Meet the team
I started as a school leaver helping out in a veterinary practice close to home in Northumberland in 1993. I went on to complete my nursing training and qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 1998. 5 years later I joined the Vets4Pets becoming the groups first Veterinary Nurse Partner. After over 15 years as a Practice Partner my role has moved from full time nursing to now mainly practice management although I like to keep my hand in with nursing. My working week is split between both Sunderland South Vets4Pets and Sunderland Vets4Pets in Fulwell.
I qualified as a veterinary surgeon from the university of Edinburgh in 2018 but I am a local girl from Sunderland. i had spent several weeks doing work experience with Sunderland Vets4pets where i became very fond of the practice and the team and was thrilled to be offered a job as a new graduate vet. I love performing surgery but also have an interest in medicine so general practice is a great balance for me. i like to spend most of my spare time is spent walking with my dog, Fergus.

I have had a love for animals since being little and when an opportunity came about to join the team at Vets4Pets as a VCA I jumped at the chance. Every day is different in this role. My placement is split between attending practice and college. I look forward to caring for the patients in our practice and will be working hard to pursue my goal to become a Registered Veterinary Nurse in the future.
I have worked with our Vets4Pets family since leaving school at 16 years old. I love getting to meet clients' furry friends everyday in consultations and looking after them in theatre while monitoring their anaesthetics.
I qualified as a RVN in summer 2023
I joined the Vets4Pets family in September 2021 so that I could completing my Veterinary Care Assistant course. I was lucky enough to stay with the practice to complete my Veterinary Nursing training. I qualified as Registered Veterinary Nurse in September 2024. I have a key interest in in-patient care and love getting to work with animals every day!
I have a tortoise named Billy and a Chorkie named Chewie who I especially love taking on walks!
I joined the Vets4pets family in September 2022 whilst on my Veterinary Care Assistant course which I have completed and I will be starting as a first year veterinary nursing student at Sunderland South Vets4Pets in September 2023. I enjoy all aspects of working in a veterinary practice, I have a key interest in emergency and critical care.
I have a cocker spaniel called Willow and a beagle called Hope who I love to take for long walks along the beach.
I began my Vets4Pets journey in May 2013 where i worked as a member of the reception team before recently joining Sunderland South Vets4Pets as Client Services Manager in early 2023. I enjoy interacting with clients and all the fantastic pets we get to see.
After work I love spending time with friends and family.
I joined the team in November 2018 as a client care advisor, previously I worked at an OOH Emergency vets, having a love of animal’s means I love working at Vets4Pets and love interacting with our clients and their pets. In my spare time I go to the gym and enjoy trying new things also going on walks with my family. I have had numerous pets over the years and currently have a cat named George & a fish named Barry. My all-time favourite animal is a crocodile I find them fascinating!.
I am a client care advisor and started working here at Sunderland South Vets4Pets in October 2018. The things I love most about my job is meeting new people and their beloved pets on a daily basis. I have 2 pugs called Frank and Fearne who love going on walks and cant resist cuddles.
After working in childcare for the last 10 years I wanted to explore a new career and joined Vets4Pets at the start of June 2023, first starting at the Fulwell practice and then moving across to the Grindon practice. I can honestly say it's the best decision I made, I enjoy interacting with clients and getting to meet their pets. Every day is different. Cuddles is a big perk of the job.
Outside of work I have my own little pug called Belle. In my spare time I love to spend it with family and friends, going on walks and reading a good book.
I started working in Sunderland South Vets4Pets in June 2024 as part of the client services team. Animals have always been a massive part of my life and I couldn't think of a better job than being surrounded by them every day. Everyday is different and I enjoy making clients and their pets experiences within our practice a positive and rewarding one. I am a Mam of 4 and have 2 dogs and 2 horses. In my spare time you will find me at the farm doing all things horse related including competitions with my daughter on her horse, or at the football with my son.
After 15 years in sports coaching (swimming) I made the decision to step away from the poolside and move into a new and very different role. I enjoy using computer systems and have been able to combine this into my new role. I work remotely from the practice handling a large amount of the Digital Practice (WhatsApp) interactions we have with clients.
In my spare time I enjoy being with my family out and about. I can often be found on the side of a football pitch cheering on my boys or on the rugby pitch playing a game myself.
I previously worked in a veterinary practice in Northumberland on reception and during this time I assisted with the completion of insurance claim forms. When the role came up at Vets4Pets it was a great opportunity for me. I work from home remotely processing the insurance claims which allows me to work around my young family.
In my spare time I enjoy being out and about with the family
