She has a strong interest in orthopaedic surgery, sports rehabilitation, physiotherapy and chiropractic services.

She lives with her husband, her two sons who come and go,  her horse (Lorenzo), and an assortment of chickens.  

​Olivia is a qualified Cert IV Veterinary Nurse who has worked in specialist hospitals. She has a cat called Danni who is a sassy-pants and loves bringing in leaves and bugs as gestures of her love. Olivia is a very friendly and compassionate person who will always greet you with a smile and makes sure your pet gets lots of love and attention whilst staying with us.

Hayley has her Cert IV in Veterinary Nursing and loves all animals; but her favourite would have to be dogs. She has a goofy Groodle called Benson who is a regular at the local dog park and often runs into patients. Hayley loves to help others around her and is always willing to learn and pick up new skills to expand her knowledge about animal care.

Alicia is a qualified Cert IV Veterinary Nurse. She has been working in the animal care industry since 2005 & Nursing since 2018.

Hannah works part-time at our hospital as an animal attendant. She has no pets at home (yet!) but enjoys feeding cockatoos and other wild birds on her balcony. In her spare time she enjoys studying wildlife, horse-riding, drawing, taekwondo and wildlife photography. A fun fact about Hannah is that she is a published children's book author.  She is also a huge Disney fan!

Found behind the shops in Oakville at the end of 2014, Dorothy/Dotty came to us at just a few weeks old. She was underweight, covered in fleas, riddled with worms and full of cat influenza. The rest is history as she immediately made herself at home, and has since climbed the ranks to become the unofficial boss and overseer of the day-to-day upstairs clinic activities. Now in her senior years, she has settled into a quieter life, preferring to keep to herself upstairs.

Felix is another sick stray that ended up on our care; best known for his love of food, his impressively well-rounded physique, and his tendency to involve himself in absolutely everything. He takes quality control very seriously (particularly when treats are involved) and is hence on a perpetual diet. He can usually be found in reception greeting both people and pets, largely to ensure he receives the level of admiration and attention he believes he deserves.
