Practice Owner & Veterinary Surgeon

Dr.med.vet. MRCVS

Read Sylvia Annies bio

I graduated 25 years ago in Hannover, Germany and worked in several small animal practices before moving to Cardiff with my husband in 1994. We currently live in Barry with our son and two cats; Ivy and Ceri. I enjoy all aspects of small animal practice but have a particular interest in feline medicine, which I'm looking to further intensify in the future. My patients are mostly dogs, cats and rabbits; I'm also experienced with rats, hamsters, fish, cage birds and exotics.

I graduated from The Royal Veterinary College in 2013 with a degree in Veterinary Nursing and since then have been working in small animal practice in South Wales.

I love everything about my job from providing advice and preventive healthcare, to assisting the vet in surgery. I have a keen interest in nutrition and nurse clinics. Occasionally I also work in the Veterinary Emergency Treatment Service to improve my emergency and critical care skills.

In my spare time I enjoy keeping fit and often foster orphaned animals. I currently have two indoor cats and a large dog; Myrtle Elizabeth, Eugene Charles and Murray Ross who are forever fosters.

Cath Daniels

Receptionist

Read Cath Daniels bio

Hello I'm Cath. Working at Vets4Pets Barry has really fulfilled my dreams of working with animals. I love my family and our adorable, allergic dog Paisley. Living with an animal with allergies has fuelled my passion for all things organic and created a hobby of creating my own range of chemical free products and an interest in homeopathy. I have a soft spot for Staffies and will often be spotted sitting in the kennels fawning over these patients.

Jennie Flannigan

Receptionist

Read Jennie Flannigan bio

Armed with a menagerie of animals including my 2 cocker spaniels - Mouse and Miley Cyrus, 4 rescue cats - Brian, Kevin, Rupert and Dora (although there is always room for more!)

I have a work history of customer care which I now extend to furry clients as I can often be found sitting on the floor bribing the patients with treats! In my spare time I enjoy walking my dogs sporting my famous anorak.

I like all animals but have a special place in my heart for all dogs oodly and doodly.

Miss Sophie Cox

Receptionist

Read Miss Sophie Cox bio

Hello, I'm Sophie, one of the receptionists here at Barry Vets4Pets. I might seem familiar because I started off at pets at home and was working there for about a year before moving to the vets. I absolutely love working here and meeting all the lovely clients and their incredibly sweet pets.

My love for animals have made me decide to become a vegetarian and I have been for over a year. I have an interest in Sharks and to swim with them is an ambition of mine.

I currently own 5 dogs - Amber, Harley, Scout, Indie, Arya so when I'm not in work I get plenty of exercise and a lot of cuddling. I also like spending any other free time with my friends socialising.

Rhianne Bradley

Receptionist

'Hello, I'm Rhianne. After many years of working with jewellery, I decided to pursue my long held desire to work with all things furry.

I have my own personal petting zoo at home with my beloved dog, four cats and my geriatric tortoise Victor.

I am Vets4Pets newest recruit, I love admin and cuddling all the pets visiting us.

In my spare time I make pompom wreaths, dabble in interior design but mostly you can find me curled up with the cats reading or walking the dog and tortoise'
