In my role as part-time and locum veterinarian for St Albans Veterinary Practice, I have worked with Chrissy in the period from April 1997 until June 2008. Of all the nurses I have worked with over the past thirty-six years, she is definitely one of the very best. She has excellent people skills: treating clients with respect and caring concern, often going the extra mile to phone them with updates for their animals. She is also a great team person, creating a positive, affirmative atmosphere and looking for ways to assist and encourage vets and nurses. She has excellent veterinary nurse skill anticipating what vets will need and preparing ahead. She is also very alert in monitoring hospitalised animals, noting any deterioration and taking appropriate action. She takes responsibility for overall excellence in the practice and often takes initiative in improving the workflow and recommending improvements. She is a person of integrity and high moral standards. I highly recommend Chrissy for any position in a veterinary practice, but also I am sure that she will be a great asset in any fast pace business that requires a manager with excellence in customer service.

“5 stars is simply not enough to describe how amazing Chrissy is!!! I wouldn’t have anyone else look after my babies. My dog and cat love her to bits. And the convenience & affordable cost is unbeatable. We are lucky to have her here in Christchurch.”

One of our clients had a stray cat make itself at home on their property. They had grown quite fond of it, and as they were about to move homes, they booked us in to groom the cat, and give it a pet health check. We scanned the cat and discovered it had been microchipped, so contacted the original owners via NZCAR. While our client was disappointed they could not keep the cat, everyone was happy that it was reunited with its original owners.

“Chrissy did such an amazing job with our two cats, Mojo and Lily, today. She even recommended some good food for Lily’s teeth and good flea treatments too. Thanks again, Chrissy, you’re amazing! Definitely making it a permanent thing every 6-8 weeks.”

“My fur babies are delighted to have Chrissy come to their home and attend to all their needs. Chrissy has a warm, compassionate manner, not only to her furry friends but to the human ones as well! Her excellent veterinary nursing skills, along with the above attributes make Chrissy the ideal person to look after all aspects of care of our pets. Thank you, Chrissy. You are unique.”
