Meet The Team

Richard is the Director and started The Cattle Vet in 2020. He grew up with a farming background breeding pedigree Welsh Blacks but has now got Pedigree Simmentals on his family farm. When he has time he is keen to throw a white coat on, and showing his Simmentals.

Jon joined our team in the summer of 2022. He graduated from the Royal Veterinary College in London. Jon is a petrol head if he isn't watching grand prix, he is tinkering on his motorbike. 

Jake is our resident foot trimmer, he joined the team in June 2024. Jake works closely with the team on mobility scoring and lameness. You'll often find Jake walking his pooch Lola or out running with his local running club. 

Jess joined us in August 2024 after graduating from the Royal Veterinary College in London. In her spare time you may find Jess down the beach padel boarding or walking her pooch Belle.

Rebecca graduated from the Royal Veterinary College in 2024, before completing a Farm Animal Internship at the University of Cambridge from 2024 to 2025. She joined The Cattle Vet in May 2026 and is enjoying being part of the team. Outside of work, Rebecca is a keen masters swimmer and enjoys going to the gym. 

Anna was the first member of staff to join the team and works in reception and head of accounts. She has been in the farming sector her whole life. Horses are her passion which keep her busy competing at weekends but when she makes it on farm, she does love a cuddle with a cow.

Hannah is our Practice Director. She joined us in May 2026 after working in the local veterinary community for over 10 years. She was really excited about having the opportunity to work with Richard and the team and has enjoyed getting to know our farm clients. Hannah loves being outdoors with her family and exploring new places in her car roof tent! 

Amber is part of our reception team! Amber moved to Pembrokeshire from Essex 5 years ago, where she shortly after discovered cows! After working on a dairy farm for 3 years rearing calves and milking, she came to us. Other than being calf crazy, in her little spare time you'll find her riding her horses or busy with her wedding makeup business. She is also currently training to be an ATT! 

Kate is our Authorised Tuberculin Tester (ATT). She helps in the office when she is not TB testing. Most weekend she is out and about competing with horses. When not competing she has a herd of pedigree blondes and sheep keeping her busy at home.
