Registered Veterinary Nurse

I have been working within veterinary practices since 2007 and I am a registered Veterinary Nurse as of 2012. I am particularly passionate about pet wellbeing and feline behaviour. I am qualified to supply and prescribe a range of veterinary licensed preventative products such as Drontal, Advantage, Panacur etc. I strive to provide clients with personal, friendly, expert advice on preventative care and offer services at an affordable price in the comfort of your own home. Let's make life happier and healthier for all of our pets!

Caroline Bales RVN

Registered veterinary nurse /Office manager

I have worked in practice for 15 years and qualified as a veterinary nurse over 10 years ago. Since then I have had the pleasure of working in several veterinary practices in the North East. I find treating pets is not only about assessing the animal, it’s also about communicating with the owner and working together to make sure everyone is happy. Working at Vets on the Meowve has meant I’m able to meet families and pets in their own homes which has huge advantages. We have such strong bonds with our pets and I love that my jobs involve keeping our much-loved pets happy and healthy.

I qualified from Edinburgh vet school in 2011 and have worked in small animal first opinion practice ever since. I have worked all over the country and eventually settled in the North East as loved the people and the opportunities I was given, being originally from the Isle of Man! I am a true animal enthusiast having wanted to be a vet for as long as I can remember. I enjoy working with dogs, cats, rabbits and small furries, I love them all! I am very excited to meet you all and will so enjoy having the time to get to know you and your beloved pets, I know how much they mean to you!

Emma Blythe SVN

Student Veterinary Nurse

Hey, I’m Emma. I’m currently studying to be a registered veterinary nurse. I have One exam and One practical exam called OSCES left to complete. Covid put a hold on them previously. I’ve worked In veterinary for the last 6 years. It’s the most rewarding job, it doesn’t really feel like a job when your doing something you love every day. I have a gorgeous golden retriever called Kobi so know how important pets are and that they truly are a part of the family. I’m so excited to be working for Vets On the Meowve, it’s a total different way of being a veterinary nurse. Seeing animals in their own home and getting to meet all the wonderful clients. I want to be there for you to make your pet being visited by us as stress free as possible. Can’t wait to meet you all!
