Get to know Darci!

Meet one of our Technician Supervisors- Darci Hoefer.  Darci is a native Arizonan (yes they do exist!).  She continues to reside in the valley with her husband and two children, as well as 3 dogs (Blaze, Princess, and Penelope), and a cat (Simon).  

Darci has over 14 years experience in the veterinary field and is a Certified Veterinary Technician.   She has been with 1st Pet since 2010 and has enjoyed the diversity of cases seen in emergency medicine.   

Darci readily gets attached to her patients and cares for them as if they were her own.  One of her most memorable cases was a Labrador that came in with heatstroke.  Not only did the Lab have heatstroke, but also burned all four paws and a sunburn severe enough to cause her skin on her back to slough.  

This patient spent many days in the hospital and required intensive care- but it was worth it to see her walk out of the hospital a happy dog with no long-term issues!  When Darci is not at work she enjoys spending time with her family camping, hiking, boating, and playing sports of all kinds. 

 We are so glad to have such a skilled and caring Technician as Darci on our team here at 1st Pet!
