🐾 How fabulous is Freddie?!

At 17 years young, Freddie is still full of beans! With slightly high blood pressure and the odd creak here and there, most of us can empathise with his age related issues 🫠

Happily Freddie is doing really well with daily medication and regular health checks - and we’re sure he could teach some of our youngsters a thing or two about living life to the full 🥰

🐾 Koko and Mocha 🐾

We started visiting the lovely Koko earlier this year when his mobility began to deteriorate, and have since seen him monthly for pain management. We're so pleased at how well he is doing now, and its really lovely to be greeted so enthusiastically by both Koko and his companion Mocha when we visit! 🥰🥰

We'd love to pretend that Koko is looking adoringly at us in these photos, but we're willing to accept that the tennis ball might rank just slightly above us on his list of favourite things! 🤣🥎

Over the next few days, as firework season starts with a bang, don’t forget that outdoor pets may need a bit of extra support too.

As prey species, rabbits, guinea pigs and other small animals need to be able to tuck themselves away somewhere which feels safe and secure if they’re feeling worried.

The Rabbit Welfare Association has some good tips to help you prepare:

As firework night draws closer, don’t forget that some of our feline friends might not be too keen on everything it entails!

Meet the Team 👋

At Vets2You, we’re a small team of three vets and three nurses - all of us very passionate about providing fantastic care to our patients in the comfort of their own homes.

Most of us will be familiar faces to you all, whilst others are (slightly) more recent additions.

Meet the Team 👋

Last but not least, is Sarah 🤩

Sarah graduated from the Royal Veterinary college in 2010 and joined the Vets2You team in 2017.

She has a post-graduate certificate and special interest in our more unusual pet species, including reptiles, birds and small mammals (though she also loves seeing all our regular cat and dog patients too!) 🐓🦎🐹

In recent years Sarah has also spent time working with native British wildlife and in a zoo! 🦓 🦍

Sarah enjoys all aspects of visiting patients at home as part of the Vets2You team, and is particularly passionate keeping our older patients comfortable in their golden years 💛

Meet the Team 👋

Say hello to Rachel 🤩

Rachel is the newest addition to our home visiting team, having started working in the Natterjacks practice in 2018 and earning her ‘Registered Veterinary Nurse’ qualification in 2023. She joined us as an official member of the team earlier this year, having previously helped us out with holiday and maternity cover ☺️

Like Emma, Rachel also splits her time between working in the practice, and travelling around in our van - so you know your animals will be in familiar hands if they’re in need of surgery or a stay in hospital!

When shes not at work her life consists of running around after her toddler (who has an impressive turn of speed!) and walking her dog Leo. 🐶

Rachel loves doing home visits for our wonderful clients and their adorable pets, and is a real asset to our team 🥰

Meet the Team 👋

Next up is Bellin 🤩

Raised in Dorset, Bellin graduated from the University of Liverpool in 2013 with a degree in Veterinary Science. She cut her teeth in various small animal practices before joining the Natterjacks team in 2021.

She loves both medicine and surgery, meaning that she’s perfectly suited to her current combination of being out on the road with us, and ample time working in the practice to get her surgical fix!

She is married to her teenage sweetheart and has three children, three dogs, four chickens, six ducks and a sheep at home. When she’s not looking after her family and pets, she enjoys baking, gardening (look out for her name and beautiful prize-winning dahlias in the floral tent at the Dorset County Show! 🌼) , sewing and running. 🏃‍♀️

Meet the Team 👋

Say hello to Emma 🤩

Emma spent two years at a referral hospital in Hampshire before joining the Natterjacks practice in 2017, going on to complete her veterinary nursing training in 2020. She now splits her time between the practice and travelling around with Vets2You - meaning that your pets will have a familiar face to greet them if they do need to go into the clinic.

She also has a passion for feline care, having spent five years working at Cats Protection. Her experience of working with a cats of a variety of temperaments mean that we consider Emma to be very own cat whisperer! 🤫 🐈‍⬛

When she’s not working, she loves trampolining, pub quizzes, board games, seeing friends and playing the guitar. 🎸
