"Hands down the best vet in town! Dr. Rowe is kind, compassionate and as fair as they come. His staff is great also. We're always treated with respect by Dr. Rowe and I've never felt like he didn't have what was absolutely best for my pet in mind. They have great prices and a beautiful facility. Highly recommend."

Dr. Tim Rowe Veterinarian/Owner
I am tremendously excited and proud to open Timberline Animal Hospital. After providing veterinary care with a local Fort Collins Hospital since 2007, the time has come for me to bring my vision of veterinary excellence to life. My professional passions are dentistry, internal medicine, surgery, and developing trusting relationships with pets and their
people. My promise to you is to deliver compassionate care with outstanding service to both you and your pet and never lose sight of my core values as a veterinarian.
I earned my Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from Colorado State University in 2005 and was the recipient of The Pfizer Veterinary Specialty Team Award for Excellence and Clinical Proficiency in Internal Medicine. After graduation I moved to Northern California and practiced in a very busy hospital for two years. My family and I missed Fort Collins and we returned in 2007.
I grew up in Albuquerque and many of my family members still call New Mexico home. My wife, Heather, and I have three children and enjoy skiing, camping, hiking, playing games, and watching movies together. I am also a dedicated runner and am out on the trails early most mornings. Accumulating pets is an occupational hazard of being a veterinarian and our pet family consists of many dogs and cats (but I won’t say how many because the number can change at anytime) and a guinea pig.
Please stop by and let me give you a personal tour of Timberline Animal Hospital. I look forward to seeing you!

Nicky - Certified Veterinary Technician
I am a Fort Collins native who has always had a passion for animals. After high school I decided to attend Front Range Community College with the hopes of one day working with animals. I graduated in May 2013 with an Associates of Applied Science with a focus in Veterinary Technology. In November of that same year I passed the VTNE, Veterinary Technician National Exam, which gave me the opportunity to become a Certified Veterinary Technician in the state of Colorado.
Outside of the hospital, I love to spend time being outside, only when it’s warm, and enjoying the company of family, especially my beautiful 4 year old daughter, Mia. I have four pets of my own including three dogs Mischief, Pepper and Duke and a cat named Mizuno. I hope to grow as a technician, fine tune my technical skills, and be able to provide quality care to pets and their owners.

Katie - Veterinary Technician
I am from Fruita, CO, a small town on the western slope, where I grew up on a farm. I currently own three horses (Wayne, Rocky and Nelli) along with two dogs (Tuff and Molly) and several barn cats. I am currently a junior at CSU majoring in equine science with a minor in biomedical sciences. I am looking to go to veterinary school for equine medicine after I complete my undergrad program. I am planning on joining the Army after veterinary school and working as an army veterinarian on base. After that I plan on practicing equine medicine and hopefully living in Colorado. Outside of school and work I love to ride horses whether it be trail riding, moving cattle, or competitions. I also love to go camping, four-wheeling, and snowmobiling. My favorite thing to do is spend time with family whether it be doing any of the above activities or family game night. My passion for animals and medicine have inspired me to go into the veterinary field and I couldn’t be more excited for my future career.
Rachael - Veterinary Assistant
I recently moved to Fort Collins after finishing my Associate’s degree at Northeastern Junior College in Sterling, CO to finish my Bachelor’s in Animal Science at Colorado State University. I was on the collegiate Rodeo Team at NJC and although I am not on the Rodeo Team at CSU, I still love to visit and participate in Rodeos. I have always been interested in Veterinary Medicine, but had no experience working in an Animal Hospital prior to starting at Timberline Animal Hospital. I started as a Pet Care Aid and had the opportunity to work closely with our patients and now, as a Technician Assistant, I get to meet and work with the clients! Outside of work I love to spend time camping, fishing, and riding my horse, Hollywood. Working at Timberline Animal Hospital has provided many learning opportunities and experiences that have enabled me to grow in my job.
Zoe - Technician Assistant
My name is Zoe, I came to Fort Collins from Pennsylvania to attend Colorado State University for my undergraduate degree in Biomedical Sciences with a minor in Microbiology and I hope to attend CSU’s veterinary school after graduate. I am undecided about what specific field I would like to work in, however working here at Timberline Animal Hospital has increased my love for the small animal field. I have learned exponentially more here than I ever thought was possible for me during my undergraduate years. Working here has shown me that I love working with animals and medicine, and I hope that one day I can combine my two passions to provide the best patient care possible. Outside of work I enjoy drawing and ice hockey, and I have several wonderful animals including fish, a crested gecko named Godzilla, and my very spoiled cat named Bash.
Julia - Technician Assistant
I grew up in sunny California knowing that I wanted to become a vet from the age of four. I moved to Fort Collins in 2015 to attend CSU and study animal science. I always had pets growing up, from dogs and cats to fish and birds, which really allowed my passion for animals to blossom. I’m still not sure what my area of focus will be, but I love both large and small animals and am hoping to make that decision before I graduate from CSU. In my spare time I enjoy singing in my a cappella group, cooking, and going to the beach with friends when I’m back at home. I also enjoy traveling, I’ve been to almost 30 states and I love hiking/exploring whatever natural areas I can get my feet onto.
Paige - Technician Assistant
My name is Paige and I work fulltime at Timberline Animal Hospital as a Pet Care Aide with hopes of attending CSU to get my Masters in Biomedical Sciences. My main goal is to attend Veterinary School at CSU after getting my Masters. I moved with my cat, Paloma, to Fort Collins from Indiana, where I received my Bachelor’s Degree in Biology and Spanish. I love running, hiking, and doing anything in the mountains.
Carson - Pet Care Aide
I am currently a junior equine science major at CSU with a minor in business. Prior to CSU I attended a pre-conservatory art school where she majored in classical vocal performance. In my spare time I enjoy competing in upper level dressage on my horse, Indy. I also enjoy spending time with my two dogs, Bubba and Blue.
Silas - Greeter
Silas came to our hospital as a foster cat from the Fort Collins Cat Rescue after the floods in September 2013. He was thin and it was clear that he was in pain when he ate. Silas would sit crouched in the corner and our staff was concerned that there was something wrong with his teeth. After a dental assessment, it was clear that Silas needed a dental cleaning and dental x-rays were needed to assess his teeth. The x-rays showed that he had two teeth where the crown was separated from the root below the gum line. Three weeks after his dental and extractions, he was a new cat!
He started eating, gaining weight, and he started sleeping in his cat bed at the front desk. After three months as a foster cat, we all had become very attached to Silas. We decided to make it official and finalized his adoption with Fort Collins Cat
Rescue in late December. He is now an official resident of our hospital and a great greeter. Silas is the perfect hospital cat. He is oblivious to dogs, likes other cats and kittens, and REALLY likes our guinea pig patients. You will usually find Silas sleeping in his bed at the reception desk or he’s in the back basking in the sun next to the toasty autoclave. We look forward to years of Silas as
the official hospital greeter.
