Who is Dr. Petra Young?
Dr. Petra Young is a Slovakian-American veterinarian and a reality television star who leads an extraordinary life. She has a passion for animals and medicine that took her from her native Slovakia to the United States, where she met and married her husband, Dr. Jeff Young. Together, they run Planned Pethood Plus, one of the most diverse and busy animal hospitals in Colorado. They treat all kinds of animals, from pets to farm animals, and share their stories on the Animal Planet show, Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet.
Early Life:
Petra Young was born Petra Mickova in Slovakia in November 1984. The birthdate makes her 39 years old. She grew up in Slovakia and began her schooling there however most of the information from her early days is missing. Personal information such as her hobbies, interests, or what she was like growing up are the things best known to her. Her biography information also lacks her family background. She came to the United States in her 20s and has since immigrated.
Career:
Petra Young is an accredited doctor in veterinary medicine. She has a DVM degree and is trained to diagnose and treat a wide range of medical conditions in animals, including pets, livestock, and wildlife. She took Veterinary training from Dr. Jeff Young in 2010 and later was employed at “Planned Pethood Plus.” Over the years, Dr. Petra has traveled across the United States, Mexico, Slovakia, and parts of Europe for training new veterinarians including teaching them efficient surgical techniques for spaying/neutering.
Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet:
In addition to working as a veterinarian, Dr. Petra performs as a reality television actor. She is a regular cast member of the Aimal Planet channel show “Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet” which follows Dr. Young and his team as they provide medical care to animals in the Denver, Colorado area. The 10th season of the show concluded on September 4, 2022, and as expected Dr. Petra was a cast member seen as wife and employee of Planned Pethood Plus. Another famous veterinarian & an employee at the pet service, Dr. Amy Hutcheson joined in for the season.
Personal Life:
Married to Jeff Young.
Performing surgery and rescuing animals is part of her job and Dr. Petra makes it looks easier. The other facet of her life is nothing short of praiseworthy and serves as a jewel to her accomplished career. She is blissfully married to Dr. Jeff Young who is also a veterinarian.
The pair met in 2010 when she was taking lessons under Dr. Jeff and later began working alongside him. During that time, the pair went on to grow more than just a professional relationship. Dr. Jeff was previously married and had three children with his ex-wife. As often said, “Love has no age limit,” the pair despite sharing an age difference of 27 years took their chances. In 2014, Dr. Jeff and Dr. Petra Young tied the knot. The couple lives above the clinic to deal with their notoriously busy schedule.
In the years of togetherness as a married couple, Dr. Petra has been a constant presence in her husband’s life. She is often present to take care of him and this was evident during the time Dr. Jeff suffered from cancer. Dr. Jeff was diagnosed with B-cell Lymphoma, and she was the one who prepared him for chemo by cutting his long shiny hair. This part was also shown in the Animal Planet TV show “Dr. Jeff: Rocky Mountain Vet.”
In as many years as a couple, Dr.Petra and Dr. Jeff Young have no children. Dr. Petra is close to Melody Obuobisa, Dr. Jeff’s daughter who works as a practice manager in the clinic, Planned Pethood Plus.
Working alongside Dr. Jeff:

In every procedure whether routine or urgent, there is a thin line between the life and death of patients. Petra Young understands her role as a veterinarian and knows where or when to draw a line between her professional and personal commitment to her marriage and family.
Dr. Petra and her husband mostly find themselves busy in the veterinary profession and during their free time, Dr. Jeff likes to spend time coaching high school cross-country runners and focus on karate at the dojo while Dr. Petra is an avid reader and likes to keep up her competitive side by learning new things.

Dr. Perta is beautiful to look at but even better she is an example of skill professionalism and dedication. She is a worthy partner for Dr Jeff, When I see them working together and loving each other I can only think….soul mates.
I think that there’s a ypo in the above text. Dr Petra is from Slovakia and grew there. The word up should come before the word there.
I absolutely love their show. Most importantly my 112lb Pitbull ‘Woogie’ never misses an episode. I only wish we had them for Windows Drs when we saved him after the horrible breeder thought cutting his and 9 of his brothers Lewis’s off. We got to him immediately and 3 surgeries later he is a happy, BIG baby. God bless you and your entire staff Dr.Jeff, and Dr Petra. I wish we had vets like that here in Carson City Nevada. I would make the drive if Sophie was ever in need of a surgeon.
I really like her, both as a TV personality and as a vet. I love to watch her perform surgeries and wish TV allowed for more up-close detail of the procedures. It’s obvious that she is super smart. I love the way she explains her process and, again, wish time allowed for more detail and explanation.
Just wanted to send an overall huge congratulation to her for her achievements in veterinary medicine in this country. jah
We watch your show all the time and enjoy it very much and learn alot your devotion for animals is very inspiring and it’s kind of you to make your services affordable to all you are our hero…

Feel ppp is a great is a great organization! Love the clinics in Mexico and elsewhere. Money truly isn’t everything. Thank you both for trying to show others that fact.
I just watched a show this morning – a visit to Romania. All the people at Dr Jeff’s clinic have a dedication to helping animals and the people who love them – they are an inspiration. I pray for their continued success. In troubled times shining examples of the human spirit in action are especially important.
Love you Dr. Petra you are so genuine.
