Crawley Vets4Pets

I graduated from Bologna's University (Italy) in 2012 and I then went on doing a Master Degree in Animal Reproduction which I finished in 2014. Me and my husband moved to the UK in 2015 and I have been working in small animal practices ever since.

I have obtained my Oncology GP-Cert in 2016 and I moved to Crawley in July 2020 to start as the Head Vet for the practice. I started a further qualification in Diagnostic Imaging in 2021 which I should achieve in 2023

In March 2022 I became Joint Venture Partner and I now run the practice together with James Fowler MRCVS and Emma Clarke RVN.

I have a 3 year old son and a 10 months old daughter. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family and my 2 Maine Coons.

I graduated from the Agrarian University of Havana in Cuba. Since then I have been working in small animal practice. I have had the opportunity to work in a wide range of different small animal practices in Cuba, Spain, and more recently in the UK which has allowed me to gain a valuable experience as veterinary surgeon

I enjoy all aspects of being a small animal veterinary surgeon, but I have a particular interest in emergency medicine and critical care, surgery, and internal medicine.  I have just finished a postgraduate certificate in emergency medicine and critical care, achieving the qualification of Pgcert in Small Animal Practice

In my free time I like travelling, dancing and spending time with family and friends.

Miss Nicole Aernout

Veterinary Surgeon MRCVS

I qualified from the University of Utrecht in The Netherlands in 1998 with a Master degree in Veterinary Medicine. I have worked in a variety of veterinary practices and hospitals. I have lived and worked in the UK since 2000. I joined the Vets4Pets group in 2017 and the Crawley team in 2020.

I enjoy all aspects of Veterinary Practice but I have a particular interest in endocrinology, immunology, internal medicine, cardiology and imaging. I completed the RCVS NHS Edward Jenner Leadership program in 2020 and have been accredited the NHS Academy Award in Leadership Foundations for Veterinary Professionals. I enjoy sharing experiences with colleagues and clients and am also a RCVS VETGDP adviser (coach for recent Veterinary Graduates).

Away from work I enjoy walking and cycling in the countryside, spending time with family and friends, philosophy, reading, music, art, visiting London and other cities.

I graduated from the University of Bristol in 2011 after completing a BSc (Hons) in veterinary nursing and practice administration. I have always been passionate about animals and being a veterinary nurse is my dream job. Being a head nurse comes with challenges of its own but these challenges I embrace. I am also a clinical coach meaning I train the student veterinary nurses. As of this year I have taken on the role of JVP (joint venture partner) which will allow for greater flexibility and management. I love all aspects of my job in particular medical nursing, geriatric nursing and rabbit nursing. I have completed my rabbit nursing Diploma and have undertaken the emergency and critical care nursing diploma. At home I have 2 naughty cats Zig and Zag, and 2 spoilt indoor mini lops Dolly and Belle. I frequently take home puppies and kittens to hand rear.

I grew up in Southern Ireland and was extremely fortunate to share my wonderful childhood with animals of all different shapes and sizes! I trained in Edinburgh, Ireland and England qualifying in 2001. After which, I went travelling around the world and was lucky enough to work in Morocco. Since then I worked a various places included the RSPCA in Putney.

 I was lucky enough to be employed by Vets4Pets 2.5 years ago on a part time basis. I love all aspects of my job and have a special interest in animal welfare. I very much enjoy caring for our inpatients and do enjoy the buzz of a busy prep room!

When I am not at work I am exercising by my two dogs, Otter a cheeky border terrier who came from my work at the RSPCA and Moose, a wonderfully loyal Labrador. We also have a lovely pony called Foresta and Weasel, our little domestic short haired cat who also came from the RSPCA in Putney. She is adored by the children and is lucky enough to be the only animal allowed upstairs!I enjoy exercising when I am not being mum; I especially love going for 5-10km runs. The dogs get super excited when the trainers go on!

Since qualifying in 2014, I have worked in multiple practices across South London, Surrey and West Sussex. I have a keen interest in surgical nursing, animal nutrition and client and student nurse training. I hold a Certificate in Canine and Feline Veterinary Health Nutrition. I am also a Clinical Coach and responsible for teaching and coaching student nurses through the practical side of their training.

At home I have three  spaniels; Bug, Ron & Wes, seven chickens and two ferrets; Dexter  Derek. Outside of work I enjoy spending time with my family, baking and walking my dogs through the countryside.

I joined Vets4Pets in October 2016. I qualified as a veterinary nurse in 2005. I have had a range of pets over the years; chipmunks, birds, fishes, rabbits and guinea pigs. I also had a horse for many years too. I now have 2 rescue dogs; Margot, a tiny Chihuahua cross and Roo, a poodle cross.

