Veterinarian

Dr. Jessica Everett joined the Higganum Vet team in 2025. After graduating from the University of Missouri College of Veterinary Medicine, Dr. Everett was very excited to return to her home state of CT where she has been practicing ever since. She has a broad range of experience, including general practice, emergency and critical care, and home euthanasia. She believes all pets deserve access to quality care, and she is committed to providing caring, thorough, and individualized care to pets during every stage of their life. Professionally, Dr. Everett’s interests include urgent care, internal medicine, surgery, and compassionate end of life care. She has received special certifications as a Fear Free Certified Professional, Certified Peaceful Euthanasia Veterinarian and is also certified by the Reassessment Campaign on Veterinary Resuscitation (RECOVER) in CPR: Basic and Advanced Life Support. Outside of work, you can find her on the soccer field, cheering on the UConn women’s basketball team, or spending time with her family which includes two rescue pets: a naughty pug mix named Phoebe and a sweet orange cat named Liam.
