I’ve always had a deep love for animals – especially dogs – having grown up surrounded by a variety of breeds thanks to my mums dog boarding. This passion led me to study veterinary nursing at the RVC, where I discovered physiotherapy and knew it was the path I wanted to follow. I went on to complete a master’s degree in veterinary physiotherapy at Writtle University and later expanded my expertise with qualifications in canine hydrotherapy, an area I’m particularly passionate about. I’m now working at Barkers, which I absolutely love – there’s nothing more rewarding than helping dogs recover, thrive, and enjoy the happy, healthy lives they deserve.’

I was born in Poland, where my love for animals first began, and this passion led me to pursue a career in animal care. I graduated from ARU Writtle University in 2023 and since then I have been running my physiotherapy business along side working at a dog day care and now canine hydrotherapy. The most rewarding part of my work is witnessing the positive changes in their recovery, as they grow stronger and healthier with each session.

I graduated with an Integrated Master’s in Veterinary Physiotherapy in July 2025 and I am dedicated to helping dogs regain strength, comfort, and confidence, allowing them to move freely and enjoy the activities they love. My journey into canine rehabilitation began when my own dog was diagnosed with hip dysplasia and osteoarthritis at a young age. Seeing him struggle sparked my passion for physiotherapy and led to a particular interest in supporting dogs with hip dysplasia. I’m committed to providing kind, individual care and supporting each dog and owner throughout their rehabilitation journey.

I am a qualified veterinary physiotherapist, with experience running a mobile veterinary physiotherapy business, working with horses of all types, from pleasure horses through to competition athletes. I enjoy taking a holistic approach to each horse, considering biomechanics, management, and training alongside hands on treatment. I have a particular interest in research, specifically saddle fit and its impact on equine biomechanics, comfort and welfare.

Outside of clinic work, I am very much a horse person through and through, with a particular passion for natural horsemanship and liberty work, whilst also enjoying competing myself. I am currently raising a 7 month old foal, with the hope of producing her to compete in ridden showing. This process has given me a real appreciation for correct development from an early age and the demands placed on both horse and rider in this sport.

Barkers K9 Hydro-Physio was born from a deeply personal journey. Having become disabled myself in 2020, I discovered first-hand the incredible benefits of hydrotherapy and physiotherapy. It was a game-changer for me, and I knew I wanted to bring that same healing power to dogs in need.

I had previously spent a life time working and rehabilitating horses and ponies suffering with the debilitating condition – laminitis.  Sadly working with horses is no longer an option for me, and I decided to turn my passion for animals towards helping dogs.  I absolutely love watching the improvement in all of our dogs physical and mental wellbeing.
