Holly Mountford
Student Veterinary Nurse
I joined Quarry House Vets at the end of 2020 after previously working in a kennels and cattery. I enjoy my job because it feels great to see the pets feel better and know that I helped them. When I’m not at work I like to take my dog Archie the Dorkie (dachshund x yorkie) out for walks and go to the gym

Ali Savage-Murgatroyd
Student Vet Nurse & Environmental Lead
I joined Quarry House Vets in November 2024 after working at another veterinary practice as a Vet Assistant.
I moved to Quarry House Vets to be more hands on with the patients and to hopefully become qualified as a RVN.
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my husband and my family.
