Meet Our Staff
Jade Daenzer
Jade Daenzer, a native of Taylor, joined the Hutto Vet Clinic in 2008 and is a trusted and valued employee, very experienced in a variety of pet care and management procedures. Prior to coming to the Hutto clinic, she worked for three years at a long-time, small-animal practice in Georgetown where she became skilled at a number of techniques. She also spent about two years at a dog-training and boarding facility in the area.
Jade is the mother of a daughter, Alyssa, who started first-grade in Taylor in September 2009. They live in Taylor with their Hurricane Katrina rescue dog, Princess, and a Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter rescue dog, Wylder, in addition to a three-legged cat named Emmae.
Brandy Butler
Brandy Butler joined the Hutto Vet Clinic in spring 2010 as a receptionist/ veterinary technician.
Brandy began working with animals about 6 years ago at another Central Texas vet clinic. She later joined a vet clinic in Bastrop and eventually spent about a year at the Williamson County Regional Animal Shelter in Georgetown.
When the family moved to Marble Falls, she began commuting to a pet hospital in Spicewood Springs. Brandy then took a short break from working with animals to attend school and study to someday be an agriculture science teacher. “I will always love working with animals because it’s something new every day, and most animals love you no matter what, even if they’re having a bad day,” she said.
Brandy said her favorite part of the job is meeting in the exam rooms with the clients and the vet, to discuss the pet’s problems and figure out why a pet is not well.
Brandy and her husband, Russell, have four children, ages 7 to 11. They have two dogs: Bella, a Corgi; and Debo, a young pitbull mix that someone dropped off at the Hutto Vet Clinic. While Brandy loves cats, Bella does not, so the family is catless.
Christy Graham
Christy Graham joined the Hutto Vet Clinic in early 2010 as a receptionist and vet assistant.
Before joining the clinic, she trained dogs for 4 years at PetCo in Round Rock and Pflugerville. She worked with puppies and older dogs, teaching them basic skills, in addition to tricks. She even organized a pet fashion show at one point. Toward the end of her tenure, Christy began teaching new employees how to train canine clients
She started her animal career when she was 12 years old. She worked as a dog groomer at the Snooty Poodle, a bright pink dog salon in her hometown of Lake Jackson.
Christy later went through the vet tech program at Austin Community College in 2000, and then worked for several local vets, including a holistic and exotic practitioner.
She also worked at the Austin Humane Society for a while.
Christy and her husband, Michael, live in Pflugerville where they own a lighting/production company. They live with their dogs, Oona, a boxer/Catahoula mix; Stewie, a shaggy border collie; one lizard, Hoggle; and 3 fish tanks.
