Cheyanne Pirtz grew up in the Eugene and Springfield area and has had a lifelong love for animals. From a young age, she was surrounded by pets and farm animals, including dogs, cats, hamsters, bunnies, chickens, and pigs. Being immersed in animal care early on helped shape her passion for working with animals and reinforced her desire to build a career where she could care for them every day. Cheyanne’s hands-on experience and genuine compassion make her a valued member of the hospital team.

At home, Cheyanne shares her life with her Golden Retriever, Daisy May, who is two years old. Daisy May is known for her energetic personality and her adorable habit of spinning counterclockwise when she gets especially excited. Outside of work, Cheyanne enjoys spending time outdoors, drawing, and making memories with friends and family. Her love for animals—both personal and professional—shines through in everything she does.