 I enjoy taking my dogs out, going to music festivals and gigs and catching up with my friends. Most of my spare time is taken up being mum to my daughter.

I joined Vets4Pets in October 2016, as a Veterinary Care Assistant, having previously worked as an Animal Nursing Assistant in a different veterinary practice for 4 years. I have recently completed my training to become a Registered Veterinary Nurse. I have always worked with animals - prior to the veterinary industry I worked in a boarding and police dog kennels. I have previously volunteered for the RSPCA also.

At home I have a German Shephard called Skye who regularly features on the Vets4Pets facebook page!

In my spare time I enjoy taking long walks and baking.

I first worked at Pets at Home for over a year before starting my job as a Veterinary Care Assistant at Vets 4 Pets. I have always had a strong interest in working with animals. It has always been my dream career to be a qualified Veterinary Nurse.

My joys in life are my two Golden Retrievers, Willow and Bracken, and my many small furries.

I have been working at Vets 4 pets, for 4 years now and am currently in my final year of my Veterinary nurse training and due to sit my final practical's in January 2022.

I have 3 cats at home, Primrose, Pip and Misty. They enjoy the company of my dog Teddy, and all cuddle up on the sofa together.

I am also due to go on Maternity leave in August but I cant wait to get back in practice again and continue my journey in the veterinary profession. 

:)

Before starting my role as a veterinary care assistant, I previously worked for a year as a dog walker/pet sitter. It was this role that made me really pursue a career in animal care. So far, I have learnt so much since joining Vets4Pets and I am now studying to be a Veterinary Nurse and hope to be qualified in 2024.

At the moment, I have a house rabbit called Willow and two pugs called Max and Ozzy. 

After finishing my degree in biochemistry, I knew I wanted to work with animals as I am passionate about animals and science. I am now working as a Veterinary Care Assistant at Vets4Pets which is the perfect job for me. I hope to progress further and become a Registered Veterinary Nurse in the foreseeable future. I have two rabbits: Pepper and Charlie and Freyja the cat. At home I like to relax with after a busy day at work.

Before joining Vets4Pets, I worked at Pets at Home for nearly two years, during which I took a gap year to travel around the world.

I have worked at Vets4Pets for 3 years and have loved my journey with the practice so far; everyday is different and you are constantly learning new things.  

My passions outside of work include: Zumba, painting and spending time with my two dogs Harley the beagle and Winston the puggle.  

I'm fairly new to working in the veterinary industry, I started at Crawley Vets4Pets just under a year ago, after working in a care home for the elderly for many years.

I'm proud to be part of the friendly, close knit team here at Crawley, my favourite part of the job is seeing the animals, and sneaking in the odd cuddles! The highlights have to be holding new-born puppies and kittens.

I'm mum to 2 humans, 2 cats, and a rescue dog, so my spare time is take up looking after them all.

I moved back to Crawley in 2021 after spending 15 years in Alberta, Canada. It's been quite the culture shock and everything seems so small!!

I spent time working in a doggy-day care and animal rescue which gave me a passion for working with animals. I got to witness the best and worst parts of working with rescue dogs which included watching one momma give birth to 6 healthy pups, and the sadness of the longer term residents who struggled to find a home.

I have had 2 rescue dogs Cas and Chevy, and fostered a few others.

Working with Vets4Pets is fun and challenging. I enjoy getting to know our clients and their pets and I will always be available to give your animal love, snuggles and reassurance.

Outside of work I enjoy being creative; Mainly photography and painting. I have a (un)healthy obsession with true crime and think I have seen all of the documentaries on Netfilx at least once so now I've moved on to podcasts.

Hi!

I have two sons so I work part time as a receptionist - I am super organised and love helping people, so the position is perfect for me; I actually started working at Vets4Pets Crawley in 2018, left to have my sons in 2020 and came back in 2022 because I missed it so much.

I love animals, especially rodents, reptiles and exotics. I have had hamsters, rats, a tarantula and even a tortoise in the past; I would love a bearded dragon one day. I currently have two giant African land snails named Sybil and Cecil; snails are actually hermaphrodites, but I think of them as a boy and girl.

In my spare time, when my children finally go to bed, I like to practice my knitting and either play my Nintendo Switch or watch a lot of Netflix!

I have recently joined the team at Vets4Pets. Before starting my role as a veterinary receptionist I worked part time at a beauty salon. I have also been busy raising my family of 3 children.

My time is taken up by my big rescue dog Tommy, who likes to take me on long walks.
