After spending five years at another Rocklin Parks practice in Auburn, she’s now here, passionately supporting our team and fostering strong connections with our clients and their pets. When she’s not at the hospital, you can find Brooke cheering on her daughter at softball games, paddleboarding on Lake Natoma, or hanging out with her many pets at home.

KJ has always had a knack for caring. Whether it's for humans or animals she's always been involved. KJ started working with animals at the age of 12, volunteering her weekends to work at Apex Farms. She continued her love for animals volunteering at wildlife rescues and then going onto Carrington College. Her life then took a different path, as she went on to caregive for elderly and disabled adults, but now she has found her way back to her true calling, animals! KJ currently has a shihtzu-maltese named Squish. In her free time you most likely will find her laughing at something, enjoying a walk, taking some nature photos, or singing her heart out.

Cameron graduated from UC Davis in 2025, where she developed a strong passion for wildlife conservation and research. Her studies took her abroad to Thailand and Indonesia, where she gained hands-on experience working with diverse ecosystems and species. Graduating with a degree in animal science, she says one thing that motivates her in veterinary medicine is her ability to connect with people through their pets.

Outside of work, Cameron enjoys spending time with her pets at home, reading, playing games, and hanging out with friends. She shares her home with two adorable guinea pigs and has a soft spot for exotic animals, reflecting her lifelong love for all creatures great and small.

Sherri brings over 35 years of experience to Bayside Animal Hospital, both in private practice and high-volume spay/neuter with her work at local animal shelters.

Madison comes to us with several year's of experience in both general practice and rehab, where she's found her passion. You'll find her here in the hospital working closely with Dr. Hansen during your pet's rehab visits, and on the general practice side either running rooms or monitoring anesthesia. 

Natalie is a veterinary assistant currently in school at Carrington College in their veterinary technician program. Natalie also believes strongly in giving back to the community, and regularly volunteers with feline spay and neuter clinics.

Natalie’s favorite part of vet med is helping patients feel safe and comfortable. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her two Labradors and wake-surfing at the lake.

Lauren entered the veterinary field in 2018 after a lifelong admiration for veterinary medicine. Her passion started in equine training and bovine medicine and grew to a much more broad desire to help animals both large and small. Her house is currently run by 3 rescue cats that ensure everything is up to their standards at all times. Her hobbies include reading, coloring, and learning about both local and worldwide history. 

Catheryne started working in the veterinary field in 2020, with 5+ years experience in emergency, ICU, and surgery.  Her favorite part is supporting patients through critical care cases and being part of a collaborative team. She also has a background in medical research and is a licensed phlebotomist.
