Dr. Jenna Cooper is from Orange County and grew up with a home full of pets. She went to Cal Poly San Luis Obispo with a major in Animal Science and graduated from Massey University with a degree in Veterinary Medicine in 2007.

When she graduated, she wanted to be able to handle any situation so she took a position at an emergency and specialty hospital and worked her way into one of the top facilities in West Los Angeles where she was an associate for 7 years before moving back to private practice in Orange County at OC Veterinary Medical Center for four years.

Being in these positions has provided her the knowledge and skills to provide top of the line care here at Banderas Pet Hospital.

She believes continued learning is an on-going commitment to her career and she is an active member of the Southern California Veterinary Medical Association and California Veterinary Medical Association. She attends clinics and regular seminars every year.

Dr. Cooper has a strong belief in prevention of disease and advocates always for the best care for your ‘pet kids’. Today preventing health conditions before they occur is the best medicine.

Accidents and illness still occur, and when they do, she is highly trained in emergency and critical care to keep you from needing a trip to the emergency after-hours hospital- keeping all of your pets health records and care in one place when possible.

Dr. Cooper and her husband, Daniel, have two clever daughters – Kate and Holland, and two dogs – Samantha and Odin.

The “Pet Kids”: Samantha, is a rescue husky-shepherd cross from Canada- she smiles when she is in trouble and allows the kids to dress her in scarves and tutus on a regular basis.

Odin is a Rottweiler, affectionately referred to as ‘odin-weiler, happy-weiler, hungry-weiler and when he is in trouble ‘no-din’ who can be seen looking after the children like something out of the ‘Good Dog Carl’ books.

Today, Allie is an efficient manager and skilled technician.

Allie spends her free time with her husband and pets, Boots, an American Pitbull Terrier, Lilo, a Labrador-Pitbull mix, and her Quarter Horse, Molly.
