Dr. Shauna Mead
Veterinarian
She attended Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine in the Caribbean and found another love: the ocean. While in veterinary school she was a leading member of PAWS (People for Animal Welfare on St. Kitts), which included being a foster to multiple dogs. After spending her last year of veterinary school at Cornell University, her fiance and multiple four-legged children ventured to San Diego. A year was spent at California Veterinary Specialists doing a rotating internship focused on small animal medicine, surgery, and emergency. Since completion of the internship in 2010 she has worked as an associate general practitioner and as an emergency clinician, as well as welcomed her first daughter into the world.
All areas of veterinary medicine are of interest; currently, she is focusing on strengthening her ability to perform ultrasounds. On days off she plans to help Dr. Hatt with spay/neuter release programs, surf, hike, and establish a home in beautiful Hawaii.

Hello, I’m Dr. Laura Harrington. I was born and raised in Dublin Ireland where I attended the University College Dublin for vet school. I spent the first few years of my career in Ireland working in various busy small animal and emergency hospitals. I really enjoy internal medicine and particularly love working with feline patients ! Outside of work, I love to travel. My wife and I have been to over 16 countries in the past 2 years including Peru and Egypt! We also love to cook and spend time relaxing with our beautiful one eyed cat, Bell. I look forward to exploring Oahu and bringing some Irish charm to Animal House Veterinary Center.
Executive Team
Jessica
Executive Director
But who am I outside of work? I am married to my high school sweetheart and we have 3 loveable furbabies! I have my goofball Lab, Odell, who is the biggest snugglebug I’ve ever met. I have my old lady Australian Shepherd, Maggie May, who was my husband and I’s first baby. And I have an anti-social black cat, Tekka Maki, who just really prefers you leave her be. My husband and I are passionate about traveling and do it as often as we can! I’ve been all over the world, and have wrapped our love of travel into one of my biggest personal goals – To run a marathon in every state! So far, I am 12 states in and the journey has taken me to some pretty phenomenal places that I may not have considered otherwise. When I am not traveling or running (Which admittedly is rare), I am hiking, biking, beaching, or exploring local craft breweries and wineries.
Thanks for taking the time to get to know me a little bit. Pop on in and say hi! I love to get to know our clients! I look forward to meeting you and your fur babies!

Kristy
Technician
Hi!! My name is Kristy, and I started my veterinary career in South Carolina as a kennel tech. After 3 months, I was offered an opportunity to learn beside a veterinarian on how to be the best vet tech I could be. My first experiences were with cats,dogs,porcine,rabbits, and many other exotic animals, including but not limited to hawks,eagles,and reptiles of all kinds. When I was about 5 years old, I would tell everyone my dream job was to be a veterinarian. After 8 years of veterinary technician experience, I knew that what I truly enjoyed was to be the person taking care of animals’ hands-on. I currently have a 2-year-old German shepherd and 3 lovely cats. I recently moved to Hawaii from Oregon state. I enjoy spending time with my little family, sun bathing, or doing resin art on my days off.

My passion for animals grew and decided to continue on becoming a vet assistant. I am now in Hawaii with plans continuing my education in veterinary medicine . On my down time, when I’m not caring for my patients, I love to be out in nature whether it be on the water paddle boarding or hiking through trails.

Client Care & Technician
Maratha
Client Care & Technician
I have been working in the veterinary field for over 15 years. I never imagined doing anything else as a career. The first time I felt the passion for the veterinary field was at the age of 7. I remember placing a bandage on a garter snake my cat had just caught. I was hooked. I knew at the moment I wanted to spend my life caring for animals. When I am not working, you’ll most likely find me spending time with my family. My husband Carl and I love to hike, hit the beach, and play disc golf. Our son Aiden is almost always with us as well. Evenings we like to hangout with friends and enjoy our weekly trivia nights. If we have the opportunity we try and catch whatever performance may be in town, especially live music, but I’ll never say no to a broadway show in Honolulu. On the quiet nights I like to curl up by the TV with my 2 senior dogs Rusty and Honey Bee. I also, have a cat Harley that loves to purr and knead on my tummy while I’m trying to sleep. But I wake up every morning excited to continue my journey with Animal House Veterinary Center. And, I look forward to seeing my coowrkers and all our wonderful clients.
