Veterinary Surgeon
MRCVS
I have worked as a veterinary nurse for over 20 years, most recently as a theatre nurse and a out of hours emergency nurse. I have worked for Vets4Pets for over 6 years on and off as a locum.
I have lived in Cornwall all my life, i enjoy trekking all over the country with my daughter, partner and her string of show ponies competing and on quieter days we love spending the day at home on the yard with our three dogs.
Since leaving school I have worked with animals, starting at a local donkey sanctuary this then lead me into veterinary nursing and I qualified as a registered veterinary nurse in 2016. I began with Launceston V4P's in 2018 and I have since gone on and carried out my clinical supervisor training meaning I can help our student veterinary nurse's in gaining their qualifications.
My spare time is also filled with animals either spending time and riding my 2 horses JJ and Finley or walking my 3 dogs Freddie, Stanley (springer spaniels) and Willow (jack russell).
Cornish born and bred, I love living near the sea; spending most of my time walking the local coastal paths and I wouldn’t change it for the world! I currently have one cat, Leo and a Beauceron puppy Otis.
Though challenging at times, I enjoy greeting the clients and meeting their pets.
I hope to see you soon!!
I have had a passion for animals since I was young and was always helping out with our animals and with both of my grandparents Beef and Dairy farms. After I left school I went on to learning Animal Management at Duchy College where I completed Level 2 and 3. I have recently completed my final year of FdSc Veterinary Nursing where I thoroughly enjoyed working with the wonderful Launceston Vets4Pets team, which I have learnt so much from already. In my spare time I enjoy meeting up with friends and family and walking my two dogs Fudge (Sprocker) and Tonka (Springer Spaniel).
After working for Pets at Home for 7 and a half years, I transferred to Vets4Pets to do my dream job. I love all animals and now make sure that whilst visiting our practice, they get the love and care that they need.
At home I am a mum of two and also making our house a home we have Betty the Staffie, Pete the Dragon and Remy the Rat.
Being given the opportunity to join this lovely team at Launceston Vets4Pets has made my dreams of moving to Cornwall come true.
I am Southampton born and bred and have worked for Vets4Pets in Southampton since 2014 after my career change from being a cabin attendant.
I love working for Vets4Pets as it fulfils my life long desire to work with animals.
In my role I get to ensure all our clients are getting the best treatment possible for their pets.
Alongside work I am busy exploring Cornwall’s beautiful walks with my crazy Cockapoo called Rupert!
I am Cornish born and bred, Living my entire life in a small village on the River Tamar.
I am a widow with two grown up children and a grandson. I have had lots of animals, mostly dogs and at the moment I have a mini Dachshund called Luna . I love to travel, especially European city breaks. I am also a keen crafter mostly sewing, knitting and crochet.
I have had various jobs over the years, but am now doing my dream job, working with animals and working with the fantastic team we have here at Vets 4 Pets in Launceston.
Having previously worked with children teaching Gymnastics, I wanted to change career and work in an environment more centred around animal health and welfare. I volunteer for Woodside Animal Shelter in Plymouth as well as a Hedgehog and Wildlife Hospital in Newton Abbott.
I'm thoroughly enjoying working with such a friendly team and love getting to know the clients and their pets.
