She moved back to Gig Harbor in 2006 and has completed the journey home by joining Kitsap Veterinary Hospital once again, this time as a veterinarian experienced in small animal medicine, general surgery and dentistry. She finds the most joy in bonding with her patients and their families and sharing in their journey through all the phases of life. When away from the clinic, Dr. Hoover enjoys spending time with her husband of 15 years and their three children. They share their home in the country with a Labrador mix named Nero, and two cats, Mudgie and O’Malley.
