Jess’s childhood was surrounded with a variety of different animals which hugely contributed to the love and passion for animals and husbandry care she has today. After working in a customer focused background for the past 6 years, whilst studying, Jess decided to academically pursue her ambitions within clinical veterinary care after her completion of her Level 3 Extended Diploma in Animal Management, Derby College Broomfield. She went on to receive an offer to study Veterinary Medicine at The Royal Veterinary College, here she participated in farming, lambing and hand rearing young offspring to help benefit her studies on placements and to broaden her abilities with different species.

Fee has been nursing for fifteen years. She qualified with a diploma in veterinary nursing in January 2013, completed her certificate in veterinary dermatology in 2018 and her certificate in oral health in 2020.

She loves dermatology, parasitology, exotic animals and caring for senior patients, however, her main passion in life is wildlife, in particular, hedgehogs!

She spends most of her time outside of work, hand-rearing, rehabilitating and releasing hedgehogs and educating people on how to make their gardens wildlife friendly.

She has three rescue cats; Murphy, Sid Vicious and Chester, a lurcher called Archie, five Giant African Land Snails called; Ser Davos, Jorah, Khaleesi, Drogon and Robb and various tropical fish, shrimp and water snails. She’s previously owned everything from rats and rabbits to frogs and tortoises.

Animal mad is a slight understatement!

In her spare time, Fee enjoys; curling up with her cats and a good book, cross stitching, gardening, baking, films, photography, music, walking the dog and spending quality time with her two nieces and nephew
