SouthPark Animal Clinic Team

Dr. Dean Klenz is a veterinarian at South Park Animal Clinic and has been practicing for 20 years. He graduated from the University of MN. He enjoys all aspects of veterinary medicine.  Most of all, he wants to make sure pets have the best experience possible when going to the vet. Dr. Klenz enjoys visiting my daughter in Minnesota and helping my son work on his cars. He also likes to go hiking and camping when possible.

Hannah has been working at SouthPark Animal Clinic for 6 months as a receptionist. She prides herself in her customer service. Hannah is polite and genuine and keeps our clients happy and calm while their kiddos are taken care of. She loves being the first face they see and the last smile they see before they leave. In her spare time, Hannah enjoys taking photos of friends and family, crafting, hiking, and reading.

Jennifer is part of our Reception Team; her ebullient personality will draw you in and beg you to return with photos and stories about your pet. She worked for over 5 years at Broadway Estates Veterinary Clinic and became part of our original team when we opened our doors in May 2011. Jen’s personal concern for your pet will comfort you even during the most difficult clinic appointment. She loves photography and, in fact, an adorable shot of her pug, Billie, hangs just outside of Exam Room 1. Jen is a strong advocate for animals and gets involved with community events – perhaps you’ll bump into her next year at the Furry Scurry.

She attended school at Iowa State University and holds a bachelor’s in animal ecology, and biology, with associates in Forestry in addition to her Certified Veterinary Technician License.

She is passionate about wildlife conservation and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, her favorite turtle is Raphael because of his spicy personality. In her free time, she enjoys spending time with her dogs, Gus and Layla.

Hi, I’m Hannah, and I have been a Certified Veterinary Technician since 2018. I knew I wanted to be a vet tech from an early age. My love for animals comes from the fact that they selflessly love you no matter what. I currently have a Rottweiler named Sprocket. He came to me in my first job from an owner surrender due to his back issues. Sprocket reminds me everyday why I do what I do. I have also recently adopted two poodles. Lucky and Lady, that were owner surrenders. I cannot imagine not being able to help an animal, or their people, who have done so much for me.

​Peter is a native of Colorado and has worked in the animal boarding industry for the past 4 years. He is interested in the animal industry and joined our team in June 2020 and is eager to learn about animal healthcare.
