Hello! I'm Veronica and I've been a Veterinary Surgeon at Vets for Pets Castleford since 2018. I love working with animals and people (especially cats!). When I'm not at work, I spend time at home with my soulmate Martin and our two amazing cats, Hobo and Leelu. I'm a proud neurodivergent with loads of hobbies. I'm especially passionate about gardening, art & illustration.. and cats - did I mention I love cats?
Hi I'm Mariam! Before joining Vets for Pets in 2023, I was studying in London for my Bachelors in Bio-Veterinary Sciences at the Royal Veterinary College. I later developed an interest in Animal Welfare & Conservation in Writtle University College, where I received my Postgraduate Certificate in 2017. While I learned a lot during this time, I always wanted to be a vet & travel around Europe, so I decided to move abroad to Trakia University in Bulgaria where I completed my Masters in Veterinary Medicine in 2023. After moving to beautiful Yorkshire, I've really enjoyed wandering around the local area, painting in my garden, & eating a lot of food!

Hi. I have worked at Castleford Vets for Pets since we opened in February 2014 starting as a receptionist. In 2023, I took up the role of Practice Manager. I still get to cuddle pups and kittens and chat to clients which I love doing. When I am not at work, I am a busy mum to two boys, one now working himself and the other competes for GBR in trampolining so you can usually find me watching him train at the gym or at competitions. I have 2 cats, Blakey and Izzy and a dogs called Bou.

Hello, I'm Jenny and I’ve spent the last five years being a friendly face on reception welcoming clients, cuddling pets, and trying not to take every animal home with me. Outside of work, I’m a photographer, usually found chasing the perfect shot or chasing my three cats, Opie, Loki and Beans who have no interest in cooperating. When I’m not doing that, I love spending time with my husband and my daughter, Ivy. I’m in my 30s but still running on 20s energy, fully thriving on a 90s upbringing, and occasionally making questionable decisions like staying up far too late.
I started with Vets for Pets Castleford in May 2023, Animals have always been a great passion of mine from a very young age. At home I have 2 dachshunds and 2 cats that love to disrupt my down time. On days off we love to have days out together seeing what mischief they can get up to. They are definitely small dogs with big personalities.
Vets for Pets Castleford is committed to bringing you affordable, high quality care via a modern, well equipped practice, including a lab, pharmacy, digital x-ray and ultrasound. Plus, on site car parking too!
