GRACE BALMEDIANO

Her animal welfare journey began at the wee age of five; re-homing a relative’s dog into her family’s home. Since then, she’s never been without animals: rabbits, quails, backyard frogs, chickens, roosters, birds, fish, cats, and dogs. She has a background in hotel management, transferring these skills to the SF SPCA, where she supervised client services in the spay/neuter clinic. After 12 1/2 years with SF SPCA, she’s happy to reunite with Dr. Goh, Robin and Erin at AFC. Grace lives with her almost 16 y.o. Boston terrier: Seamus Nolan Rhino, a 2 y.o. daredevil pug: Ringo BamBam, and a 33 y.o. turtle: Sir Lancelot.
