Read Idara Umo bio

I graduated from University of Bologna in 2002 and moved to the UK to do an MSc in wild animal health at the RVC. While studying, I worked in small animal practice and developed an interest in exotic pets and small furries. I have since worked in various small animal practices across England and enjoyed a lot of what the UK has to offer. I moved back to London and surrounding areas in 2005 and settled here. I love to spend my free time with my partner and our two little girls, swimming, reading and walks.

Read Juliana Brandao bio

Juliana's career looking after animals has been a long journey. It all started with her bachelor’s degree in Biology working as a zookeeper. A few years after that, she conquered her so desired Master’s degree in Wild Animal Biology. However, her passion for the well-being of animals brought her to the veterinary nursing course which she qualified and registered in 2021.

When she's not with her furry patients, she loves to spend time with her friends and family, including her crazy dog Luna!

Her aim as a vet nurse is to always provide the best care and cuddles her beloved patients deserve.
