Meet Our Team

Hi, everybody! I was born and raised in the beautiful island of Puerto Rico. I was blessed with wonderful parents that were very supportive and allowed me to build a strong bond with animals from a very young age. I've been practicing in the CSRA for the last 18 years and I get to call our wonderful town of North Augusta home. I currently have 4 dogs, one three-legged cat and a black-capped conure! I'm excited to be practicing back in North Augusta. Looking forward to meeting all of you and creating long- lasting relationships with you and your furry friends! When I'm not at work, you may find me walking my dogs on the greenway, paddle boarding on the river or spending time with my husband Jason.

Hello, my name is Brittany Effler. From a young age, I knew I wanted to work with animals. Upon working in this field for 16 years, I have grown a love for client/patient relationships. I have a deep passion for nurturing pets and their owners as they face their happiest moments and their hardest moments. I'm a compassionate veterinary assistant and customer service professional who is dedicated to promoting animal welfare and educating clients about their furry companions. When I am not working I enjoy spending time with family and my pups Koda and Knight. I also love spending time outside, kayaking, hiking, traveling, and learning new skills. I look forward to serving our community and their best friends!

Hi! I’m Lauren! Ever since I was a little girl, I have been passionate about animals, especially dogs and cats! My love and passion for animals led me to working with them! I love getting to know clients and their pets and helping clients in any way possible! When not at work, you may find me at home in my back yard with my chickens, or with my dogs and cats and my furless kids, ansleigh and brayden and my fiancé Brennen. I cannot wait to meet you and your pets! Helping to be the communication and voice for pets and their owners is why I work at BFAC!
