Kim Jensen

DVM

Dr. Kim Jensen grew up in Whatcom County with a deep passion for animals, which inspired her to pursue a career in veterinary medicine. From exhibiting 4-H animals at county fairs to volunteering at the humane society and patrolling neighborhoods to help animals in need, Kim’s childhood was shaped by her love for animals. She worked as a veterinary assistant throughout her undergraduate years, which laid the foundation for her future career.

Kim graduated from Ross University School of Veterinary Medicine (St. Kitts, West Indies) in 2003 and has always maintained a love for international travel. Since earning her degree, she has worked as a small animal practitioner in Bellingham, including several shifts a month at Animal Emergency Care. Kim also volunteers with Bellingham’s Project Homeless Connect and has coordinated vaccine, spay, neuter, and rehoming services for street populations of cats and dogs in Marietta.

Dr. Jensen is passionate about all areas of veterinary medicine but particularly enjoys soft tissue surgery, emergency medicine, geriatric canine care, pocket pets, and backyard chickens. Outside of work, Kim enjoys spending time with her five dogs—Spencer, Wasabi, Chandler, Stevie, and Chispa—and her horses and cats. In her off time, she loves hiking with her dogs and riding horses with her two kids, Samantha and Porter.
