Vets

Emily Cross

Practice Owner and Veterinary Surgeon

Read Emily Cross bio

I graduated from Edinburgh in 2004 having also read zoology at UCL and have been working as a small animal veterinary surgeon ever since. Work initially took me to South Wales and then Kent before covering the length and breadth of England as a locum for the last 3 ½ years. I am thrilled to have the opportunity now to branch out on my own and am looking forward to meeting the animals, and their families, of Watford. I am currently owned by a young Irish terrier called Hattie who keeps me on my toes and believes she is the boss of all that she surveys. When I am not working or busy with Hattie entertainment, I enjoy reading, going to the theatre and travelling, although I suspect the travels will have to be kept within the UK for the foreseeable future.

Read Charlotte Foy bio

Hello, I’m Charlotte. I’ve always had a love of animals and knew I wanted to work with them from a young age. I graduated from Middlesex University in 2012 as a qualified Veterinary Nurse and I have since worked in a number of large practices. I joined Vets4Pets in March 2017 as their Head Nurse. You will mainly see me for nurse consults, however I also care for your pets when they have to stay with us. At home I have two Guinea Pigs, Abra and Omi, as well as my hand-reared kitten Henry (at 10 years old I’m not sure I can still call him that!). I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

Hello there! My name is Mel and I have been in the industry since Feb 2013; I have been a Veterinary Care Assistant here since Jan 2020. I love working with the team here at Watford Vets4Pets - we work so well together and have a good laugh along the way. I am also lucky to get the opportunity to say hello to so many gorgeous, furry faces here.

Outside of work I spend my time weightlifting in the gym, reading in my garden, and avoiding townie life by going for walks in the wilderness.

I am Demelza one of the VCA's. I started my journey here at Vets4Pets Watford as a Client Care Advisor back in 2021, putting my passion for animals into my work has helped me grow as a person and develop the skills I needed to work my way up to becoming a Veterinary Care Assistant. I love meeting all your wonderful pets and I really enjoy making them feel at home and giving them the TLC they need to help them get back onto their little paws.

Non Clinical

Hattie (aka the ginger nut)

"Supervisor"

Read Hattie (aka the ginger nut) bio

My human is Emily, the vet, and I come to work with her every day. She claims it’s so I’m not left on my own, I say it’s so I can keep an eye on proceedings and make sure everything is ship-shape. I work on the principle that everyone loves me (who wouldn’t) and greet everyone with a bounce. I am the official treat tester to ensure only the best is stocked in the consult rooms and at reception. When I’m not checking that everyone is doing their jobs properly I can be found with my faithful chewy bone or practising my most elegant photo poses – on my back, legs in the air is my current favourite.

Lauren Parker

Practice Manager

I've been part of the Vets4Pets Watford team since 2015, and now as Practice Manager, I still absolutely love my role. Every day is rewarding, from working alongside a fantastic team to connecting with our clients and caring for their animal companions, who make each day so fulfilling.

From a young age, I had a strong passion for animals and knew I wanted to work in this field. It's been a privilege to build relationships with our regular clients and share in the joy of caring for their pets.

I look forward to welcoming you and your furry (or not-so-furry) friends!
