​Casara Andre, DVM, cVMA

Dr. Andre is the Founder and Director of the Colorado School of Animal Massage as well as one of the instructors.  She is a practicing veterinarian and veterinary acupuncturist.  

​Dr. Andre's veterinary practice is firmly established on the belief that a good treatment plan is one that is good for both the individual animal and that animal's human family.  A good treatment plan considers all contributing factors - age, activity, nutrition, environment - as well as the primary health concern.

Dr. Andre is a 2009 graduate for Virginia-Maryland Regional College of Veterinary Medicine.   While in veterinary school, she commissioned as an Army Veterinary Corps officer and has traveled the country providing veterinary service to military working dogs and the personally-owned animal of military families.
Her passion for building the veterinary community extends to supporting veterinary medicine in developing countries as well as at home.
​
Dr. Andre's volunteer work has taken her from Costa Rica, Nicaragua, to the Dominican Republic and Portugal, as well as throughout the United States and at home in Colorado.

Her favorite aspect of working in developing communities is witnessing the strength of the human-animal bond across cultural, language, political, and geographic boundaries.
​
Well-being for animals and people alike starts with education and access to compassionate care.

Starting with the working dogs under her care as a military veterinarian, to the tracking dogs of both civilian and government agencies and continuing with the search and rescue dogs of Colorado.  Dr. Andre has a special love for any "dog with a job".​​
Working dogs present a unique challenge to the veterinary practitioner with the need to provide exceptional care without interrupting that dog's ability to accomplish its "mission".
​
​She loves providing holistic veterinary care to working and sporting dogs as much as she enjoys providing first aid, husbandry, behavior and injury prevention training to their handlers.

Dr. Andre also serves her community as the Director of Cultivate Wellbeing, a co-working community supporting entrepreneurship among Healers, the Director of Veterinary Cannabis, the Director of Veterinary Psychedelics, the Founding President of Care for the Healer, the Veterinary Medical Directo for the Rocky Mountain Medical Reserve Corps, and Branch Director for the Front Range Veterinary Medical Reserve Corps.
