Stephanie Parvin

Receptionist

I’m originally born and raised in Southern California, I moved to Castle Rock, CO in 2010 with my 2 daughters and have gratefully established my roots here.

I am a proud owner of 2 Great Pyrenees Zeus and Zena, who love to play outdoors and go on adventures in the forest. I also have a sweet kitty named Raven, she loves catnip and snuggles.

When I am not working at Castle Pines Vet, you will find me outdoors in nature, so I’m most likely out on an adventure in the mountains or playing in the water.

I think that the greatest thing about working with animals is they are so full of vibrancy, life, and love, working with them brings such great joy to my heart.

Sommer Nichols

Receptionist

I’m originally from Northern California, but moved to Colorado shortly after my husband and I were married. In my spare time you can usually find me working on DIY projects or crafts. Im a big Disney fan and love anything Lucille Ball.
