Dr. Kaitlyn Johnson

Dr. Kaitlyn Johnson grew up in the small town of Gilbert, West Virginia, and went on to attend West Virginia University, where she earned her degree in Exercise Physiology. Initially planning to pursue human medicine, she discovered her passion for veterinary care during her senior year and shifted her path toward becoming a veterinarian. She graduated from the Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine in 2025.

Dr. Johnson now resides in the Mt. Ulla, North Carolina area with her lively household of six dogs—Zeus, Nala, Finley, Cherokee, Dolly, and Poppy—and her 18-year-old cat, Tawni. Her canine family includes three Shetland Sheepdogs, as well as a collie, a long-haired Chihuahua, and a spirited Pomeranian, many of whom were adopted.

Her professional interests include pediatric and geriatric medicine, theriogenology, soft tissue surgery, dentistry, and the care of pocket pets. She is Fear Free Certified and is passionate about creating a low-stress, compassionate experience for all of her patients.

​​​​​​​Outside of veterinary medicine, Dr. Johnson enjoys participating in Bible studies, spending quality time with friends and family, singing, playing tennis, kayaking, reading, and baking.
