Our veterinarians
Dr. Katy Thiffault, veterinarian
(Class of 2010, Université de Montréal)
My passion for pets dates back to my childhood, where I had the opportunity to grow up surrounded by several animals on a farm in the countryside. When I was nine years old, my German Shepherd injured his paw and we had to urgently consult a veterinarian. Seeing my dog safe and sound, I knew I wanted to become a veterinarian!
After graduating from university, I practiced for several years on the North Shore of Montreal until 2020, when I decided to take on new challenges by working in emergency care at a referral center surrounded by specialists.
With a strong interest in animal behavior, I decided to put forward my entrepreneurial side in 2023 by founding my own company to offer canine behavior consultation services.
To better serve the cats and dogs in my neighborhood while ensuring better follow-up for my behavior patients, I decided to open my own independent veterinary clinic in the Fabreville neighborhood of Laval, where I have lived for 7 years now.
I passionately care about animal welfare; I was named Veterinarian of the Year 2022 by The Canadian Association of Professional Dog Trainers. I am also Fear-Free certified.
