Meet the Team of Mermaid Vet Hospital

Dr. Mosites (sounds like “bronchitis”) received his DVM from Ross University in 2015, after completing his clinical year at the University of Minnesota.

He practiced for several years as an ER veterinarian in San Antonio, TX before moving to Florida to open his own relief practice Lone Wolf Veterinary Services, LLC.

He enjoys traveling, spending time with his wife Dr. Reina Hagstrom and their dogs. He also enjoys reading comic books, building LEGO, the Minnesota Vikings and telling himself that someday, he’ll take up surfing.

In addition to his work with Mermaid Vet Hospital, Dr. Mosites continues to practice as a relief veterinarian and serves as a Captain in the Army Reserve Veterinary Corps.

She was born and raised in Tokyo, Japan, and moved to Idaho to complete her undergraduate degree.

Together with Dr. Mosites, she practiced several years as an ER veterinarian in San Antonio, TX before moving down to Florida.

Although not common among veterinarians, she is especially passionate about pet dental procedures and someday plans on opening a Mermaid dental clinic.

She enjoys traveling, spending time with the family, keeping up with Orange theory, and of course, transforming into a mermaid in the water!

Tiffany has been a technician for 22 years and enjoys it to this day for many reasons. It is anything but monotonous… Most days you never know what’s going to happen despite what it says on the appointment schedule. She enjoys getting to help our patients grow into healthy adults, and help them when they are feeling ill.

Tiffany also takes a special interest in surgery, especially when it means correcting a problem that prolongs our 4 legged family members lives.

Outside of work, Tiffany enjoys spending time outdoors with her family. Together, they go four-wheeling, boating, camping, and host events with their land conservation chapter of NWTF (National Wildlife Turkey Federation).

Sara has been a vet assistant since 2008.

She first realized she wanted a career in the veterinary field when she was 2 years old.

Sara has a passion for surgery, especially dental work. She loves that there is always more to learn and she strives to learn something new every day.

When Sara is not working she is either playing video games or spending time with family and friends.

She has a dog, a cat, 4 leopard geckos, a blue tongue skink, a California kingsnake, multiple fish tanks (both fresh and saltwater), and 2 axolotls.

Amy obtained her Bachelor’s in Veterinary Technology from Saint Petersburg College in May 2021. She has explored various avenues within the veterinary field, having worked as a Laboratory Animal Technician at the University of Miami, as an overnight emergency technician at a 24 hour ER, as well as a clinic manager at a local non-profit animal shelter. She found her passion within general practice and non-profit work interacting with, and helping, pet parents to provide quality care for their fur babies. 

Amy was raised in Miami, Florida and moved to Sebastian in 2014 to enjoy a more laid back lifestyle closer to the beaches. When not at work, she enjoys spending time with her son, going to the beach, gardening, crafting, running, or simply relaxing at home.

At home, Amy enjoys the company of, not only her son, but their 2 dogs (Indy and Athena), 5 cats (Shark Bait, 2Sox, Iris, Vader and Red Titian) and 2 Uromastyx (Bonnie and Clyde), as well as the fish in their 2 fresh water fish tanks!

On her day offs she enjoys spending time with her family whether going to an event or just cuddling on the couch watching a movie- she appreciates it all.

She doesn’t own any animals at the moment but your fur babies are her babies.

Megan was raised 19 years in Vermont, then moved to FL for college. She has a Bachelor of Science in Digital Arts & Design and an Associate of Science in Computer Animation. She has always had the love and passion for animals and now gets to work with dogs everyday. To be able to grow up with dogs always around and now get to learn and grow within the pet industry is very exciting to her and she can’t wait to see where it leads her. Megan also enjoys arts & crafts, outdoor activities, photography, cooking/baking, listening to music, watching movies, learning new things, and hopes to maybe travel someday to states/countries she would like to visit.

I’m Sheena, I was born in Waynesboro PA but, I spent most of my time growing up in FL. I moved to Vero about 6 and a half years ago and was excited to start a new chapter in my life. I’ve always loved animals growing up with Ferrets, Cats, Turtles, Bunnies, Guinea pigs, Snakes, Frogs, Fish, Hamsters, Hedgehogs and more but most importantly DOGS! I love dogs, they’re my favorite animals. I’m a fur mom of two adopted babies my lab, pittie mix and recently I adopted him a sister that’s a hound mix. My babies are my whole world and I like to show each dog that stays at our resort the same love and attention I would want my own dogs to have. I look forward to meeting and helping each of your fur babies to have a great stay at our resort!

Cristian has been in the veterinary industry for 8 years as a Veterinary assistant and receptionist. He enjoys interacting with clients and loving on their furbabies.

Jessica was born and raised here in Florida and loves all things Florida. She and her family moved to the area back in 2000, relocated to the Stuart area for a few years, and then realized they missed the calm of the Vero Area a few months ago. When not at work you can find her loving the outdoors, volunteering with youth organizations, spending time with family (husband, 3 sons, 1 daughter in-law and 2 granddaughters) and friends, or just enjoying a relaxing day at home with her 4 rescued fur babies (Marley – 13 yr old American Bulldog, Buddy – 6 yr old Lab, Lily – 5 yr old Three Legged Boxer, Sophie – 2 yr old Border Collie), unless it’s SEC Football Season…GO GATORS!!
