A Culture of Passion

Daiga Rozensteine, DVM

Medical Director / Veterinarian

Dr. Daiga Rozensteine has been with Madison Street Animal Hospital since 2019. Born in Latvia, she knew by age five that she wanted to devote her life to animals and by ten was determined to become a veterinarian. While working at an animal shelter called Dzivnieku Draugs in Latvia, she helped establish a charity hospital for stray animals and pets of low-income families.

She’s a graduate of the Latvia University of Agriculture, Faculty of Veterinary Medicine, and obtained her Washington State Veterinary License in 2015. She has extensive experience in emergency care and general practice. She loves and feels deeply connected to each of her patients and strives to provide them with the highest quality care. When away from her patients, she can be found hiking, traveling, cooking vegan food, and volunteering at Pasado’s Safe Haven. Dr. Rozensteine also shares her home with Bholu, a rescued dog from India.

Ken Zebrowski, DVM

Associate Veterinarian

Originally from Detroit, MI, Dr. Zebrowksi grew up with lots of pets in the family. He had an affinity for both animals and medicine, so a career as a veterinarian was the perfect fit. Prior to attending vet school, he worked as a vet assistant and at the Michigan Humane Society. He earned his DVM with honors from Michigan State University in 1987.

Dr. Zebrowski is a member of the American Veterinary Medical Association and the Washington State Veterinary Medical Association. He says his favorite part of being a veterinarian is client education and partnering with pet owners to find solutions that work for both them and their pets. Dr. Zebrowski has lived in Seattle since 1993, and when he’s not working he enjoys horticulture, cooking new and different cuisines, and staying active outdoors.

Ling Yu, DVM

Associate Veterinarian

I moved to Seattle from New York City in 2021 with my partner, Andrew, and our dog, Arty, and I haven’t looked back. Growing up, my passion for animals drove me more than anything, even in a household that didn’t see the value in pets. Becoming a veterinarian felt like the perfect way to pursue that lifelong drive and surround myself with the animals I love.

After earning my veterinary degree from Ross University and completing my clinical year at Purdue, I’ve been working in small animal practice since 2016. I have a particular passion for dermatology, finding it incredibly rewarding to witness the positive impact we can make in our patients’ lives. When I’m not at work, I take full advantage of Seattle’s access to snowboarding, dog parks, hiking trails, and road cycling—and recently, I’ve even taken up pickleball. During the darker months, you’ll find us cozying up with video games and a few rounds of mahjong.

Sierra

Hospital Director

Sierra’s career goal since she was a very young girl has been to work with animals. After graduating from the University of Idaho, she worked at a marine mammal center in Northern California. She recently moved to the greater Seattle area. She is excited to be a part of this team to help keep your pets active, healthy, and happy. She will treat your furry friends like they are her own, not just because she is an animal lover, but because it is how she wants her furry family members to be treated. She is looking forward to meeting you and your pets!

Jackie

Veterinary Assistant

Jackie attended Grand Valley State University and earned a B.S. in Biology. Throughout her career she has done fieldwork with Mississippi Sandhill Crane National Wildlife Refuge, working with their Greater Sage Grouse and Wild Turkeys in various states. Jackie moved to Seattle in 2018 and started working at Madison Street as a Veterinary Assistant. On her days off she can be found hiking up a mountain.

Sara Shaw, DVM

Associate Veterinarian

Dr. Sara Shaw grew up in the Bay Area of California in a home where she was always surrounded by animals. Even though as a child she wanted to be a veterinarian, life took her down other routes and she graduated with a bachelors degree in fine art from Portland State University. After graduation and some soul searching, she decided to return to her childhood dream and become a veterinarian. She graduated with honors from Oregon State College of Veterinary Medicine in 2007. After completing an internship in Michigan, she moved to Spokane and has been happily working in the field ever since.

She and her husband moved to Seattle just this summer and she has been enjoying exploring her new city. Dr. Shaw has a particular interest in senior pets and helping them (and their people) live their fullest lives possible. She believes strongly in treating every animal the way she would like her own furry loved ones to be treated. When she is not snuggling, petting, or trying to sweet talk her patients, she spends her time hiking and bike riding with her husband, cooking, traveling, and snuggling her own perfect kitty.

Al

Veterinary Assistant

Al has a household where furry companionship is wholeheartedly cherished. Their journey into veterinary medicine began with a remarkable rabbit named Bagel. From the moment Bagel hopped into their life, They knew they had found their calling. Nurturing an exotic pet like Bagel has been a rollercoaster ride of learning and devotion. It has fueled their ambition to revolutionize veterinary care for urban bunny parents, striving for transparency, trustworthiness, and accessibility in every aspect of pet health.

If Al were to tell every pet owner one thing that they recommend regarding veterinary care, they would say to trust your gut! You as an owner are their entire world, and they will let you know what they need. They trust YOU. YOU are their voice! You can find Al studying for Vet Tech school or hanging out with their “Fluffle” (Fun Fact: that is the name for a group of rabbits) in their free time!
