My name is Jess, I have worked in the Industry for 5 years, I qualified as a veterinary nurse in September 2023 from Myerscough college and have been working as an RVN since. I enjoy all aspects of my job, especially getting to say hi to all your furry friends. When I’m not at work you can usually find me taking my dog Mable out on long walks, going to the cinema or hanging out with friends!

Head RVN

Read Elise bio

Hi I'm Elise, I have always had a passion for animals since I was a child. When I left school I trained to be a dog groomer and did this for many years before deciding I wanted to retrain as a veterinary nurse. I have been in veterinary since 2018 starting out as a receptionist and working my way up to being a qualified RVN. I have experience in both general practice and emergency hospital settings.

I love all aspects of my job especially anaesthesia and schedule 3 surgery. I am a strong believer in fear free practice and love working with nervous patients and helping them and their owners feel more at ease. I plan to become fear free accredited and to complete certificates in both anaesthesia and feline nursing.
