After serving her community for many, many years, the well-loved Dr. Susan Davison sold her business to WellHaven Pet Health in 2019 and no longer is practicing medicine. We began our journey at this hospital in March of 2021 and are loving serving this community. We are located in the beautiful-serene area of Lake Tapps on Veterans Memorial Drive across from the post office and
police/fire station. We have been working hard to refresh and update our hospital with more remodeling to come. We have learned a lot during Covid and found the quieter we keep our hospital the happier are patients are. Our lobby is closed to general traffic. When you arrive at our facility you will call to get checked in whether you are picking up medications or here for an appointment. We will then give you the option of coming in for your appointment or receive full curbside service. We look forward to seeing you and helping with your pet’s needs.

Dom joined Lake Tapps Veterinary Hospital in March 2024 and quickly became an integral part of our family. She has always had a deep love for animals and has dedicated her life to caring for them. Even as a child, she would take in stray animals and volunteer at shelters. After making a career change from customer service to animal rescue, she worked her way up from animal care to animal transport, even driving all the way to California to bring animals back to Washington for adoption. When she lost her job due to COVID-19, she continued to volunteer, particularly with horses and a donkey at a sanctuary. She eventually worked as a foster coordinator at a kitty rescue but hopes to return to shelter work in the future.
Feeling a strong sense of purpose, she decided to become a vet assistant and found immense joy in learning new skills to help animals heal and recover. She is eager to continue her education and become a vet tech specializing in animal behavior. When she’s not working with animals, she enjoys roller skating and has been involved in roller derby for 13 years.
Now retired from roller derby, she plans to use her free time to volunteer with animals, travel with her partner, and enjoy vacations with her dogs. Dom is looking forward to a fulfilling future where she can continue to advocate for the well-being of animals.

In her spare time, Stephanie enjoys playing and going on walks with her dog, Fang, who she named after Hagrid’s dog from Harry Potter. She’s also busy re-learning Spanish to become more fluent and is picking up sewing as a new skill. Maintaining a variety of hobbies keeps her occupied, and she especially loves taking care of her collection of houseplants. One of Stephanie’s passion is delving into her family lineage, which traces back to Guatemala and beyond. She finds her work most fulfilling when she’s building strong connections with clients and going the extra mile to cater to their needs.
