Dr. Carla Rodrigues graduated from Montclair State University in her home state of NJ with a Bachelor of Science degree focused in the field of Biology with a minor in English Literature. She graduated with a Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from Ross University's School of Veterinary Medicine in 2013, in St. Kitts, West Indies. Working as a dedicated assistant for 8 years prior to attending veterinary school brings a great deal of depth to Dr. Rodrigues' appreciation of the human-animal bond. In addition to the studies in St. Kitts, Dr. Rodrigues has pursued veterinary medical studies at the University of Minnesota, Manhattan, Switzerland, Lake Tahoe, Vancouver, and South Africa. Dr. Rodrigues believes in expanding her capability in practice as much as she can, allowing her to offer her patients more options when possible, especially when it comes to seniors, comfort, and quality of life. Dr. Rodrigues earned her specialization as a Certified Canine Rehabilitation Practitioner from the University of Tennessee in 2015, along with her certification in Acupuncture from the Chi Institute in 2017.

Rachel joined the Pet Paradise family after having worked in the veterinary field for over 5 years. She advocates strongly for preventative pet care and has a passion for working closely and engaging with her team. Rachel enjoys hiking or going to the park with her wife, Hannah, and their 5 month old son, Remington. They share their home with their pets, Stew the chinchilla, their dog, Kingston, their long haired cat, Willow, and their two fish, Bruce and Buoy.

I've been married to my wife Bonnie for 25 years. I have two sons, Awsten who is 24 and in his 3rd year of college and Brandon who is 19 and in his first year of college. We have a 4 year old Rottweiler named Storm. I've been in the restaurant industry most of my life, starting as a bus boy and working my way to Regional Manager. My entire family loves being outside on our 4-wheeler's and Jet ski's. Our dog Storm's favorite thing to do is run along the beach and chase us while we ride our Jet Ski's. I look forward to building relationships with the fur kids and customers at Pet Paradise!

Sarah Ramirez has been a part of the Pet Paradise family for two years and counting. Starting out as a resort associate and working her way up through the team, she is now Assistant Manager at the Bartram location. Sarah is passionate about all animals, not just dogs! Through the years, she has assisted her family and friends in rehabilitation of wildlife and plans to continue to pursue this hobby - along with taking care of your fur-babies! She has four fur-babies of her own: three dogs, Bailey, Dixon & Ben, along with a cat, Rafiki, and a not-so-fury turtle, Santiago! It's not uncommon to have the additional foster, also! Sarah thinks the best part of her place in the Pet Paradise family is becoming a part of each and every one of your families along with it.
