Jennifer Lowe
Practice ManagerJennifer has lived in the Union Hill area her whole life, growing up a few miles away from the clinic. She went to Hickory Flat elementary, Dean Rusk Middle School, and Sequoyah High School. She has been with us since October of 1993, so you can say she has grown up with us! We have watched her buy her first new car, have a clown ministry, get married, buy her first house and start her family. Jennifer says that her job with Union Hill Animal Hospital was/is a GIFT FROM GOD. Her Mom had always told her not to get in the car with strangers……..well there was this one day in September of 1993 when she did just that. She showed up for a scheduled interview with the founder of Union Hill Animal Hospital, Dr. Stephen F. Lee, and discovered he had forgotten about the interview.
So when he said just get in the truck and we will talk on our way to pick up some horse equipment, she did hear those words of her Mom but felt comfortable and safe from the beginning. The ride in that truck led to a great but short friendship. Dr. Lee was diagnosed with a second brain tumor early in 1994: he fought hard but he lost his battle on November 7th, 1994. In July of 1994, Dr. Lee and his family decided to sell the practice. After numerous inquiries, the clinic was purchased by Dr. Diane Castle in October of 1994 and another great friendship started. Dr. Lee’s only request was that Dr. Castle keep the staff, so the joke is that Jennifer was sold with the practice. Jennifer is very active in her Church; she headed up a clown ministry, puppet ministry, and led the youth group for several years, prior to falling in love and starting a family of her own. Jennifer met her husband, Mark in September, 2000 through her brother, Lamar. Mark and Jennifer were married in April of 2002. Mark grew up in Pickens County, he is just a good ole country boy. They had their first daughter Emmaline in November 2005 and their 2nd daughter Annslee in July of 2008. The girls also work at the clinic. With over 30 years with Hill Animal Hospital Jennifer still feels that this job is a GIFT from GOD!

Caityln Daniel
Veterinary TechnicianHi, I’m Caitlyn! I’m a tech who’s always loved being around animals, whether I’m at work or at home with my two dogs, cat, snake, and fish. I actually have a bachelor’s degree in animation, but my heart led me to animal care. I enjoy getting to know pets and their people and being part of their journey. Outside of work, I love drawing, creating, and finding new ways to enjoy time with animals of all kinds.”
Emmaline Lowe

Emmaline’s love for animals and veterinary care has always been a big part of her life. She is engaged to her best friend Zach, they are planning on getting married in May of 2026. Emmaline spends her days with a small farm of my own—two dogs (Deacon and Copper), seven cows (Duke, Mable, Gun Powder, Cinch, Tuff, Rivers and Elsie), one goat (Oakley), and ten chickens.
Jessica Quinn

A lifelong horse girl, she spends her time outside of work with her husband, toddler son, retired Paint horse Whiskey, baby Mustang Elliott, and her energetic yellow Lab, Macaroni Noodle (currently training to be her first sport dog!). Known for her “golden retriever” personality, Jessie brings warmth, energy, and a smile to everyone she meets.

Judy McKee
Lead ReceptionistWhoever said “You can’t teach an old dog new tricks” has never met Judy. Born and raised near the beach in Jacksonville, FL, she was often found in the water, riding her horse, Buck, or “gigging’ for frogs in the creek. The neighborhood critters always seemed to find their way to her house. Being the daughter of an English teacher, she and her brother Bruce always understood the importance of getting an education and she made her way to the University of Florida where she followed in her mother’s footsteps and received a BA in Developmental Psychology and Elementary Education. It was there, on her 19th birthday, that she was introduced to Bill. Judy and Bill began dating and got married right after graduation. They moved to Stone Mountain, GA, where she began her teaching career.
They had three children that became their pride and joy. Judy decided to become a stay-at-home mom and instilled the same values of education and respect in all of her children as her mother had in her. All three children went on to successfully complete college. Their youngest child, Tim, followed in both their footsteps into the business world as well as horse training. Their middle child, Colleen, followed in Judy’s footsteps with a passion for teaching and organization. Judy’s eldest child, Meghan, became a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. Many of you may not know but Dr. Meghan Stallings is Judy’s daughter. She and Bill have now been married for over years and spend their free time gardening together and spoiling their granddaughters Maridith, McKenzie and Mallory. When Dr. Stallings came back to the practice from vet school, Judy took the opportunity to get back into the working world with a position at the front desk. Despite her fear of computers, she enjoys talking with clients and helping ensure they and their pets have as comfortable an experience as possible. Judy truly is a case of “teaching an old dog new tricks.”
Denise McDonald
ReceptionistDenise has been a fun addition to UHAH since December 2019. Denise was born in Stuttgart, Germany and has lived many places being an Army Brat. Her Father retired in Augusta, Ga; Denise went off to earn a BS in Health Information Management from Emory University. She has worked at Crawford Long Memorial Hospital for many years before getting married and moving to North Carolina. Denise and her husband started showing their golden retrievers in performance events which started her dog addiction. One of Denise’s proudest achievements was helping to start the Pet Therapy Program at Duke University Medical Center, which she participated in for many years.
Currently Denise has a Golden Retriever, Blaze, who participates in agility, dock diving, rally, nose work, obedience, fast cat, lure cursing, hunt work and anything else that makes the dog happy. After 20+ years in the human medical field, Denise decided to combine her love for animals and her education…..she went to the dogs, working for the Dog Show Superintendents (putting on dog shows all over the country), pet sitting/farm, working for a gourmet dog food boutique and working at veterinary clinics. Following her husband’s death, Denise moved back to Georgia to be closer to friends and family. Denise’s first job offer after college was working at the Old Canton Hospital; however, Denise thought Canton was too far away from anywhere to live or work. Now, Denise is here loving, living and working in Canton, GA.
