Our Story

Michelle McGann graduated in 2014 as a Certified IV Veterinary Nurse. Michelle has three cats,  Squirt, Macey and Riley, one dog named Marty and a rabbit named Smokey. Each of them are dearly loved and spoilt. Michelle is a supporter of the G.A.P. (Greyhound Adoption Program). 

Greyhounds make fantastic pets and anyone who is looking to adopt a dog should look here www.grv.org.au and go to the GAP link. Greyhounds or ‘couch potatoes’ make the best pets! Recent media has shone an eye-opening light onto the racing industry, resulting in public outcry and lower adoption. Please continue to support the adoption process of these beautiful dogs, seeking loving homes where they can live their lives free from racing. 

Michelle travelled to Botswana, South Africa, with her cousin & fellow nurse Sam to volunteer at Legodimo Wilderness for conservation in 2011, an experience she will never forget.

Kerry left the corporate world in 2013 to study Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing which she successfully completed 2015. She joined Pound Road Veterinary Clinic in 2014 and loves her new career working as a vet nurse. 

Kerry has a special love for Shelties and currently shares her home with Blaze and Maisie. Kerry also has an interest in birds and has three aviaries with canaries and Gouldian finches. Kerry also has two very spoilt ragdolls named Coco and Casper. 

Kerry’s other passion is fine needlework and she particularly enjoys very intricate Jacobean embroidery.

Hello, I am Sanduni and I am a veterinarian trained overseas. The opprtunity to wok as a veterinary nurse at Pound Road Vet had provided me with a starting ground to familiarise myself with the veterinary industry in Australia while I study for my registration exams with the Australian Veteriary Boards.

Vets at the Pound Road Vet gives me the confidence and support to refresh my knowledge.

My passion for animals started at a young age, growing in a house of 13 cats and any other stray dog or cats needing  shelter, food or love was never turned away. I have been always touched by the pets unwavering loyalty and love.

It is prividleg to be able to deliver the best care and be a part of a team that strives to do the best for the pets while ensuring pet owners are heard in every step of the care journey. I am looking forward to meeting your pet when you are here  next time.

Dianna began her studies in Certification IV Veterinary Nursing last year after leaving her career working as a chef for almost 10 years. 

It was always Dianna’s goal to pursue a career in animal care and welfare, as she had grown up surrounded by all kinds of animals ever since she was small and has always found helping animals to be very rewarding. She currently shares her home with four cats, a rabbit and two chickens. 

Dianna has a strong interest in wildlife care and rehabilitation. In her spare time, she does volunteer work with a number of local rescue groups and organisations. She also assists in Eastern Quoll and Tasmanian Devil breeding programs for their reintroduction to the wild. Just earlier this year she was in Tasmania at the Trowunna Wildlife Sanctuary.

Hi, I’m Jess, a Trainee Veterinary Nurse with over 16 years of hands-on experience in small animal care. My passion for animals started at a young age and turning that into my career has been extremely rewarding. I am currently studying Cert IV in Veterinary Nursing through Gippsland Tafe. My previous experiences within the animal industry has given me exposure to the care of a variety of animals including cats, dogs, reptiles, rodents, birds.

What drives me is the opportunity to make a real difference in the lives of pets and their owners. Every stage of a pets life is rewarding from initial baby visits, through procedures & the golden years. My favourite areas include surgical nursing, inpatient care, and helping to reduce fear and anxiety in our more nervous patients. I am especially fond of supporting animals through their senior years. Of course we can’t forget the owners too. Seeing the strong bond between fur baby and owner is very heartwarming. 

At home, I share my life with my two children, our two dogs —Brutus the Rhodesian Ridgeback and Marley the Lagotto— our two cats —Wilbur the Maine Coon and Louie Persian— and a very quirky bearded dragon named Master Potato!

When I’m not in scrubs, you’ll usually find me spending quality time with my family, sewing and chilling in the lounge watching a new series or playing games.

I feel lucky everyday to be given an opportunity to be part of such a compassionate, dedicated and experienced team. Caring for your pets is a privilege, and I’m here to make their visits as comfortable and positive as possible.
