Our Veterinary Team in Raleigh, NC

Dr. Taylor earned her undergraduate degree in Biology & Psychology from Virginia Tech in 2006. She then went on to accomplish her Doctorate in Veterinary medicine from Western University of Health Sciences in 2010. As a child, Dr. Taylor grew up in New Hampshire and New Jersey where she developed a love for animals with her numerous pets and knew at a very young age that she wanted to become a veterinarian. Dr. Taylor loves getting to know her clients and their beloved pets and has a special interest in Dermatology, Dentistry and Internal Medicine. She is also certified to perform PennHIP radiographs and the JPS procedure on dogs that are predisposed to Hip dysplasia.

When she is not at work, Dr. Taylor loves spending time with her family. She also has a Siberian husky/Pitbull mix named Gryff, a Maine Coon named Grimm and her daughter’s Holland Lop bunny named Snowy. In her spare time, she enjoys skiing, working out and traveling to new places!

Dr. Butler loves animals and taking care of them and their families. Growing up in a farm setting, she has always been surrounded by dogs, cats, cows, and chickens. She spends a lot of time outdoors, too, and loves to watch animals in nature. At one point, she even considered becoming a marine biologist due to her love of snorkeling and scuba diving. Yet, she decided on a veterinary career and received her DVM from North Carolina State University in 1996. As a vet, she very much enjoys solving problems that help pets heal and feel better. The most rewarding part is nourishing the bond between humans and their pets; it’s such a pure love.

In her spare time, Dr. Butler loves paddling (kayaks, canoes, paddle boards), camping, and hiking, especially with her kids and her dogs! Despite all her career accomplishments, her kids are what she’s most proud of.

Dr. Allison Sanders brings a unique background to veterinary medicine, having first built a career in the nonprofit arts sector before pursuing her lifelong passion for animal care. With a foundation in both the arts and business, she offers a thoughtful, compassionate approach to veterinary practice.

Dr. Sanders enjoys forming meaningful relationships with pets and their people, and is especially interested in dentistry, geriatric care, and nutrition. She is committed to providing high-quality, individualized care that supports the health and well-being of her patients at every stage of life

Outside of the clinic, Dr. Sanders enjoys spending time with her husband, Brad, and their beloved rescue dog, Eowyn, along with two cats, Elphaba and Harrowhark, who keep things lively at home. Her hobbies include hiking, reading (she’s in three book clubs!), and baking. She is proud to be part of the Bowman Animal Hospital team and looks forward to continuing her work in a community that shares her love for animals.
