Russell

Veterinary Assistant/Boarding Manager

Russell has been working in the veterinary industry for over 20 years, with most of those alongside the Salish Veterinary Hospital founding team. He has also spent time volunteering at PAWS Wildlife Rehab Center, further deepening his passion for animal care.

Russell and his wife, Bethany, share their home with a lively crew of pets—a Persian cat named Chippy, an American Shorthair cat named Sancho, a hospital rescue cat named Hvit, and a spirited Jack Russell Terrier named Guadalupe.

Outside of work, Russell is a bassist in a band that frequently performs around the Snoqualmie and Puget Sound area. He enjoys nature, camping, riding motorcycles, working on cars, home improvement projects, playing music, and, of course, caring for animals.
