Katie Jackson, DVM

Meet Dr. Katie Jackson, a dynamic vet who’s journeyed from the rolling hills of North Carolina to California’s Central Valley to the snowy settings of Vermont, expertly handling everything from cows, sheep, goats, llamas and alpacas to toy poodles. A Chapel Hill native and a double alumna of NCSU, Dr. Jackson completed an 8-year stint at her alma mater, earning a B.S. in Animal Science and then her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine in 2014. She is now back in the Raleigh area, juggling life with her husband, daughter and twin boys, while fondly remembering her beloved dogs, Honey and Kailey. She loves general practice for the variety and ability to focus on preventive medicine but also has a budding interest in dermatology. Dr. Jackson likes to combine humor with heartfelt care, ensuring everyone feels welcome. She is happy to have any uninterrupted free time at the moment and hopes to continue baking her way through life!

Julia Petrucci, DVM

Dr. Petrucci is a Wake County native who ventured south for her schooling and returned to the area in 2020 after receiving her Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine from the University of Georgia (Go Dawgs!) Now she lives in Fuquay Varina with her husband, daughter, and their dog Vinny. Dr. Petrucci is passionate about minimizing stress for patients in the clinic and pet parent education. Outside of the clinic you can find her toting her little one to parks and play dates, or sampling the iced coffee around town. Dr. Petrucci is so excited to be serving the community she grew up in and can’t wait to meet you and your furry family members!

“Just moved to the area recently was concerned about finding a new vet. I’m and happy to say I couldn’t be more thrilled with the care my dogs have received here. Everyone is so friendly and they are so thorough and considerate. They clearly love what they do and care about every pet that comes in the office.
