Meet Our Doctors
dR. TIMOTHY BILLS, DVM
Medical Director/Managing DVM
Dr. Tim developed a love for animals at an early age, which was reinforced at age seven when he would occasionally “run away” (to the front of the neighborhood), waiting for his mom to get home. All the dogs in his rural neighborhood followed and joined in his solitude to lend their support. Tim went on to graduate from St. George’s University in 2015 after completing his clinical year at the University of Florida. Tim has been a practicing small animal veterinarian in Colorado since 2016. His professional interests include soft tissue surgery, internal medicine, and dermatology.
Outside of being a veterinarian, Tim loves everything that Colorado has to offer and enjoys exploring the mountains, hiking, and skiing. He also enjoys seeing live music and keeping up with the Avs, Nuggets, Rockies, and other sports. Tim loves his work and caring for the pets that come through the door!
Dr. Catie Theiler, DVM
Veterinarian
I have been in the veterinary industry since I was 16. I started as a kennel technician in my hometown vet clinic in Arlington, Nebraska. I moved up to veterinary assistant while I was in college. I graduated with a Bachelor’s in Science from Doane University in Crete, Nebraska, and DVM from Iowa State University in Ames, Iowa. Because I am a new graduate I want to bring new research and medicine to Foothills. In addition, I have a special interest in surgery and dermatology. I want to give each of my patients the best care possible while providing the best experience for the pet. In my free time, I like to snuggle with my cat Charlie, crochet, cook, and be outdoors.
Dr. Cassi Stadler, DVM
Veterinarian
Dr. Cassi Stadler grew up surrounded by many pets, which fostered her desire to make a difference in the lives of animals. Born and raised in south Florida, she attended the University of Florida, receiving her Bachelor’s degree and DVM (go gators!). During that time, she experienced many aspects of veterinary medicine, including general practice, low-cost clinics, and emergency/critical care. As a new graduate, Dr. Stadler is excited not only for a new adventure in Colorado but also for the opportunity to provide innovative and compassionate medicine to her patients. She has interests in dentistry, feline medicine, and client education. Outside of veterinary medicine, she enjoys baking treats (both sweet and savory), attending live music events, traveling to new places, and cuddling with her two dogs and cat.

Eva, RVT
I’m a Colorado local, born and raised in Denver but for the last 20 years, I’ve lived in Sunny San Diego which I consider my second home.
I have a degree in Animal Health Technology from San Diego Mesa College and have worked in small animal practices, specialty clinics, and have interned at the famous San Diego Zoo, where I worked with amazing people and got to see so many awesome animals, including the adorable pandas!
After a break from work to raise my daughter, I’m so happy to be back in Colorado working as a CVT. I have seen my love of animals transfer to my daughter and she is thrilled that I am a “puppy nurse” and get to wear pajamas to work.
Ariana, RVT
I was raised in California and spent a majority of my youth in 4-H caring for, riding, and showing horses where my love for animals grew.

Jason, RVT
Veterinary Assistant
I’ve always been around animals, from chickens, rabbits and goats my mother raised, to working with pets and primates as a veterinary technician. After a lifetime in Georgia, I am excited to be in the mountains with my partner, our cat and almost enough houseplants to balance not having a garden. I am happy to call Colorado home and to be a part of the Foothills family.

I’m always looking for the next adventure!
