Dr. Jaime Moore graduated from Indiana University with an undergraduate degree in Biology in 2010. After taking a gap year to work in veterinary clinics, Dr. Jaime attended Purdue University where she graduated with her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine degree in 2015. Following graduation, she completed a rotating small animal internship at the University of Illinois. Dr. Jaime worked in Indianapolis in emergency and general practice for 7 years before joining The Neighborhood Veterinarian in 2022.

From a young age, Dr. Jaime knew she wanted to be a veterinarian. Her family moved to the US from England when she was young. She grew up with horses and initially was interested in equine medicine before transitioning to a love of small animal medicine in veterinary school. Her clinical interests include cardiology, endocrine diseases, and wound management.

In her free time, Dr. Jaime enjoys spending time with her family, doing yoga, cycling, and gardening. She lives in Broad Ripple with her husband, Kyle, their children, Bensen and Ella, and their jolly rescue dog, Huckleberry.

Annie graduated from Purdue University in 1998 with a degree in Aquatic Sciences. Her love for freshwater fish changed to furry animals when she took her first job in the bacteriology department at The Animal Disease Diagnostic Lab at Purdue. Another career change came with a move to Indianapolis where she started as a Veterinary Assistant and has been with The Neighborhood Veterinarian since opening in 2021. Over the last several years Annie has become a familiar face to the clients and patients. She oversees many of the daily responsibilities of the staff as well as a direct contact for client communications. Annie has a soft spot for puppy behavior and senior pet wellness.

Annie lives in Carmel with her devoted husband and two human boys that keep her on her toes. You will often find a slew of whippets in tow as well! Most weekends are spent watching her kids play sports, whippet racing, running, sewing and enjoying her husband’s cooking. Annie is a member of The American Whippet Club, Indiana Whippet Club, Whippet Pay It Forward, neighborhood HOA and Sunday school teacher.

Additionally, Amy has proudly served on the board of directors for Our English Setter Rescue for the past 7 years, helping advocate for and support these incredible dogs. She shares this wonderful life with her husband and pack of pups 💜

Lace has been a team member of The Neighborhood Vet since 2016. She earned her Registered Veterinary Technician degree in 2017 from Harrison College. Since she was a little girl, born and raised in Indianapolis, she aspired to some day work with animals. She began her journey when she worked with horses in Downtown Indy as a carriage driver - and this position inspired her to pursue a degree in veterinary medicine as a veterinary technician. She has taken courses in Fear Free certification so she can help every patient with decreasing their anxiety and stress with vet visits - sometimes this involves a soothing distraction of head scratches or a perfectly timed cup of frozen peanut butter! In her free time, she enjoys concerts and amusement parks with her amazing husband, building Lego sets, taking group fitness classes at her local gym, watching scary movies, and waiting for her favorite season - Autumn. She enjoys snuggle time with her dog, a pointer-pit mix named Sweetpea, and two cats, a gray tabby named Tony and an orange tabby named Paul Akkities.

Janies has been working in animal medicine for over 10 years as a veterinary assistant, and truly loves the profession. She enjoys caring for animals and helping them feel as comfortable as possible during their visits. When not at work, you'll usually find her 3D printing, fishing, cooking, or hanging out with her family-including two cats, Zero and Biscuit, and dog, Booya.

Kourtney has been working in veterinary medicine since high school, building a strong foundation in both general practice and emergency care. She currently splits her time between the fast-paced environment of a 24-hour ER and The Neighborhood Veterinarian, where she joined the team in August. Outside of work, Kourtney enjoys spending time with her boyfriend, Ryan, and their three dogs—Rebel, a Standard Poodle; Alan, a Toy Poodle; and Bronn, a Bernedoodle.

I don’t want this announcement to be interpreted as a “good bye”! Indianapolis is my home, and I plan on being available as much as I can to help Dr Moore and the staff make this transition as smooth and easy as possible. And, even though I’m not seeing your pets anymore, I hope that if our paths cross anytime or anywhere in this town you will always feel comfortable enough to share a greeting and hug….and I promise to do the same!

Again, thank you for all your support and trust across the years that has helped The Neighborhood Veterinarian become a successful member of our local community. And, thank you so much for all you have meant to me, allowing that third grader from many years ago to be able to live her dream❤️
