Our clients include: dogs, cats, all birds, ferrets, rabbits, reptiles, "pocket"pets, rodents, hedgehogs, sugar gliders, chinchillas, cavies (guinea pigs), pot-bellied pigs, and wildlife (foxes, wallabies, raccoons, skunks, weasels, prairie dogs, turkeys, peacocks, etc.)

We are very excited to announce the arrival of our newest colleague, Dr. Jennifer Walker. Some of you may remember Jennifer from many years ago when she worked with us as a pre-veterinary student at another clinic in town prior to purchasing Pennyroyal. We have known Dr.Walker for many years, and are excited to welcome her back “home”.

Principal doctor, Bianca Zaffarano, DVM , is a graduate of Iowa State University, 1986. She hosted an AM talk radio show broadcasting from Arizona and Rhode Island, The Animal Channel with Dr. Z. She has spent the last 12 years focusing on exotic animal medicine, and in 1997 purchased what is now Pennyroyal Small and Exotic Animal Hospital.

"Dr. Z is one of the best rabbit veterinarians I have found so far. Very thorough, very gentle, explains everything, follows HRS standards, stays up to date on latest rabbit medicine, reasonable in price and is a very kind and nice person. She spends the time necessary to talk to her clients because she is truly concerned about their rabbit's health. Her practice is mainly exotics (birds, rabbits, reptiles, hamsters, etc.) but she sees a small [number] of dogs and cats as well. She spayed my little girl Precious, examined Billiey for his one year exam, and consulted with me about Skip's jaw abscess (after I moved 625 miles away)...truly a TOP NOTCH, highly qualified rabbit veterinarian and has many good reliable rabbit veterinarian contacts as well!

Dr. Z has clients all over Kentucky and as far as Ohio and Indiana. She is extremely kind both to bunnies and people...very gentle in her examination of bunnies. Our Oliver never once has acted afraid of her. She recommends but does not insist on a particular test or treatment, especially if there is a large expense involved. She calls with test results and will recommend another vet if she is going out of town."
