Practice Owner

Evie Fredenburg

Evie began her Greenfield career in 2001 as a receptionist then stepped into the role of office manager. She eventually became Greenfield Animal Hospital’s practice manager.
Evie is responsible for creating a cohesive team of like-minded individuals with similar morals and goals for the practice. After 20 years of managing the practice, she became business partners with Dr. Shencopp and together they acquired Greenfield Animal Hospital. During the acquisition of Greenfield, Evie was diagnosed with breast cancer. Through treatment, she fought to stay strong for her husband, family, friends, and Greenfield! We are proud of her and happy to announce she’s been in remission since 2020.

Adding to the challenges, COVID caused a national shutdown of businesses during the acquisition. Despite these setbacks, Dr. Shencopp and Evie were able to finally fulfill a dream and make Greenfield Animal Hospital their own!

Evie is proud to say that Greenfield Animal Hospital is one of the last few independently (and women) owned veterinary hospitals in the area! This allows the doctors and staff to provide the level of medicine they believe to be of utmost importance.

She loves going to work every day and is so proud of each employee and their dedication to their patients. When she’s not at Greenfield, she’s cuddling with her cats, Harrison Ford and John Patrick, practicing bass, seeing a live show, trying a new restaurant, traveling, hiking, biking, and just enjoying life.
