Hi, My name is Caitlin and I have joined Rouse Hill Family Vets as a trainee nurse. My fur family consists of Hunter, my 2-year-old border collie, a lot of fish, and a princess parrot called Biscuit. I love to spend time with them on the weekends. 

I started in the industry in 2019 by completing my certificate 2 in animal studies, I then completed my certificate 3 in animal studies in 2020. I am currently completing my certificate 4 in Veterinary Nursing.

I love coming into work and getting to interact with all the amazing clients at Rouse Hill Family Vets and be able to look after their fur babies. I also love that Rouse Hill Family Vets is a fear-free clinic and makes sure that their patients’ emotional well-being is being looked after just as much as their physical well-being.

I completed the Certificate III Animal Studies in 2019. I have volunteered at both not-for-profit rescues and pounds, as well as a working farm. I have a keen interest in animal behaviour, specifically with rescue animals and equine.
