Dr. Zalud is a Jacksonville native who grew up with a love for animals. She got her start working in the kennel right here at Companion years ago and knew from then on that this was home to her. Dr. Zalud graduated veterinary school in 2009 and immediately returned to Jacksonville to begin practicing. She worked for the first 3 years practicing medicine, as well as doing relief work here at Companion. In December 2012, Dr. Zalud took over the business from Dr. Chambers

What reviewers say

93% Positive sentiment
based on 310 reviews

This veterinary practice delivers exceptional, compassionate care through a dedicated team of knowledgeable veterinarians and supportive staff. Pets are treated with remarkable gentleness and patience, creating a comforting environment that eases anxiety for nervous animals. The clinic provides thorough explanations, transparent care plans, and strong follow-up communication. While the physical facility is somewhat dated and building aesthetics are tired, families consistently trust the team for routine wellness, complex conditions, and sensitive end-of-life support.
