Kim Taylor

Veterinary Technician

Kim moved around quite a bit as a child, and her family’s Cocker Spaniel quickly became her best friend in the world. She cannot remember a time in her life when she wasn’t caring for pets! When the opportunity arose for her to enter the world of veterinary care, she didn’t hesitate. Now, Kim is proud to serve the pets and animal owners of Indianapolis as one of 30th Street Animal Hospital’s Veterinary Technicians.

Kim began her animal-care journey in DeLand, Florida, where she started working for a boarding kennel. She would remain there for the next seven years, developing a foundational knowledge of veterinary medicine that serves her well to this day. Next, Kim moved to North Carolina and signed on with a local clinic, learning even more from her boss and close confidant who had previously worked as a professor of veterinary medicine at Ohio State University.

After relocating to Indiana, Kim joined the 30th Street Animal Hospital family in January of 2006. She’s been serving the pets and animal parents of the area ever since—Kim especially enjoys performing dental procedures and forming lasting bonds with her patients and their owners. She’s also an avid pet foster parent, and is proud to have successfully raised, fostered, and re-homed hundreds of kittens over the years!

Kim and her husband have six children between them, as well as multiple grandchildren. They share their home with one cat, Romeo, as well as three dogs. When she isn’t spending time with her family and pets or tending to the area’s animal companions here at the clinic, Kim can be found relaxing with a good book or tending to her garden.

Charlotte Sherman

Registered Veterinary Technician

Ever since she was young, Charlotte has been passionate about animals great and small. Steve Irwin was her biggest role model, and she dreams of eventually working with wild animals in some capacity. While she considers herself a cat person, she still loves dogs, she also loves rats, ferrets, snakes, lizards, and birds. She’s been a vet tech since 2016, but recently joined the staff here in 2021.

Despite being born in California, she was raised in Indianapolis since she was 4 years old-even at a young age she wanted to work with animals, her first job idea being “pet detective”. Her first pet was a rat named Blackberry. She went through the Perry School District, and then went to International Business College’s Vet Tech Institute, graduating in 2015, and becoming licensed in 2016. She worked at a clinic down on the southside after graduation, until 2020, when the doctor shut the practice down, then started working at Indyvet. She missed the connection with clients that she got in GP, so when Dr. Speiser mentioned he had an opening for a technician at 30th street, she jumped at the opportunity.

When she’s not working at the clinic she’s playing video games, singing off key, or playing with her pets. She has 5 cats–9 year old male Bagheera, 9 year old female Sheva, 3 year old females Dinah and Freya, and 4 month old female Isis–and 2 dogs–10 year old male Chihuahua/Dachshund mix Toby, and 1 year old male mini poodle Merlot.

Kirsten Southwood

Technician Assistant

Hello, my name is Kirsten Southwood. I have been working at 30th Street Animal Hospital for little over a year now as a Veterinarian Technician Assistant. Prior to taking on this amazing opportunity here, I spent my time working at Animal Care and Control Services as an adoptions counselor and a volunteer. Before I got to where I am now, I was just a little girl working hard in school with hopes to save animal lives someday. I have come a long way from being a little girl with dreams. I have accomplished little over 3 years of college now where I will finish with a bachelor’s degree in Biology, and find myself attending Veterinarian Technician School this October where I will be adding onto my skills. Throughout my journey I have somehow miraculously accumulated two dogs, two cats, and two ferrets… and I don’t plan to stop there!

Rachel

Rachel Stucky

Technician Assistant

Rachel has always had an interest in animals and nature, but she truly learned the impact of the human-animal bond when her family adopted their first dog when she was in high school. With a passion for life sciences, Rachel started college at Purdue University in 2017. Rachel was intending on going into medical research, but quickly realized she wanted a career with more spontaneity and hands-on work. She found a passion for veterinary medicine and has been working towards her goal of becoming a veterinarian ever since. She is currently a member of the Purdue University DVM Class of 2025.

When she isn’t at school in West Lafayette, Rachel spends time in her home city of Indianapolis, where her family still lives. Rachel isn’t sure exactly what type of veterinary medicine she wants to practice, but she is looking forward to whatever path she decides to take! Rachel loves working with the patients and clients at 30th Street on her school breaks. Her favorite parts of the job are learning new skills from the doctors and technicians, getting to know clients, and helping hospitalized patients make it back home.

In her free time, Rachel enjoys caring for her extensive houseplant collection, hiking in state parks, and spending time with friends and family. Rachel’s only personal pet is a ball python named Ursula, but she also spends time with her family’s labrador/pit bull mix, Jovie, every chance she gets! Rachel has a feeling that she will end up with another pet or two during her time in veterinary school.
