Veterinarian & Co-Founder
Dr. Charlie Meynier brings more than 20 years of veterinary experience to Tarrytown Veterinary Clinic, along with a passion for building lasting relationships with pets and their families. A native Texan, devoted husband, and proud father of three, Dr. Meynier earned his Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from Louisiana State University in 1999 after completing a Bachelor of Science in Microbiology and Animal Systems.
He began his career in equine sports medicine and surgery, working as a racetrack veterinarian at Churchill Downs and Louisiana Downs, before moving into small animal practice in Austin at Brykerwood Veterinary Clinic. In 2007, he co-founded Vail Valley Animal Hospital in Colorado, where he served as owner, medical director, and chief of staff for more than a decade. He also founded and operated the Vail Valley Animal ER. Through these leadership roles, Dr. Meynier gained extensive experience in advanced medicine, surgery, and hospital management, though his greatest fulfillment continues to come from connecting with clients and providing compassionate, high-quality care.
In 2025, Dr. Meynier returned to Austin to co-found Tarrytown Veterinary Clinic with his longtime friend and colleague, Dr. Allison Jenkins. He is excited to share his expertise and dedication with the Austin community, which he has always considered home.
Outside the clinic, Dr. Meynier enjoys traveling, spending time outdoors, and being with his family, friends, and pets.
