She is a native Texan but moved to Austin following a short stint in New York City where she discovered her allergy to extreme freezing temperatures. She holds a BA in Theatre Arts hence her natural progression into the veterinary industry (in all honesty, she grew up aspiring to be a veterinarian). She is the youngest of four ridiculously overachieving siblings and has a cross eyed Himalayan mix named Casper (AKA ‘Thunder Paw’). She is an avid balcony gardener where only a handful of her wards have met their untimely demise. She tentatively refers to herself as a banjo player but if she be judged by Casper’s simultaneous wailing, not a terribly lyrical one.

Katie

Katie

Katie is a new member of the Allandale team as of October 2020. She grew up in the DC area with a passion for animals, and followed that pathway to veterinary medicine. After graduating from Penn State with a BS in Veterinary and Biomedical Science, Katie moved down to Austin, Texas to start her career in the vet world. She started her work in the animal world by pet sitting and walking dogs in high school, moved into wildlife rehabilitation in college, and in Austin has worked in dog training and now veterinary medicine. She loves all branches of vet med, but is most passionate about preventative care for the patients she sees. 

Katie lives with her boyfriend Tyler and their Great Dane Ted, and hopes to eventually add even more big dogs to her family. In her free time, she loves to be outdoors- paddle boarding, hiking, and enjoying the Austin weather at the pool.

Dr Baker is simply amazing and so compassionate with animals and people”

I don't think I could've found a better clinic for my fearful, untrusting dog. They are WONDERFUL with him, as he came to me with some issues. They are so patient and are able to get everything done that needs to be done with him. They always go over what he needs or doesn't necessarily need to be done at that time, and explains the costs beforehand. I couldn't be more pleased with everybody at this clinic!!”

I take my elderly client's pets to Allendale Vet Clinic. They are so very kind and communicate with her to check on how her dudes are doing after surgery or procedures. All the staff are friendly and efficient!”

First in person/pet visit in 16 months. Dr. Baker and staff highly professional, efficient and friendly. I've been bringing all my animals to Dr. Baker more than 15 years.”

We’ve been taking our various cats to Allandale for about 25 years now, and have always received thoughtful and attentive care. They are professional, caring, and supportive. They have helped with many serious illnesses and, when it was time, crossings over the rainbow bridge. They have helped our kitties lead proactive, healthy lives. Highly recommended.”
— Melinda R.
They did a great job taking care of our cat and fixing up his teeth. He's much happier now.”

This place is awesome and very accommodating! I took my dog here yesterday to get all of his shots redone and some lab work. It was our first time here, and my pup gets anxious and reactive at the vet. I told the receptionist this when we checked in and she said we could wait in the car and they would come out to get us when we were ready. It was so sweet! When the vet tech came to get us, she brought us through the back so we could minimize any stress for my dog.”
