Dr. Pete Kvarnstrom—fondly known as Dr. K—brings decades of veterinary experience and a lifelong passion for animals to our clinic. Raised in rural coastal California, he studied Animal Science at UC Davis and later earned his DVM from the UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine in 1994.
Originally drawn to large animal medicine, Dr. K’s path shifted after meeting his future wife, leading him into small animal practice. He managed his own hospital in Orange County before joining the U.S. Army Reserves in 2020, where he served as a field veterinarian caring for military working dogs and supporting food safety missions overseas.
Now rooted in the Texas Hill Country, Dr. K lives on a Fredericksburg ranch with his wife Stacy, their two college-aged kids, and their dog, Buddy Snuggles.
