POOL HOUSE VETERINARY - Key Persons

Hi I'm Carly and I have a little dog called Rodney who is a Shorkie. In my spare time I like to walk Rodney and go out for dinner and spend quality time with my husband. I also like nights in with friends for a good old catch up. I've always loved animals and always wanted to work with them. When I was offered the role as receptionist I was over the moon, as working with animals is my dream job role.
