Dr. Kim Blake


Born and raised in the Toronto area, Kim has built her career on compassion, clinical excellence, and a strong connection to the community. She earned her Bachelor of Science degree from the

University of Guelph in 1992 and graduated from the Ontario Veterinary College in 1996. The following year, she moved to Belleville and joined Stirling Veterinary Services, where she has been proudly caring for pets and their families ever since.


Kim is recognized for her caring, considerate nature and her dedication to supporting the well-being of animals and their owners. She has a keen interest in both clinical medicine and education. Her experience includes teaching veterinary technician courses at St. Lawrence College in Kingston, as well as delivering engaging presentations to school and church groups about the veterinary profession.  Passionate about public interaction, Kim has also shared her knowledge as a guest on several local radio talk shows, offering advice and insight on a wide range of pet care topics.

Professionally, Kim is a member of the College of Veterinarians of Ontario, the Quinte District Veterinary Association, and the Ontario Veterinary Medical Association, where she has also served on the Board of Directors. These roles reflect her ongoing commitment to advancing veterinary medicine and contributing to the broader professional community.


Outside of work, she values quality time with her family—including her husband, two children, and their two cats.  In addition to family life, she finds fulfillment in running, with one of her proudest personal achievements being her qualification for the Boston Marathon in 2010.


Whether in the clinic or the community, Kim is dedicated to making a positive difference in the lives of both pets and the people who care for them.
