My Mission

I’m Kate — an RVT and VTS (ECC) who’s passionate about making a real difference in vet med and supporting the people who make this work possible.

I’ve spent years in emergency & critical care, and what keeps me going isn’t just the medicine — it’s the heart behind it. I love supporting teams, calming chaos, and helping patients get another chance.

After everything I’ve walked through in my own life, I know what resilience looks like. I bring that same steady, compassionate energy into every clinic I work with. My goal is to make your day easier, your team stronger, and your patients safer.

Locum & Relief
Work

When your clinic is short-staffed or facing a surge in emergency cases, I provide reliable locum and relief support as an experienced RVT and VTS (ECC)

From routine patient care to advanced monitoring and emergency stabilization, I step in seamlessly to keep your team supported and your caseload flowing safely.

Virtual Case
Support

When your team is facing a challenging emergency or critical patient, real-time guidance can make all the difference.

 

I offer virtual support through phone or video, helping teams navigate stabilization, monitoring, anesthesia concerns, and ECC decision-making with confidence and clarity.

Staff
Training

Build a stronger, more confident veterinary team with customized training in ECC skills, advanced venous access, anesthesia safety, patient monitoring, and real-life emergency scenario practice. 

Training is interactive, supportive, and designed to elevate everyday care in general practice and emergency settings.

Continuing
Education

I offer practical, case-based CE sessions focused on emergency and critical care, anesthesia safety, advanced technical skills, and real-life clinical scenarios. 

Designed for veterinary teams of all experience levels, these sessions strengthen confidence, improve protocols, and enhance patient outcomes in both GP and emergency settings.
