Hi, I’m Karen and I’m a part time vet. I graduated from Cambridge in 2010 at an older age than most Vets as I had previously worked in the area of household insurance for 15 years. A life changing opportunity allowed my to fulfil my dream and retrained as a Vet. I love combining my customer service skills from my pre-Vet life with my desired to help all the wonderful pets and their lovely owners. I enjoy all areas of veterinary work from meeting pets and their owners to all the fascinating work behind the scenes with the excellent V4P Biggleswade team. When not at work, I enjoy family time with my husband and son as well as my two fur babies, Harry the Irish Setter and noisy Jenny Any Dots the Bengal cat. I love being outdoors walking miles with my family & hound as well as looking after my garden. I’m also the Akela with a local Cub Pack.

I graduated as a vet from the Royal Veterinary College in 2008. I completed two junior training scholarships in small animal medicine and surgery before settling into general practice. Before joining in 2019, I worked in various small animal veterinary practices and spent some time volunteering as a vet abroad. My interests include radiography and medicine. Outside of work, I enjoy power-lifting and baking cakes. I also spend my time walking and cuddling my Italian Greyhound pup, Dobby.

Since graduating from Bristol in 2010 I have enjoyed becoming an all round G.P. for pets of all shapes and sizes.  I have a keen interest in small exotic veterinary care, especially that of rabbits!

At home I have three rescued pets - a cat (the shy one), a rabbit (the boss) and a hamster (the new baby).

I am the Head Nurse and Pet Health Counsellor here at Biggleswade. I have always had a keen interest in working with animals since a young age; I have worked within veterinary practices since 2004 even before I left school. I completed a BSc Honours degree in Veterinary Nursing in 2011 and have since worked at Vets4Pets. In February 2014, I helped start up a new Vets4pets practice in Luton Gipsy Lane and have worked there since, previously working in their standalone practice for many years before this. I enjoy running nurses clinics, interacting with the clients and getting to know their pets. Outside of work I love spending time with my German Shepherd, Sky, and lots of different outdoor fitness activities.

Sarah is currently on maternity leave after having a little girl in October.

Receptionist

Hello, my name is Kathryn!  

I joined Vets4Pets Biggleswade as a receptionist in October 2020, in a year that was very uncertain, I found a role/place and work colleagues that make everyday better! 

I have always had such a huge love for animals, having hamsters, rabbits, fish and many many dogs all throughout my life; although I do have a slight fear of cats! 

So getting to help clients and their furbabies, even in the smallest of ways, is a huge satisfaction and what makes me love my role here! 

I love to take my boy Harvey for long walks across the fields and woods, throwing his beloved ball. 

There is really no love like the love of a fur baby! 

Kathryn is currently on Maternity Leave after having a beautiful baby girl in December.
