Dr. Tonelli-Raylove (Dr. Raylove for short) is originally from West Barnstable, MA. She found her passion for helping animals at a young age, which began with rescue pets (from Dwarf African Frogs to Poodle mixes) and helping injured wildlife as a young girl. She received her undergraduate degree from Becker College in 2018, became a certified veterinary technician (CVT), and worked as a lead technician at an emergency and specialty practice on the Cape for two years prior to veterinary school. She earned her veterinary degree from Midwestern University in Arizona in 2023. While she has loved the desert lifestyle during veterinary school, she is excited to return back home to Massachusetts and join the team at Gardner Animal Care Center! Dr. Raylove lives in Fitchburg, MA with her fiancé and two female cats (Mango and Miso). She loves biking, reading, knitting, and is learning to golf!
