🐾💗 Celebrating our amazing vet nurses! 💗🐾
This Vet Nurse Week, starting 5-9 October, we’re celebrating the incredible people at Ellenbrook Animal Clinic who help keep our patients safe, comfortable and cared for every single day. 🐶🐱
Today, we’re introducing Kathryn, Maddie and Carissa — three of the friendly faces who help care for your pets at Ellenbrook Animal Clinic. 🐶🐱
✨ Kathryn — Kathryn is our wonderful Head Veterinary Nurse and one of the familiar faces that helps keep our patients in safe and caring hands.
Kathryn brings a wealth of knowledge, skill and compassion to everything she does. She is known for her gentle and reassuring approach, especially when caring for patients who may be nervous or need a little extra TLC. Her experience, dedication and genuine love for animals make her an invaluable part of our team — and we’re very lucky to have her looking after our patients and supporting our nursing team every day. 🩺
🐾 Maddie — Maddie is one of our wonderful very experienced Veterinary Nurses and a much-loved member of the Ellenbrook Animal Clinic team. With her genuine love for animals and naturally caring nature, Maddie is dedicated to making sure every patient feels safe, comfortable and well cared for during their time with us. Her calm and friendly nature makes her a wonderful support to both our patients and their families. She brings warmth, compassion and plenty of TLC to everything she does, making her a valued part of our nursing team. 🐶
💗 Carissa - Carissa joined the Ellenbrook Animal Clinic team in 2026 after completing her Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing in 2025. Since joining us, she has quickly become a valued part of our nursing team, bringing enthusiasm, compassion and a genuine love for animals to her role. She is especially interested in fear-free care, helping our patients feel as comfortable, calm and safe as possible during their visits. We're so excited to have Carissa as part of our team and look forward to watching her continue to grow and develop her skills as a veterinary nurse. 💙
💕 Jess - For those of you who have been part of the Ellenbrook Animal Clinic family from the very beginning, you’ll know Jess. She has been with us from the start, helping shape the clinic and caring for countless patients and their families along the way. She is dedicated, compassionate, knowledgeable and always willing to go the extra mile for her patients. Jess is currently enjoying some very special time on maternity leave, we’re absolutely thrilled for her and her growing family.
We’re so lucky to have them on our team!
