Tammy Davis is a graduate of the University of Tennessee Knoxville with a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Biology/Animal Science. She worked as a veterinarian assistant for over 12 years and spent many years in retail as a manager at PetsMart and the store manager of Bed Bath & Beyond.

She knew from a very young age that she wanted to spend her life saving animals. Growing up as an only child, her pets were like her siblings. It is her dream to one day open a low-cost spay/neuter clinic in the Tri-Cities area to eliminate the number of unwanted pets born every year.

As Executive Director of the WCJC Animal Shelter, her ultimate goal is to make a real difference in the lives of the animals in our community. She hopes to eliminate the needless pain and suffering of homeless animals and to be the “voice” that protects all animals.

Dr. April Fitzgerald obtained her DVM from the LSU School of Veterinary Medicine in 2009 after transitioning from a 5 year career teaching high school biology. Upon graduation from LSU, she was drawn to the mountains, climate and kind residents of the Tri-Cities area.
