Dr. Barrett joined Moorpark Veterinary Hospital in 2009 and is now the practice owner. She is a San Diego native and Kansas State University College of Veterinary Medicine graduate.

Dr. Barrett’s favorite part of being a veterinarian is sharing the bonds people have with their pets. She has a particular passion for animal nutrition and internal medicine. She has also been instrumental in gaining Gold Status Cat Friendly Practice Certification for the hospital, making Moorpark Vet the first in Ventura County to acquire this level of achievement in cat care.

Dr. Barrett is dedicated to the Moorpark community and enjoys spending time with her husband, Chris, and twins, Zack and Carrie, when she is not working. She also runs a hobby farm at her home with 50+ animals!

Be the change you wish to see in the world.

My hobbies are…

trips to the mountains, horses, goats, chickens, and fresh water aquariums.

If I could have one more pet...

It would be another goat!
