Our Story
​
Established in 2022, we are a family-run independent mobile vet in the Scottish Borders. This means we come to you and provide experienced veterinary care tailored to your pets needs in the comfort of your own home.
We would like to introduce clients and their pets to a different approach to their care; minimising stress, maximising time spent with you and your pet for more personal veterinary care.

Meet The Team
I grew up in a small village on the West Coast, where I spent my weekends playing rugby and working on a local farm. I graduated from Glasgow University in 2002 and after spending the first years in mixed practice, I decided to concentrate on small animal medicine and surgery. I have worked in practices all over the country, dealing with a great variety of cases. I have an interest in cancer medicine, and have a masters from the University of Edinburgh. I am married to a vet nurse and we live in the Beautiful Scottish Borders with our two dogs Nettle and Bruce. Outside of work I enjoy time with my daughter, hiking in the hills, fishing in the rivers and playing the guitar.
I grew up on a small farm in Canada, where I graduated as a Veterinary Technologist in 2008. I developed an interest in surgical veterinary nursing and anesthesiology and I moved to Scotland in 2016. I've most recently worked as a Surgical Veterinary Nurse at University of Edinburgh. I now raise our future vet and help to keep things running smoothly. After seeing mobile veterinarians in Canada benefit their communities for many years, I knew we had to be a part of something special.
I love getting to know all the amazing clients and pets of the Borders.
