Meet Dr. Carolina do Carmo
DVM & Medical Director
Dr. Carolina do Carmo is an Associate Veterinarian and Medical Director at Parker Animal Care. She was born and raised in Brazil, where she completed her veterinary degree in 2019, from Universidade Federal de Lavras. Then, she received her veterinary medicine license in the United States in January, 2022. She first started practicing in Iowa and moved to Austin in 2024.
Dr. Carmo had many dogs and cats growing up. Her mom would always help the stray animals in her neighborhood and that was what made Dr. Carmo decide to attend vet school. Dr. Carmo loves all large and small animals. However, in school, she fell in love with small animal medicine and decided to follow that path. During her time at the university in Brazil, she got a scholarship to study in the US in 2015. She attended college for a year and a half and that is when she met her husband. She returned to Brazil in 2017 to finish her degree and then came back to the US in November of 2019.
She currently lives in Austin with her husband and their cats, Lua and Fabio. Dr. Carmo loves traveling, reading, exercising, cooking, hanging out with friends, and watching food-related shows on tv with her husband and cats.
