Grace

Grace joined the Rice Pet Clinic team in September 2025. She graduated from North Hennepin Community College with a degree in Biology and is currently continuing her education through Penn Foster to become a Veterinary Technician.

Before joining Rice Pet Clinic, Grace spent 2.5 years working at a cat shelter, where she developed a deep love and understanding for feline behavior. Wanting to gain more hands-on clinical experience, she transitioned into veterinary medicine and has been enjoying the opportunity to help patients feel comfortable and cared for during their visits. Grace is passionate about building positive experiences for anxious pets and helping clients understand their animals’ needs—especially since pets can’t tell us when something is wrong.

Outside of work, Grace loves exploring new places with her boyfriend, taking spontaneous drives to see where she ends up, and thrifting for unique clothes or furniture finds. At home, she enjoys spending time with her one-of-a-kind cat—who happens to love playing fetch!
