Vets4Pets Borehamwood

I qualified as a Veterinary Surgeon in 2016 from the University of Veterinary and Pharmaceutical Sciences in Brno, Czech Republic and registered in the UK in November 2017. During my childhood years, my first love was animals. My primary hobby and passion was keeping and learning about animals, from cats and dogs through to exotics such as snakes, crocodiles and parrots. I have experience in caring for and handling animals in a safe, effective and humane manner, especially animals that need special care and/or those that are untrained. I have a keen interest in furthering my knowledge and experience to better understand the physiology and natural habits of animals. I am knowledgeable in the characteristics and requirements of exotic animals as well as a familiarity with symptoms of disease that they are prone to. I'm also extremely interested in birds, exotic mammals and cats and dogs.

I have always had a passion for animals and animal welfare. Although I do not have any pets now I did have 2 guinea pigs growing up called Toffee and Ruby and a Syrian hamster called Harvey. My love for animals grew when I volunteered at a children's farm looking after rabbits, guinea pigs, ponies and other farm animals. I have always wanted a career working with animals and this opportunity allows me to do just that. The team at Vets4Pets Borehamwood are friendly and helpful and I feel like part of the team already. I have thoroughly enjoyed working here and can see myself staying with the company for years to come.

I have been working with animals since 2014 but I started to work in veterinary during 2016 since then I have worked as both a veterinary care assistant and as a client care assistant. I enjoy working with the animals and seeing their progress as they get better. My aim is to train to be a veterinary nurse in the near future. I currently have a little rescue cat called Jess who was left at a previous vets I worked at, when she was just 3 months old.
