Meet our caring and compassionate veterinary team

Dr. Tyler Baum is a two-time graduate from University of California, Davis with a Bachelor of Science in Animal science with a minor in psychology as well as a Doctorate degree in Veterinary Medicine with special interests in avian and exotic medicine.
While Dr. Tyler loves seeing all the cats and dogs, his greatest passion is treating pets that are a bit smaller. Some of his favorites include: Guinea pigs, rabbits, hamsters, exotic birds, reptiles, and yes even the occasional chicken.
Working with animals has always been one of Dr. Tyler’s greatest passions, he carries this love for animals wherever he goes, volunteering abroad in at need communities as well as with wild animal conservation groups in a variety of foreign countries including Nicaragua and South Africa.
When not taking care of Sacramento’s animals, Dr. Tyler can be found either at home with his wife Andrea, and their three kitten fur babies, Toast, Butters and Dr. Professor Stripey Pants, Wine tasting throughout the Northern California wine regions, or out in nature, hiking and working on his photography, some of which can be seen throughout our Hospital.
